The same old policy of attempting to extract a
pound of flesh that the S. P. is so good at when
trying to put over its railroad deals. What the
people of Oregon should say to the Southern Pa-

less trouble all around. And I believe the
answer is this new Zerolene ‘F ’ for Fords I’ve
been using. It costs less than the oil I’d been
using, but it actually seems to lubricate

Zerolene “F ” for Fords gets to all the parts
requiring lubrication—especially the wrist-
pin bearings and upper half of the cylinder
walls.
Zerolene “F ” for Fords is made by the
Standard Oil Company’s patented vacuum
process. It deposits a minimum of carbon,
and because it lubricates b e tte r it enable«
the engine to develop a noticeable increase
of power over and above what Ford owners
have been accustomed to expect.
