I NCREASING the food supply of the world is the most vital problem which man must solve. The burden of of this solution rests heavily upon the shoulders of the farmers of

America.

The service rendered by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) in producing fuel and lubricants for the economical and efficient operation of farm machinery has made it possible for the farmer to cultivate a greater acreage, pi duce larger crops, and get the to market at least expense. By maintaining its comprehensive system of distnbution, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) makes it possible for the farmer to get his requirements of petroleum prc^ucts easily, regularly and

quickly.

By virtue of this complete service on the part of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana), he may, literally, “make hay while the sun

shines. ”

He can have a complete cycle of activity, operating even by shifts, if necessary. He can plan his operations on a definite schedule to produce a steady, constant supply of farm products for you and your family. Thus is Qhistrated how you benefit by the service rendered by the Standa^ Oil 0>mpany (Indiana) to the farmer. These are heists accruing to tiie world at lane which accentuate the usefulness of the Stai^ard Oil Company (Indiana) as a puNie servant, and empha^ how comfuehdy it disdiaiges its obligation as suc^ Standard OH Company
