Are You Wasting The Price
Of a Titan Engine?
HpITAN engines run. on kerosene.
; A Average cost of gasoline so far this year,.
i zS.g cents per gallon.
Average cost of kerosene 7. 7 cents per gallon.
Gasoline costs over 100 per cent more than kero-
sene. Gasoline is going up steadily. Kerosene is not.
r At present fuel prices Titan engines, using kero
sene, save their owners about 1. 1 cents per horse power
per hour.
Arc you running a gasoline engine ? What horse power is
; it? Figure what you'd behaving if you had a Titan kerosene
engine. Rather surprisincr, isn't it? How long would it take
that saving: to pa' for a Titan engine of the same size ?

From Tuesday's Dally.
The" Burlington shop employes have
received some very pleasant news in
the fact that the wages of all those
working by the hour will be raised
from one cent to two and a half cents
per hour, dating from.31ay 1. This
notice has been sent from headquar
ters and will mean quite a difference
in shop time to the different classes of
laborers employed in the shops, but
does not apply to the price of the
