Measured
by Miles-
Or, What Price
Qasoline?"
The number , of miles you get
from your motor the quality
' of its performance the cost
of its upkeep all these are
part of the price of gasoline.
That's why Union
is the most economical
gasoline on the mar
ket because its qual
ity is highest. Yet its
price is never more
than that of any good
gasoline.
And Union Gaso
line is non-detonating.
Which means that its
power-impulsesare not
hammer-like blows.
They follow through!
This means much to
a motor. It means, for
one thing, quick-starting.
Also, swift, vibrat
ionless pick-up, and
even, gliding speed.
If a better gasoline
were possible it would
be made by the Union
Oil Company. And
sold wherever you see
the sign, "Union Gas
oline." At .Union Oil
service stations and in
dependent dealers of
the first class everywhere.

"The pipe line department of the
General Petroleum Corporation has
a mileage of over 400 miles in Cali
fornia, and last year handled over
25.OOO.0uO barrels of oil. In pump
ing it over the mountains it is
necessary to have stations which
heat the oil In the winterso that
it will flow more freely. Oil Is
routed and dispatched through the
pipe lines in much the same man
ner that trains are dispatched on
the railroad.
"In this connection, a recent re
port showed that in connection
with its pipe lines, the General
Petroleum Corporation operates
approximately 1.000 miles of tele
phone and telegraph wire, with
oiMl telephones and six telegraph
offices. With the aid of these in
struments and close observation of
tank gauges, the operators and
engineers are able to operate the
pumpa In synchronism, and the
dispatcher Is able to keep In
touch with every barrel of ojl In
transit."

HEALTH BULLETIN
Who WMehe For Wnlrr?
(Htutv Hoard of Heulth.)
In the country, each household
Is responsible for its own water
supply. Almost every home has
Its own well, pump or spring. It
Is up to the householder to see
that the water Is pure; If It Is
contaminated, U rarvly affects
moro than a few people.
Towns and cities supply water
to hundreds or tliotiminila of peo
ple. The home which gets city
water-pupply run not Itself look
after the purity ot the water, but
must rely on the city lo see that
nothing harmful comes with it.
One of the flint dullex of a city
Is lo see that the water which
It furnishes it citizens, U not
dangerous.
There aro three great water-
borne diseases; typhoid, dysentery
and cholera. In past ages, before
attenton was paid to the Import
ance of clean water, recurring
epidemics of these diseases deci
mated cities almost everywhere.
Long before their Infective na
ture was recoKiiixed, It was found
that by providing pure water, the
epidemics could he stopped, and
that the d luetics grew much less
or even disappeared. The leanon
was learned; hut even now vigil
ance Is the price of freedom 'from
dinense.
Two things must h done hv
.every city providing water. The
j first Is to pick Us source ho that,
i nn far as possible, H shall he free
from all likely contamination.
This means that not only ahull the
water he pure nn a iimihI thing,
hut that It must be controlled
so that no filth can get Into It.
A few yvars ago there was n

Above all, the city must keep Its
water controlled by regular ex

The roast, for instance first a quick

then a slow cooking heat as in a fireless
cooker. That's in the oven.

morning's prunes are stewing leisurely

Dinner is being prepared and it must
be watched, too. l or each different dish
requires a different method, a different
heat. One fire will not do for all. '
That's one reason why electric ranges,
with their instantly regulated and easily
controlled cooking temperatures, from a
sizzling, searing heat in one place to a
just-keep-it-alive glow in another, are so
favored by good cooks. Electricity makes
good cookery better, and easier.
And that, plus the surprising economy
of electrical cooking, is a reason why near
ly one thousand eight hundred kitchens
in the territory served by this company
are now fuel-less and ash-less. Nearly one
thousand eight hundred electric ranges
have made them so.
