The Standard QU Company (Indiana) and the Farmer THERE is no general class of men who understand so thoroughly, and appreciate so well, the service rendered by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) as do the farmers of the Middle West. Wherever he may live the fanner is as familiar with the dark green tank wagon as lie is with the conveyance which brings the mail carrier. He knows that his requirements of petroleum products will be provided. He depends up<sn the service rendered by th* Standard Oil Company (Indiana), confident that the company will deliver to him whatever products he needs, when he needs them, and at • price which is fair. During the past two or three strenuous yeai% the farmer of America has carried the responsibility fcr feeding the world. Every hour of every day he was busy, and every minute was precious. To multiply the effectiveness of his own and his employes' labor, he installed modern equipment — tractors, trucks, cultivating and harvesting machinery. To run these machines gasoline, kerosene, lubricating oils, and greases were absolutely necessary. To get them the farmer would have been forced to take hours of time going to town were it not for the distributing facilities of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). The Company brought the products h needed to the farm, even to the tractor in the field. It is this kind of service which has brought the farmer and the Company into such close and such friendly relations. It is this kind of service which emphasizes the usefulness of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) as a public servant. Standard Oil Company (Indiana} 910 So. Michigan Ave., Chicago 1 sot
