No matter how many ocean of lubricants this Company pro duces, when It drills an oil well by the rotary process It has to . go back to the first lubricant of til mud. These, men were plowing up clay for mud when they struck a 700-pound fossil skull of hairy tusker not quite ele phant or mammoth who shared Pliocene California with the three-toed horse and sabre tooth tiger and was already pioneer distrustful of the younger generation, when the ordinary mastodon arrived. 1 University of California sci entists termed It a new sub species and named it mastodon vexillarius that is to say, sUnU-ard-beutc. . . The oil industry is always close to man's eternal y titer, days. Its drill sinks through the ages, the eons, to the time wbea darkness was upon the face of the deep. Compared to the or ganisms from which Nature made oil compared to petro leum itself compared, yon might even say, to the gasoline in your car, our mastodon was just a youngster, some 990 mil lion years their junior.
