utomatic
produces 110-voli current
The Kohler Automatic Power and Light Plant produces
standard i 10-volt electricity, and therefore allov * you to
use the same standard electric light bulbs and appliances
used in cities. These appliances are available everywhere
and cost less than those of lower voltage.
Coupled with this advantage of the Kohler Automatic is
the feature of “no storage batteries.” This does away with
the trouble and expense of maintaining a large bank of
glass-cell storage batteries. The only battery used with
the Kohler Automatic is a small, automobile-type, for
starting the engine.
Thus the Kohler Automatic gives you all the advantages
of city electricity with the same convenience—simply
turn any button on the circuit and you have electricity
for power or light. Send for illustrated booklet. Come in
and see the plant in operation. ®'

OIL MEN LBl
ST SUPERSTITION
WILDCAT OILING
NEW YORK, April 28, (/P)—A
70-year quest by the American
petroleum industry to find the
key to determine the location of
oil has laid a ghost or two.
The industry still believes “oil
is where the drill finds it.” but
has been compelled by the weight
of evidence to reject the admoni
tion to “drill near churches and
cemeteries; keep away from saw
mills and swamps.”
It passed into limbo along wiih
the idea that oil wells could be
located by forked sticks.
The reason is that some in
credulous, hard-boiled engineers
with supreme faith in drills and
none in fables have brought in
gushers in all sorts of places in
and around the United States.
Oil men still probe about ceme
teries, but for a different reason.
Customary sites on rising ground
occasionally coincide with the an
ticlines or subterranean hills or
honporous rock that trap oil and
gas, explains the American Petro
leum Institute.
But the rest of the fable is
just that. Oil men are producing
oil from the midst of swamps,
near the sites of sawmills and
many other strange places.
Oil men now pay more atten
tion to the subsurface than sur
face conditions in determining
whether a well shall be drilled.
As a result wells are working
in swamps of Louisiana, salt
domes of the gulf coast, surf of
Huntington Beach, in California,
