crude. there win be an immediate rise
in price. We have been In such a
period since last July and may con-
tinue In IL for many months yet. un-
til the new gushing wells are struck.
when the supply will Increase and
the price fall.
We never have been able to get
away from this supply demand re-
gine, and never will. We are in the
midst of II today in the steel world.
and IL promises to continue there for
four or perhaps FIVE years. There is
an unparalleled demand for steel from
the warning nations. from our own
railroads and from all of our indus
tries. With such a demand we can
not expect anything but rising prices.
Coats so Cents More a Week.
Suppose a man drives his car 5000
miles a year, which is a fair average.
On the basis of ten miles to the gal
Ion, gasoline at the rate of fifteen
cents a gallon will cost him SIS a
year. At 20 Ia cents gallon, its
present wholesale price, the differ
ence is only s4250. or in round num-
bers, eighty cents a week. Certainly
this difference is not sufficient to
cause any reasonable person to give
up the pleasures and practical bene-
mt of motoring. Many say they will,
but wait until the FIRST hot spell
strikes them and until they are sit
ting on the porch swelterine. 1t will
be the garage and the car no matter
what the price of gasoline II.
If motorists really want to econo-
mize there are a great many ways in
which the saving Of gasoline may
be accomplished. Men are careless
about the way they use II. For In
stance, they will stop to buy q cigar
and leave the motor running. intend
ing to be back immediately, but per-
haps being detained for several min
utes in the store or on the street.
All this time the motor has been con-
suming fuel-but registering nothing
on the odometer.
In figuring the cost, the motorist in
variably fails to account for such in
stances as these. He divides the miles
run by the gasoline used and says.
This car will run only SO many miles
on the gallon"
To people of this sort II would be
well for them to bear in mind that
at home when they leave the room
they turn of the electric light so as
to reduce their light bills and it would
be well to practice the same economy
with their car.
Help Foster Impression.
Short-sishted statesmen also help to
foster this impression when they tell
their prospective customer that the
car will make so many miles to the
gallon. endeavoring TO create the I'm.
preston that their car is the mosx
economical on the market in the mat
ter of gasoline consumption.
With a gasoline shortage. the nat
ural solution is to turn to kerosene.
There Is today a surplus of kerosene.
1t is drug on the market, II is be-
ing stored in large quantities by those
refneries that can afford to buy stor-
age tanks. So long a we make gaso-
line from crude we make kerosene.
You cannot get the gasoline and not
the kerosene. Today kerosene is SELL
ing at eight cents per gallon and
gasoline at twenty-three and a half
cents.
This kerosene can be used as fuel
II possesses more heat units tan
gasoline, but the difficulty lies in
breaking it up and vaporizing 1T. Heat
is generally used for this purpose

0ldfeld Smashes Mile Record.

The latest record to suffer at the hands
of Barney Oldield is the worlds record
for one mile on a one-mile track. At
Los Angeles at Ascot Park on March
ls. Oldheld reeled of a mile In his Fire
stone tire-equipped racing car In ex-
sctly forty-five seconds, thereby estab-
fishing a new worlds record for that
distance. So great is Oldheld's faith in
Firestones that he uses them in every
race in which he participates.

business is in big money and unless

serious problem that confronts then
and just how the problem will be

How to Maintain Soil Fertility
Without Potash

Farmers are finding it practically i'm
possible to secure potash, or any mix
ed fertilizer in which potash is found
in any reasonable quantities, because
of the war in Germany. One of the
cheapest and best substitutes is made
right here in Vermont; we refer to the
Raw Ground Bone put Up by c. S.
Page of Hyde Park. This material is
guaranteed to be absolutely free from
adulteration and when used alone or in
combination with chemicals like Nitrate
of Soda and Acid Phosphate, it has
record of giving splendid results.
Send postal to Mr.. Page with the
request therefor and he will send you
free, a formula for q mixture which
has been approved by the director of
the Vermont experiment station, as be
ing "A very desirable general purpose
lie will also give You the
