The gas used is the vapor from •0 wells that has been refined and condensed into a low-pressure liquid and bottled in the steel drums shown in the inset. The drums are attached by tubing to Hie burners and when the jets are opened, the condensed vapor re- •ssumes its gaseous form and tenia with the characteristics of natural gas. Two drums are at* taehed to each stove, one being' ' held in reserve for use when the first one has been used up. It this way the service Is kept coo* tinuous. While primarily intended for farms and suburban homes, Ojrlesby, Illinois, a town of 5,000 population, has recently begun through the city council a citywide installation of bottled gas,* each subscriber having his own private system. Wm. H. Althoff, West McHenry hardware dealer, is tne local dealer in Protane Gas. Mir. Althoff offers the suggestion that one of these plants would make an ideal Christmas gift.
