OF the petroleum industry. That some re-
forms are an urgent necessity, 10 the
opinion Of Albert Sommer, an authority
on this subject. One Of the most striking
examples is gasoline, the use OF which
has assumed vast proportions since the
introduction OF the explosion engine. 1t
represents the lightest fraction Of crude
petroleum and Is still largely sold by Its
specific gravity. which In nine out Of ten
specifications is the principal quality de-
manded.
1t has been often said that gasoline
should have specific gravity Of not less
snan,eS shan 81 degrees gree ,. or 20 degrees baums
for actual service. the demand IL made.
why is such Importance attributed to It?
1t has developed. according to Mr.. Som
mer. into habit of oil refiners to Judge
same crude product by specific gravity; !;
the still man judges the progress Of his
operation by the change in specific gravi-
ty Of the distillates which gradually come
of the condenser. For this reason it
has become habitual to also designate
those fractions to the outside world by
their specific gravity. and for the con-
sumner to base his purchase on it-a
course which Is no longer justified.
The world is drawing its supplies today
from a great many various oil fields
The crude oils are neither physically nor
chemically Identical with one another
An oil which contains less hydrogen to
the molecule than another will be the
heavier oil. Fractions obtained from
two different crude oils, from Pennsyl-
vania and Texas. might boil between the
same temperatures. and yet differ con-
siderably In specific gravity. as much as
20 degrees Baume. For all uses Of gaso-
line. without exception. its value is based
chiefly on its volatility, because in all gas
engines the ultimate combustion Is q
gas reaction.
vancy of specific gravity as a criterion
for the actual use Of gasoline products,
there is given below a comparative distil-
lation test between two naphthas of diff
ferent origin. both Of which will, OF
course, give equally good results In any
motor. but one of which would be reject
ed by most Of the present specifications
on account Of its low specific gravity.

The seal was suffering from toothache
