On this basis the annual income would amount to $17,003.64. The December .income was practically the ' same, being a few dollar more. At this rate the income from the power plant lacks only about $1,000 paying inter est on bonds. This, of course, does ' not consider operating expenses .which amount to apporximately $5000 per year. The income from water rents will pay operating expenses of the plant Twenty electirc ranges in stalled in Franklin, in addition to the current already in use, together with ' the income from water rents, will pay operating expenses and the interest on the bonds. So Franklin is not nearly in such bad shape as some of the growlers would have the public be lieve. Notice of Sale By virtue of a power of sale con tained in a Deed of Trust, from C. .
