When the Farmer. Has to Flow THERE a time on every farm when work must be Gone at once if it is to be done at all. It may be plowing, cultivating, harvesting, or housing of the crops. When conditions are right the work must be started and pushed with all possible speed if the farm is to pay a maximum return that season. Under such conditions the man on the job has no time to go to town, even to get necessary supplies, and no one on the place,.can be spared for that purpose. Some times it is necessary to send in for food, seed, or machinery, but for his requirements of petroleum products, the farmer knows that he will be supplied by the dark, green tank wagon of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) which calls at his home as regularly, though not as often, as does the man who brings his mail. He has learned that he can depend upon this delivery service, and that the Standard Oil man will deliver his kerosene, gasoline and lubricating oil not only to his door, but. if needs be, to the tractor in the field — there are 150,000 tractors in the Middle West. This is the reason for the harmonious, close, friendly relations which always has • existed between the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) and the farmers ot the Middle West. Also this is another reason why the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) takes pride in its position as a public servant, doing an exacting job as well as * it knows how, to the distinct advantage of the man who raises the crops, and the millions who eat them.

Make This Test For Acid-Stomach

There are millions of people who suffer almost daily from the horrors of an acid-stomach —indigestion; sour, gassy, stomach* distressing heartburn; sickening food-repeating; painful bloat and that miserable, puffed up, lumpy feeling after eating. Many of these people have tried treatment after treatment; medicine aftermedicine; others have gone to doctors and stomach specialists and some to hospitals but in spite of all of their efforts they have obtained no lasting relief or a permanent cure. These symptoms simply mean acidstomach. If aUowed to run on, they are very likely to'cause a lot of serious trouble. Dyspepsia, rheumatism, gout lumbago, sciatica, splitting headache, dizzy spells, nervousness, sleepl&sness, mental depression, melancholia, a feeling of listlessness and all-goneness—these are just a few of the disorders which can be traced to acid-stomach. As a matter of fact, acid-stomach is often the direct cause of those almost incurable conditions known as catarrh of the stomach, intestinal ulcer, and cancer of the stomach. The lives of those who suffer from these serious troubles are nothing short of daily agony. Surely then, you must see how important it is to go at once to the seat of the trouble —acid-stomach.
