TjpliolU Deaths Decrease. WASHINGTON, Doc. 28. Tho ty 'phoid fever death rate last year was the lowest ever recorded in the regis tration area, comprising 85 per cent of tho country's population, the cen sus bureau has reported; feeds thoseOIl STARVED FORDS OIICOMPANIS 1100 -EORD: lubrication i It is safe to say that 50 per cent of the Fords now running are oil-starved. ' . ' Not that the average Ford owner doesn't keep the oil in his crankcase at the proper level. He does. But a crankcase full of oil doesn't help unless that oil gets to the bearings especially those crucial points in Ford lubrication: the wrist-pin bearings and the upper half of the cylinder walk. "' The Ford splash system is an excellent system, but its success is dependent upon the use of an oil which will distribute properly to the bearing surfaces. Our research Laboratories have been experimenting with Ford lubrication for years. They have embodied the results of their experiments in Zerolene "F" for Fords a new oil which represents a big step forward in Ford, lubrication. We make the following specific claims for Zerolene "F" for Fords claims which we have demonstrated repeatedly in the laboratory and on the road, and which you can readily demonstrate for yourself: . That Zerolene "F" for Fords gets to the bearings and actually lubricates where many oils fail because not propcrlyi adapted to the special conditions en countered in the Ford motor. ,; That Zerolene "F" for Fords deposits so little car bon that your Ford will be able to go considerably farther before valve-grinding or carbon-removal op erations are necessary. That Zerolene "F" for Fords, because of the supe rior lubrication it gives, will enable your Ford to deliver better gasoline mileage than you have been getting. That because it lubricates consistently better, the use of Zcrolene "F" for Fords will lessen friction and wear, reduce up-keep costs and lengthen the life of your Ford. - Zfrolcnt "F" is a clear, bright golden oil that looks its Duality. Yet its price at service stations, garages, and other eaters is not more, but less than any of the special Ford oils hitherto offered to the public. A Ford, well treated, is an A-l transportation investment. ProteH YOUR investment by proper lubrication. f f aiUNUAKU Ulb tUMrAWI CENTRAL POINT, Dec. 18.
