This Rural -rate reduction will mean a saving of approx- imately $300,000 a year to Hydro Rural consumers. The New Uniform Rate Structure Will Be: 3-1/2c per kilowatt hour for first block of energy. (formerly 4c.) 1-6/10c. per kilowatt hour for second block of energy. 3/4c per kilowatt hour for all additional energy. No service charge on Farm Service . . . a service charge of 56c gross pv month on Hamlet service. The more Hydro you use the less it costs on the average per kilowatt hour. Increased use therefore brings lower costs. The important revisions in Rural rates, made effective in January 1944, have resulted in a greater use of energy, enabling the Commission to further reduce the cost of electricity to Hydro Rural consumers in Ontario.
