^T0 matter where you are, a little ker-
osene makes it possible to have a
cooking service equal to city gas in
every respect. The Red Star will cook
anything that can be cooked on any
stove and will do it in the same time
as called for by the best reicpes. Red
Star burners are quite different from
those in ordinary oil stoves. There
are no wicks or wick substitutes. The
patented burner is made from solid
grey iron castings and automatically
makes gas from either kerosene or
gasoline. All heat is directly under
cooking utensils, so that none is lost.
Burner parts become red hot, adding
their even metal heat. Give 19 hours
of splendid cooking service from each
gallon of fuel—a saving of 25% of
fuel cost. These stoves are sturdily
constructed and will give a lifetime of
cooking service.
Special Harvest Offer
TO the many housewives of this
community who have long wanted
a Red Star oil stove but have hes-
itated because of being able to -get

we will allow you $5.00 for it to ap-

and see the new model Red Stars to-
