To illustrate the fallacy of the gravity argument: It is only necessary to remember that the gravity of gasoline can be controlled if the quality is not considered. You know, of course, that gasoline is not an elementary compound like watér. It is composed of innumerable compounds. But, you may be surpfised to know that every component part of gasoline has a different gravity, and every com- ponent part of gascline has a close relation to its efficiency. © Itis the proper and ‘scientific grouping, or adjustment, of these parts that makes good gasoline. I Gravity is merely the comparison of the weight of a liquid with water. What the component parts weigh in relation to water means nothing, but the heat or energy which these component parts give off mean a lot.
