(From our Regular Correspondent) HOBSON, Mont., Jan, 4, 1924.—That electric current under the new rates of the Montana Power company is cheaper than coal, was demonstrated this month in Hobson when the first bill for a full month's home service with complete electrical equip ment was rendered and came ta only $9.60. The home is that of H. S. Woodward, cashier of the First National bank, and the electrical equip ment consists of a four-hole electric range, a three quarter horsepower motor operating a pumping system, an electric mangle, a washing machine, electric iron, 21 electric lights totaling 1,100-candle power, an electric toaster, a vacuum cleaner and an electric water heater to heat water in the range boiler. Mr. Woodward formerly used a coal range which burned a ton of coal a month at a cost of $9.75 At that time, under the old delivered in the bin. rates for juice, his monthly bills for electricity from $4,00 to $6.00 per month. Under the new rates, with a range and water heater added, his entire bill is less than the cost of coal for his range. By installing an electric range he has saved enough on his cooking costs to pay for operating all of his electrical equipment. The new rates of the Montana Power company provide for a sliding scale of charges. The first 25 kilowatts cost 8c each, or $2.00 ; the next 25 kilo watts cost 4c each, or $1.00, and the next 100 kilo watts cost 3c each, or $3.00. The balance of the current costs 2c per kilowatt. Thus, after a house holder uses 150 kilowatts at a.total cost of $6.00, the balance of his current costs only 2c per kilowatt. In other words, the more current a man uses the cheaper it is. If he uses 300 kilowatts the average cost is only 3c per kilowatt, or if he uses 360, as Mr. Woodward did, the average price is only 2 2-3c per kilowatt hour. The noteworthy thing about tTie low cost of electricity at the Woodward home is that they have a nine-room house and a large household, eight per sons, with six young children, so that the quantities of juice required for washing, ironing, cooking, lighting and pumping are all much greater than in the average home. ran « lawer Company Tho h Montana^ Wherever Represented t i j j i ^ j c LEGAL PUBLICATIONS Notice of Sale Helena, Montana, August 9, 1924. —Office of the Collector of Internal Revenue.
