TONED.
IS THERE Danger or OVER PRODUCTION:
The iuel users of the entire world
are eagerly watching the oil develop
ments of the southwest with the hope
that Il sufficient territory will be de-
ve]oped to insure an abundant supply
to warrant the change OF furnaces
from the fuel now used to oil, which is
the cheapest, cleanest and best fuel
known. The greater its production.
the greater will be the demand and
hence better price. 1t has not been
many years since coal and coke were
valueless because fuel users were not
satisfied of an abundant supply. The
same will be true relative to oil, last
but not least.
now WILL 1T HANDLE ITS PRODUCT
Through its own storage tanks. pipe
line, tank cars and selling agents,
thus obtaining the greatest value by
selling to the consumer direct.
