Test It out on your own place for firteen days. Give it the hardest engine test 



you can think of. Compare it with any other engine. II the Columbia doesn't 



develop more power at less cost, send it back quick. No conditions. We are 



willing to let you be the judge and jury. Kerosene (common lamp oil) Is by 



iar the cheapest fuel today. The price of gasoline is chmbing all the time, 



while kerosene remains the same, and in the right engine, it lasts longer and 



produces more power pergallon than gasoline. Youget ALL the powerwhen 



you use a Columbia, because it is the right engine. It is the one really simple 



and perfect kerosene engine. It never bucks when you need it most. It is 



always on the job. ^ ^ ^ . , ^,,
