To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We draw our car and engine oil from the tank cars into large vats under the oil-house, and pump it from thence by stationary engines into tanks above, from which barrels and cans are filled for shipment to shops, store-houses, stations and elsewhere as needed. We manufacture our signal oil from lard oil and kerosene or mineral seal oil. I do not know that it is cheaper, but we are more fully assured of the quality when we make it ourselves. We have recently adopted the practice of manufacturing... our own valve or cylinder oil; whether it is more economical to manufacture than to purchase I do not yet feel certain, but we are better assured of its quality; it is manufactured from tallow oil or lard oil with an equal amount of oil called cylinder stock. The latter is the last product of the retort in refining crude petroleum. Tallow oil and lard oil are the liquid product of crude tallow and leaf lard respectively, pressed at a cold temperature; valve oil is made by placing the two in a tank and thoroughly mixing and heating them to a certain degree of temperature by means of steam coils placed inside of the tank.
