As the Standard Oil Company points out in an announcement else where tn this issue the Government lias adopted boiling points as a standard test of gasoline value. The gravity test was discarded because it told nothing of the real quality of gasoline. It was the needs of the war which caused the Government to seek a standard test for aviation and gener al motor gasoline as part of its fuel conservation program. The demand for gasoline and other petroleum products has become so .great that some action was necessary. Conse quently, last summer President Wil son appointed a committee under the directum of the'Fuel Administration to adopt standard specifications for gasoline. This committee stated In its report that there would be no gravity limi tations in the specifications for either aviation or motor gasoline because it had been found that gravity was of little or no value in determining the quality of gasoline. The stand ards adopted were based on boiling points. Gasoline is known to the refiner as one member of the petroleum family. He distinguishes each mem ber of the family, not by gravity, but by boiling points. Gravity is a fleet ing standaj-d of test, but boiling points are unchanging in their value and always determine the quality of the product. Knowing them the re finer can keep his product uniform and reliable. A boiling point is the temperature at which a liquid will begin to boil or vaporize. In distilling a given quantity of gasoline the refiner ascertains at ! at point each 10 per cent will boil, until the entire quantity is evapor ate. 1 or distilled. In this way he determines what is known as the initial boiling point, as well as all intervening boiling points in the chain, up to the maximum, high boil ins point. The ideal gasoline has a contin uous and uniform chain of boiling points, and should have enough low points to evapoize freely and to give easy starting. There should also be the right proportion of medium and high boiling points for quick accel eration, full power and long mileage. As combustion starts .with lowest boiling points and flashes on through tiie gas, the continuous, uniform chain is necessary for instan taneous full-powered combustion. Only straight-distilled, all-refinery gasoline can have this full and un broken chain. The United States Government's Standard Specifications, based on Doiiing points, are generally con sidered in the light of conditions to day as the most practical standard for gasoline. They insure an efficient and satisfactory fuel, produced with due regard for conservation, and sold at a reasonable price. All Red Crown gasoline now being supplied on the Pacific Coast Is re fined to conform to these specifica tions. It has a full, uniform chain of boiling points necessary for easy starting, quick, smooth acceleration, dependable power and long mileage.

GARY WIN IN ROAD WORK COMPETITION GARY 3 1-2 TON TRUCKS Three Gary S-Ton Trucks, purchased by Kay County, Oklahoma, for public road work after a competitive test with five other leading makes of trucks. We now have twenty truckst on the way like those shown above, all equipped with 3Vs yard steel lined bodies, with Hydraulic Hoist, that we are bringing in for road construction work. These wll be sold under the factory's abso lute guarantee for the full period of one year, GARY steel products lead the world. GARY Trucks are in the same class. Don't chance an unknown quantity. REPORT OF W. C. NORRIS CO. Here Is the report of the W. C. Norris Motor Sales Company, of Tulsa, Oklahoma, on the three trucks shown above, and covering their experience with motor trucks in general and GARY trucks in particular. "We have just closed the deal with the County Commissioners of Kay County for three GARY 3-ton trucks. We competed with five other makes and outpulled them all. The performance of the trucks we frankly state Is marvelous. The "H" and "HU," 2 and 2-ton models with four speed transmission outpull, overpower and outclass everything in their rated capacity; while the 3 ton is even greater in pulling power and load carrying capacity. We consider your worm drive, semi-floating Sheldon Axle as the only safe and sure form of construction for hard usage and to withstand the strata and abuse to which a truck is subjected in the oil fields and kindred lines of work. Our observation, experience and knowledge of actual results in meeting oil field requirements, with heavy, loads and no roads, convinces us that GARY TRUCKS can be relied upon In every In stance and will deliver a long life of service at a nominal upkeep and . low cost of operation. We are for the GARY TRUCKS strong and shall concentrate our future efforts exclusively on the GARY line. W. C. NORRIS MOTOR SALES CO., (Signed) N. D. Southerland, Gen. Mgr. Note: The W. C. Norris Motor Sales Company are a million dollar concern, and one of the largest In Oklahoma. After several years' experience with other lines of trucks, they have dropped them all and rely exclusively on GARY Trucks for heavy duty oil field work and for all purpose usage. READ WHAT YOUR NEIGHBORS SAY. Can Yon Beat It? Mansfield, Wash., January 29, 1919. Gentlemen: You want to know how we like the lH-ton Gary Truck we bought In Spokane last July. We are more than pleased with it. We thought at the time we had bought the best, but we really got more than wexpected. We have done lots of hauling and the truck is in just as good shape as ever. We have 'done more hauling than trucks lots larger, and with less expense'. Yours truly, (Signed) W. F. PENNINGTON. Mansfield, Wash. BREWSTER-BRIDGEPOKT GROWERS, IXC. Producers, Packers, and Sliiors of Fine Apples. Brewster, Wash., August 1, 1918. Gentlemen: The 2-ton Gary Truck that we purchased from you In June, 1917, has been in service continuously since that time, and during the busy months of the fruit season we have operated the truck 24 hours a day. We have had no trouble,, requiring no repairing or duplicate ports and did not have the truck in the shop until we sent it in to have the new tires put on. We consider this a wonderful record and evidence of the highest standard of design, material and workmanship, to outwear a set of solid tires over rough roads, without having any repairing to the me chanical parts of the truck. , The truck has been handled by one of our former teamsters, without truck experience, and he worked the truck over the rough roads that one will find mostly In our section. The GARY has the power and never fails to deliver the load. We think it is the best truck built, and give it our unqualified endorsement. Yours very truly, BREWSTER-BRIDGEPORT GROWERS, INC., (Signed) Sam Berry, Sec. Brewster, Wash. There is a Gary Truck for every purpose, one to five-ton sizes. All of the highest quality of design and construc tion.
