DEMOCRAT?EN MEW PLAN FOR FIN) ELECTRIC L Eastern Power Company Wor Methods, Rased on Nun Miie ? Success! Rales for electric service on the t krni thai Rive promise of proving sat- ; sflaciory to both farmer and power jompany have beeD established by the ; Adirondack I\>w?r and l.'-ghr. fJorporaion of Schenectady. N. Y These area, which are not any indication of rhat may or may not be possible In ther sections of the country, seesn leverthelesa to be a real contribution owani the aolutlon of this pressing [nestion. In the cose of the Adirondack com >any. the density of population, the :har*cter of the country, ihs kind of \ arms served and the cost of in ate iala and of lice construction hare >een such that these rates could ap- j )ly. Such considerations enter Into >very effort to take electric line* to arms. The farmer's problem Is to set elec Tic service at a cost low enough to :nake it profitable for hlni to u?? !t. The utility company's problem Is to ripply the service at a price that will iffortJ a fair return on the capital toi ested. No Dlaapocintmenta So Far The Adirondack plan is tbe culmtnaion of two years' intensive study, and. veocrding to officials of the company. *o ease has yet been bronchi t.o their attention which cannot ba taken care erf under the provisions of tta formula, fn fact, the company now stands ready io extend service anywhere within Its franchise area. The reply, "We will j ?xt??nd s' rvice If so many signatures ?r? nercurod." etc . so common with utility companies to inquiries for ser . rice. Is now chaog<Ml by the AdironSack Company to. "We will gladly a.s tend service for you. and the term* iriU be so and so. In accordance with anr tariff regulation*." Th? outstanding feature of the plan. | aa filed with the New York State ptl J lie Service Commission, la a table from i which It is an easy matter to doter ! mine rh?a terms r%T hit mra! extension I This i^rea the minimum monthly bill | and deposit necessary, according te the number of customers her nolle The plan provides for two wtvs of sharing this expense, a flat mlnftHont monthly bill or a lower m'nirfltrA monthly bill plea a easb deposit by the uatomer ITarma operated by tenants where the owner would hesitate to make a .-aeh payment toward the line end edsere the tenant wotsW si so be rwhte l-?al te ma fee a cash deposit to a acute electricity for a farta which be ssifcM r acute lo a year or *o. are cxtv^cied U> furor the minimum Vtil phut, la rune where the owner acrcvipte* U*? farm, the other ylnis *f a deposit and a lower tnfnimcra Vfll will andoebtadly be farored.

Each farmer's case Is treated tnrtb rfdually?that la. one farmer in the alx-to-a-mile extension can agree to a minimum bill of 34. whereas his neighbor can deposit flM and have a minimum bill ef $3. City Hate* fee Farmers Service supplied to customers frsm these rural Usee will be charged tor at the re solar city rates. This la another point in which the Adirondack plan differs from ether*, li being the company's belief tb-t with a low price for enersy the farmer caa economically nse tt in large quantities. Other companies bare felt that they must rhargo a hi/cher rale per kilowatt hoot than obtains in the cftle* or that this; mast hwrf a service charge in ajdl tion to so ranch per kilowatt fconr tot all electricity used. The Ad iron dock Company believes that with rates oi the farm as low as they are in the elty the farmer can economically um considerable ecenry and that thil abundant use of service will make II possible Tor the company to extend Iti ' ilnea to serve farm customers. ] Oos of the creates! obstacles it 1 present day fartr electrification Is tha when an extension Is desired not al .the resfd-nts along the proposed !ln< j will agree to share the expense. Then j after a few have assumed the expena and the line is installed, the other will ask for service and there is n< wsy to compel them to assnme a pre portional share of the installation cost Under this new pian. say. fonr farm era to the mile may desire elect rl sendee They each agree to a rota mam monthly bill of !< or pert.sp each deposit* JiM 1> cash and acre ERY THURSDAY?BOONE.
