5urn Socony Kerosene
THERE'S nothing like a good oil heater for warming up chilly places and helping out the regular heating system in extra cold weather.
An efficient oil heater (we recommend the Perfection Smokeless Oil Heater) will give ten hours of clear, odorless heat on a gallon of kerosene. It will not smoke and it will not give off odor, so long as you are careful to fill it with reliable fuel.
The best way to make sure of always getting safe, clean, dependable fuel is to buy it by name. Say • 'Socony " (So-GO-ny) to the grocer's boy when he comes to take your oil can. Socony Kerosene Oil is the name of the Standard Oil Company of New York's best kerosene. It is a quality product—so much better than ordinary kerosene that it is decidedly worth asking for.
If your dealer sells genuine Socony Kerosene he will display the Socony sign in his window. Look for this sign. It is a quality sign and one of the easiest ways to recognize a reliable dealer.
We recommend the following oil burning devices as the best of their kind: New Perfection Oil Cookstoves and Water Heaters, Perfection Smokeless Oil Heaters, Rayo Lamps and Lanterns.
