Where 200,0E volts eglt, mentioned, it should have read 2,000 volt.. . Now for the next questions No. E; De we get a 24-hour �? "We give " ydro. What do the Hydrro' peoplle'. mean by a 24-hour service? They simply mean that the juice is in the. line a17 the time, night and day, se that if you happen to be . of a ner• 1 vous disposition and cannot sleep. Borne night, yeti can get up, go to the barn, turn on the•glden, throw on the juice and chop grain fill daylight. if you so desire. That is .ala that the Hydro means by a 24 -boar ale'- vices There is one point I would like to mention While dealing with a 24 - .hour service, and- that is, Whet would it costa farmer if he were to' became a small manufacturer and use a 5 H- P. motor at toll capacity for ten hours a day, 800 days s year. Here is the bill presented by Hydro; , Service eharge $ 84,00• 840 K. W. H. at 7c 68.80 10350 K. W. H. at 31,4c......362.25 $606A6 - Less 10 per cent 42.10 4482.96 - Per H, P., 792.59. Question 4: le I install Hydro, would an electric range be a rood- investment?. odinvestment?. It would be a good ire-. vestment if you do not consider ex- pense. I have before me a set of bills. presented by Hydro at London to one , of their city consumers These peo- ple installed a Moffatt range costing , around 7150.00 and the only thing they do not use it for is bread bak- ing. They buy their bread from a bakery. After deducting lighting,. etc., the bills averaged 198 &WTI... and were charged as follows: Service charge per month ; .42- ` 42 K. W. H. at 2c .84 156K.W H.at1c 1.56 Less ten per gent .24 ' 'Perth*mouths .at 72.58 per•wowtth is $30.96. This $30,96 is their yearly bill for the range. HOWcheap, you exclaim. Yes, we reply, it certainly pays to use hydro for cooking in the city, but what a- bout the country? Suppose we add the electric stove equipment and the juice used to M. St. John's bill, and charge against the service charge just that proportion of the yearly charge represented in the K. W. Hours used up by the range. This is how it works out: (proportionate) Ser. charge...1,51-3' " 542 K.W.H. at 7c... 37.94 " 1834 K.W.H. at 3,,¢c.. 63.19 Less 10 per cent 10.11 7142.35 Thus the City of Londonpricefor 12 menthe' service is 730.96, and the country prier for exactly the same amount of service is 5142.35. It looks to us like a case of loaded dice, but our reader can draw his own c•,relusions. Question 5: What kind of a con- tract does Hydro require the Farmer to sign? In asking this question you t >nch that. phase of the subject which to our mind is the most objectionable. Hydro requir the farmer to sign an ironclad cant't. running for twenty Nears. When '.elan gets married he d marries till ". n do u part," but lea with Hydro death has no tnsors, for death does not part the contractor frim the eenta-act, the heirs, assignors ee whoever gains control of the pr,perty must. assume the hydro ob- lieat.ion and carry out the agreement 1.111 the 21 years has rolled on into eternity. If you are not satisfied y,u must. "grin and hear it." If ;•aur heirs are not satisfied they too must do likewise. Now one would r -tnrally think that when Hydro is insistent in binding a Farmer "vend and foot that they would prom- hii a gond thing er et least to•d something return ,erre n sn et g on to af- ter the style of "You do this, well do theta" but, alt no, not Hydro; it's case of heads. we win; tails, you 'use. Th'•y guarantee you nothing. They give von a temporary piice of 7c. and 3'1; per K. W. H•, but they era alter thee. prices at their own +reef will. They can charge you eeriethey like and you have no say at se in th., matter, and what is more yon have to pay those charges even f the pavinrr of them puts you on ",e read. When you sign a contract rcu sign away your Britlsii birth- right of appeal. There is no appeal from Hydro. Whatever they say and vin --_ekes. Don't you think weber- t`iey alk SIO much of us they ought to guarantee to us a maximum price .'tiring the life of the contract? We think so; we would then know joint what we had to do and could lay- mir plans accordingly. As it now is we are at the mercy of tke Hydro Electric Commission the moment we sign a contract. It may be thumbs np, but we know, at least one user who ds beginning to think that h thumbs deem. FRANK Jt+
