Can You Afford Any but a Titan
Kerosene Engine?
At present average prices for kerosene and gasoline,
Titan kerosene engines save their owners about 1.1c.
per horse power per hour over gasoline engines.
Figure in this way. On an 8-horse engine the saving
is 8.8c. an hour, 88c. in a 10-hour day, $98 in 100 days
of work. Say that is all your engine does in a year.
It would cost you $88 more than you need;to pay, to
run an 8-horse gasoline engine one year. That is more
than a third or the price of the engine. Can you afford
to throw .way: $88 a, year? Can you afford even to
think of buying a gasoline engine, when you can get
Titan that runs on kerosene? Come in and let's talk this
over. We have some interesting figures to show you
