THE SEAFOFTH NEWS PAGE SEVEN. FACTS ABOUT HYDRO—No. 4 of a series of official announcements by the Ontario Municipal ' Electric AssociatIon, representing the Municipalities who own the Hydro -Electric System of Ontario. ow y annomma IMIRKIZSMI2313STIEI tillffEniMMODEEMagni ural Ont rio E LECTRICAL service in the rural municipalities of Ontario, as provided under the administration of the Hydro -Electric Power Commission, is unsurpassed for any comparable area and circumstances. . About 365 Township municipalities have contracted with the Commission to supply power from the extensive transmission networks serving the urban municipalities. Rural power districts generally include parts of several townships to give the most econ- omical distribution costs. They are operated by the Commission as agent for the Townships. Rural consumers receive special advantages not conferred upon urban consumers. The Provincial Government helps in three ways: it pays half the capital costs of rural distri- bution lines and equipment; it makes loans for the purchase of wiring and equipment; and, by its guarantee, it has enabled the Commission to establish reduced maximum service charges. Rural hamlet service corresponds to urban domestic service. Farm Hydro service includes both lighting and Tower and thus is a combination of urban domestic service and power service. Here are some uses for Hydro service on farms: In the House On, the Farm CREAM SEPARATING CMURNING FEED CHOPPING B -00T PULPING LIGHTING COOKING WASHING REPRIGEKATION IRON/NG VACUUM CLEANING LIGHTING BARNS PUMPING WATER MILKING COOLING MILK SAWING WORKSHOP SILO FILLING MOT BEDS On account of the fact that electric service in the rural home is now so widely used that it can be considered a necessity, a five-year contract with the consumer is available in those districts where the townships concerned so approve. The service charge incorporated in rural rates is designed to meet the capital and operating costs of rural distribution lines and equipment required to deliver the power to the rural consumer. To reach each rural consumer there is required twenty to fifty times greater length of distribution line titan to serve each urban consumer, with a corresponding increase in expense. Neyertheless; Government aid and econ- omical operation make it possible to supply farm service in Ontario, combining household use and three horsepower of agricultural power, at even less monthly cost to the farmer than the low charges in many Ontario towns for a comparable domestic service plus a three -horsepower power service. Co-operation pays. In districts where, farmers make full use of service, rates go down. More than 40 per YEAS 1923 1928 1933 cent. of rural consumers pay less than the government - guaranteed maximum service charges. Energy charges are also low. More than 65 per cent. of all rural consumers pay a first consumption charge per kilowatt-hour a 3.6 cents net or less, and this rate applies only on from 30 to 42 kilowatt-hours (hamlet and ordinary farm services). For addi- tional energy consumed, the rate to any rural con- sumer does not exceed 1.8 cents net per kilowatt- hour, and thousands obtain it for 1.35 cents net per kilowatt-hour. A low follow-on energy rate of 0,67 cents net per kilowatt-hour has recently been approved for rural users making liberal use of the service. This is a lower follow-on rate than is available in almost any city, town or village for domestic service.

No other material agency can contribute so much to the maintenance of a standard of living which makes life in rural districts more attractive. A service that has doubled its business under the difficult conditions prevailing since 1928 has proved its worth.
