Old Adams County Bank 11924 | vs. 1913 IN THE advertising columns of this paper, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has I stated repeatedly that the price of gasoline is low, and particularly so by comparison with J the price of other products. ■j I To confirm the truth of these statements, your Il critical attention is directed to the table below J| compiled from statistics of the United States I Bureau of Labor and Department of ComI rnerce, showing the price level of various || commodities in January, 1921. as compared with that of 1913—taking the latter year as 1U0: il Gasoline .... 97.0 s| Mour . .... 1352 JI Potatoes .... 1402 || Farm Products. . . 144.0 1 Milk 155.5 I Butter 158*7 | House Furnishing Goods 176.0 j| Building Mattrial . . 161.0 || Sugar 19b.3 1 1 Cloth and Clothing. . 21*0.0 I Average for all commodities 151 j The average man has come to accept the fluctuation in the prices of milk, butter, sugar, potatoes, and like products, as natural. This acceptance is so well-established and timehonored as to be a orosaic incident. The buying of gasoline is relatively a new experience. The economical production of gasoline requires large investments which are possible only with big institutions of vast capitalization. Because of this, the petroleum industry Jias come in for criticism that does not fall to the lot of other industr; -s. The above bullet in proves con Jusivcly that the price of gasoline is low and that the dollar in 1924 will buy more gasoline than it could ml 13. This demons*, i ales the efficiency of *7* leum industry, in which the Standard Oil Com* | pany(lndiana) is proud of its position ar a leader.
