Increase the Value of Your Suburban Property 
I F you had satisfactory facilities for Lighting and Cooking in your country 
house, the value of your property would be very materially increased. 
The lack of such facilities has always been an important and difficult 
problem to the owner or builder of a country home. 
To-day the country dweller, whether summer resident or permanently located, 
can increase the value of his property and at the same time enjoy all the illu¬ 
minating and cooking comforts and advantages of the city resident by installing 
The Liquified Gas for 
Lighting and Cooking 
Blau-Gas is bringing the comforts and conveniences of gas to residents of Long Island who are located 
outside of the area piped for city gas. It has been installed and is now in use in all parts of the Island. 
HOUSEKEEPERS have found how much it lightened the day’s work. No cleaning and filling of lamps. 
No back-breaking coal-scuttles to handle. No hot hours over coal stoves. No ashes to clean out. 
PROPERTY OWNERS find it enhances the value of their houses and makes it easier to sell outlying real 
estate. 
The only way to appreciate the advantages of Blau-Gas is to see it in actual operation. Ladies are particu¬ 
larly urged to see Blau-Gas used for cooking and water heating. Write us for name of some user in your
