Gasoline to Help grower Food Prices “Of all gasoline manufactured in the United * States, 67.6% is used by automotive vehicles." (OU News, 7-5-1920, P. 42.) “Of all, the motor vehicles in use in the Middle | West, 65% of the total registration are farnierowned” (Arthur Capper Address, 1920). Gasoline is taking the place-of vanishing man-power 2 oh the firms; and not only does it reduce the > ) - man-hours required to produce a given amount • of food, but it also reduces the actual cost of* . < production, and this despite the advancing" price J of gasoline. (H. W. Quaintance “Influence of « Farm Machinery on Production” Power Wagon Reference Book, 1920, page 56L) Authorities agree that gasoline is a most important fictor in the production and distribution of ’ food products. • ; When gasoline is employed universally to increase the efficiency of man-power on the form, - we may look for vastly increased production , ; . and a consequent decrease in the cost of pro- ’ ducingfood.
