Geolo state that oil dis- is a possibility in 1,100.000.000 acres in the United States alone, or 56 per cent of its total land area. The contrast of this huge territory with the 2,000,000 acres producing oil ‘at present makes certain that new fields will be continually discovered “What is true regarding the tial oil production of the United St 2500 Years' Supply of Gasoline For 30,000,000 Autos Is Forecast| probably is true even in great measure for many other countries of the world where oil exploration has been less thor- ough. Crude oil will be the dominant source of gasoline for at least a cen- tury to come.” Dr. Egloff showed how gasoline could be obtained by the cracking process . | from fich, vegetable and peat oils, wood, tars and asphalt. : BARN DANCE IN PROGRAM.

In this test a New Frigidaire is placed in a room with a temperature of 100°. Here its operation is carefully watched for days. The speed with which it freezes ice is checked. Its current consumption is noted. And this is what the “hot room” tests prove: That despiteitsincredibly quiet operation, the New Frigidaire has even greater surplus ice-freezing power and even greater operating economy. In fact the hotter the room The shelves of the New Frigid- aire provide room for tall receptacles ‘The New Frigid- aire is extreme- ly simple.

Put the compressor in the base~ ment if you care to, and use the lower part of the cabinet for dry storage. ‘When the New Frigidaire comes into your home there’s no more ice to buy. No more food waste due to spoilage. And since the New Frigidaire keeps foods fresh and wholesome 4 to 5 times longer, you can safely buy in larger quantities. These combined savings are greater than the cost of Frigidaire and the cost of operation. The New Frigidaire is now on exhi- bition at our display room. Come in and see it, and find out about the low prices and easy terms. Low prices and easy terms If you buy the New Frigidaire on a deferred payment plan . . . as most people do . . . the first payment need be no greater than the cost of a few ice books.
