Gasoline Once a Waste Product.

In the time Of the early coal oil lamp
many dangers lurked in the poorly re-
fined oil, and every effort was made u
increase the yield of high flash kero'

then little more than a waste product
to be disposed Of when possible OF
thrown away and allowed to evaporate
or even run into the rivers with the
resulting danger of fire.
