Universal BATTERY CABLES

GROUND STRAPS and BATTERY

It's quality that counts in the lifelines that keep batteries doing their job. Hard

starting of engines in winter is often due to poor quality cables and straps· Corrosion drains away the power like water dripping from corroded pipes·

NASCO cables and straps are first quality, corrosive-resistant.

U S ED TO ST ART TRACTOR

A New South Wales farmer uses a N ASCO Cigarette Lighter to start hos tractor. He is Peter C . Schi lg, of Burrumbuuoc k . Mr. Schilg i n a letter recently described t h i s novel use he had found for a NASCO l i ghter. His tractor requires the l ighting ol a taper to enable a Hart. "Using matches on cold. windy weather for t h is operation sometimes becomes ratheo tryi ng." he explained. So he had a ASCO Cigarette Lighter mounted on the tractor.
