*X2rOU may prefer Burley tobacco with a touch of Turk-
JL ish or a mixture which includes Perique. Whatever the
preference, every good smoke is blended, expertly.
Of the various types of gasoline no one is a perfect
motor fuel. So CONOCO refiners have developed their
balanced blend, using: Natural Gasoline, fox quick, start-
ing; Straight-run Gasoline, for (tower and mileage;
Cracked Gasoline, for its anti-knock, properties.
• As* expertly as, the tobacco leav.es^are mellpwed and
combined these three elements are produced* and blended
to make CONOCO Balanced*Blend.Gasoline. You will
