toward progressive ideals. In
this connection, however, it is
necessary to bear in mind that
since 1912 lines arc blurred

For example, a very large

the fall of 1921 were found to bo tho

Their pullets In a period of sovon

But it Is not alone in number of
eggs that tho lato-moultor's progeny

As Accurate as
Your Watch
. It has to be! It would mean
a big loss In dollars and cents
and in the good will of our
customers (which is worth a

We don't make our own meters, of course. They're
made by an outside disinterested manufacturing
company who has but one object to turn out a
perfect product.
No meter can register unless gas is passing .'
through it. No meter, correctly adjusted, can;
register more gas than is passing through it.
Every meter is tested befor it goes Into your,

'meter inspectors are employed by city-or stated
Their job is to test meters and .do nothing else.
