Yet, when this Company went Into Saudi Arabia to search for new oil reserves, it discovered that the camel's foot was at least equally important. That foot spread over sand in such t way that it exerted only 12 pounds pressure to the square inch thus making the sand help the camel. Oilfield production requires the transport of heavy loads sometimes as much as 18 tons, or much too much for any cameL Our problem was to invent an oversize mechanical camel which turned out to be truck with tires so big the square-inch load was exactly that of a camel's foot. On your car these tires would reach above its hood nearly double its overall width. By such quaint lessons learned of the camel, the South American Indian and the Eski mo this Company has helped add to the nation's oil reserves. Probably nothing exceeds the influence of known reserves when it comes to keeping down the price of gasoline the life, blood of your car.
