A few years ago oil began to be used extensively in place of coal, and now comes—manufactured gas. Granted that coal heating and oil heating cost about the same, and gas heating at present nearly twice as much as either coal or oil, why do Putnam & Company nevertheless believe in the sound investment basis of the gas industry? Because when gasis made in connection with the production of coke from coal, modern science obtains from a ound of coal more usable heat units in the form of coke and gas than can be obtained from a pound of coal burned under old-fashioned, wasteful methods. In other words, gas is entering a period of sclen tific development similar to that which has built up the electrical industry, the securities of which we have handled for twenty years. We believe gas has a bright future based on a growing de- mand for more economical heating. PUTNAM & CO. Members New York and Hartford Stock Exchanges 6 Central Row, Hartford, Conn.
