Mr, Culmev has his headquarters at the tip Culco refineries at Independence, Indepen-dence, Kan., and is a commanding -figure in oil circles. When met at the train Monday many old acquaintances, remarked that Mr. Calmer must have, discovered the elixir of perpetual youth in his researches at the Culco chemical laboratories, as he carries his vears of active business life lightly. i Mr. Culmer reports the financial out- look th rough out the east as ext remely encou racing unusually so in face of a presidential election. Ho refused to be quoted on the prospects of cheaper gasoline, but. left the impression that such a desirable condition of affairs was a possibility of the near future. t 'ul co oils are rapidly forcing the attention of the eastern and middle west em consumers, and in the heart of tho oil refining districts in compel com-pel it ion wit h all other oils the Culco products show an increased business over last year of .r00 per cent. The Citlco Chemical company is now equipped with the Culmer decarbonizer, which takes the free and fixed carbons out of so-called "carbonless" oils, and all Culco oils shipped to this territory are so treated. The Culmers policy of pushing quality quali-ty products only is so universally accepted ac-cepted as a fact that even the Culco gasoline commanded a premium because of its purity, in Kansas, and when price cutting was resorted to by some concerns the Culmers company held its trade on quality alone. Mr. Culmer left for Chicago Thursday, Thurs-day, but will probably return to Salt Lake in the early spring and promises a surprise for tho western oil consumers, con-sumers, but stated he could not go into details as yet. |
