What about
m
Chemical analysis shows that all lubricating oils are
composed of about 85 carbon and 15,"S hydrogen In
chemical combination.
All lubricating oils form carbon when burned In the
combustion chamber. The Important thing to deter
mine Is the amount and kind of carbon formed by
the oil.
Some oils form a good deal of carbon, some a small
amount; some produce hard, flinty carbon which will
cause a great deal of trouble; others produce a soft,
flaly carbon that will do no damage.
The Important factors determining the amount and
kind of catbon formed by a lubricating oil are the
crude from which it Is made, the process and care of
refining It, Its purity and stability.
Advantages ofCrtide and Vacuum Refining
Great care Is exercised In selecting the crudes from
which Zerolene Is made, to secure only those which
contain the most desirable lubricating values and at
the same time as little as possible, If any, of the un
desirable hydrocarbons such as wax and asphaltum.
In selecting crudes for Zerolene, the Standard Oil
Company has the advantage of Its own large produc
tion of practically every type of crude oil. For this
reason the company is not compelled to use any par
tlcular crude because It happens to be the only on
available.
These selected crudes, carefully refined by our own
patented, high-vacuum process, produce In Zerolene,
oils ol the itlghost lubricating value, which, when
burned In the combusdon chamber, develop a very
small amount of carbon of a soft, flaky nature, which
can do no harm and usually blows out entirely with
the exhaust.

Westfall, June 18, 1922
Editor Ontario Argus, Dear Sir:
"I noticed In my last Argus that
Mr. Clagget mado mention of an
editorial in your paper of Juno 8th
which from some cause of) other did
not reach us. I would appreciate
tho favor if you would send me a
number of that issue if you have
any1 left, as I read every editorial lit
all the papers which come to our
place. I am rather enlightened on
this matter where Mr. Clagett tells
us In his letter published in your
last Argus that this county does not
pay tho i wages of our "County
Agent", all It pays Is tho running ex
penses of carrying on tho work,
which this year amounts to $2600,
anu his salary really is paid by the
state. But where does tho state
derive the money from only from
tho taxpayers of tho state. So
where Is tho difference, whether the
county pays our county agent direct
or thru the stato treasurer? The
effect of which is all the same upon
tho over-burdened taxpayers of this
county. As I am able to flgtirb it
up, it amuonts to $5200 dollars per
annum, double tho amount of what
I thought it would be, according to
my Information concerning this mat
ter a considerable addition to the
already fulnous burden of our tax
payers. I have nothing personal
against our county agent. I am
told he Is a fine, live young fellow,
nnd do not blame him for holding an
easy Job. I only wish I could get
his Job, It beats cow-punching.
Respectfully,
Charles Becker.
