GROWTH OF REFINING CAPACITY 99 where the gasoHne storage falls short of the normal ratio. Inthe first instance, the departure from normal points to the markeddegree to which Mid-Continent gasoline is stored in the north-central district; while in the second instance, the relatively lowratio of gasoline storage to refinery intake is due to the low gasolinecontent of Cahfornia crudes, to the fact that the storage was not fullat the time noted, and to the less accentuated seasonal variation ofdemand in that state. The relative storage capacity in the various parts of the countryfor the main petroleum products other than gasoline may be inferredfrom the quantities of such products in storage on October 31, 1920,when stocks were large.
