Browning's list of used cars this vear is a little bigger than that of last.

Manager Swigert offers a letter signed by E. S. Heath, which will prove of great interest in-terest to all who are really interested in reducing the cost of operating their cars and at the same time increasing their efficiency. Mr. Heath's letter reads as follows: Have been using Save-U-Gas in my Studebaker six for nearly a year; in fact, w-as. I believe, the first to give it a trial, and think it is fine. While I never gave it a real mileage test, have made one trip of ninety-eight miles on six gallons of treated gasoline, which is nearly twice the mileage I used to get on straight gas. Since 1 have had my carburetor properly adjusted. 1 am satisfied I am saving one-third of gasoline on my car. After running my car for over eight months, I decided the valves should be ground, and took it to a first-class man to have the work done, and after going over it he said they were in first-class condition con-dition and needed no grinding whatever. In fact, I can find no fault with Save-U-Gas, aud the additional power it gives to a car is something some-thing wonderful. |
