That's one plain way of foiling cxcum wear, and keep-
ing up mileage with your engine oil-PLAtkd.
And modern synthetics in Conoco N'A motor oil
make it yield mileage that outscored all other brands
tested in the sensational Death Valley Certified Com-
petition. Five big-name quality brands got every fair
chance against Conoco N*A oil. All were run till engines
failed and none came closer than 58% of the mileage
totaled by Conoco N*A!... the oil you can have for
your needed Spring oil change that’s now overdue ...
the oil whose best known man-made extra substance—
at no extra premium—gives your engine oil-plating.
... another synthetic ... invented to inhibit or restrain
the dangerous "jelling” of oil under excess strain. Engine
heat and pressure can even gum up oil into something
like fly-paper coating—only dirtier, and not much better
for mileage. Against this threat, Thialkene inhibitor was
created for Conoco N*A (U. S. Pat. 2,218,132). And
Conoco Nfh out-mileaged the others in the Death Valley
Test —from 74% all the way up to 161%. You can get
real optimistic about your own mileage. Conoco N'A

--------I the solution is to pack the lard
A tigh in small containers so full
/■ 'i so they will be air-tight when seal-

P 'srs are even better, the special-

|l Since lard containers do not have
to be processed in pressure cook-
ers, it is possible to reflange tin
-ontainers for this purpose. In fact
tt is safer to put lard in used tin
than fruits, vegetables, meats and
other products which must be pro-
cessed to keep well, Miss Neely
says.
Families who have on hand large
quantities of oil or beer cans may
use these as lard containers if
they are of a size which can be
-ealed with their home-owned
equipment. Their salvage can be
valuable to the family, since oil
or beer cans cannot be used for
preserving foods which must be
processed.
