throughout the length and breadth of rural ontario there is a demand for hydro but seldom is new district taken into the system without a desperate struggle to get three subscribers to uie mile in some cases sparslty of rural popu lation makes uie regulation a dif ficult one to meet and uie situation is aggravated by uie reluctance of many to mortgage their farms they express it to the ontario hy dro electric power commission tlve contract binding for a period of 30 years is msgnlned by some into a mountain of injustice and oppression it has been likened lo a mortgage hanging over the farms an encumbrance that would lessen uie value of the property and per haps prevent m sale after a rural system is once in- rlslled the property owners who re fuse to subscribe eventually come in and uie mortgage or encum brance idea evaporates into thin air it is realised that instead of an en cumbrance uie contract and installa tion constitute an asset that in creases uie value or the farm and will promote rauier than hinder sale when hydro wos installed at weldwood the parmers advo cate farm during february 1033 uie service charge was tea per year two years later a rebate of iso was received and the service charge was gradually revised downward until now it is only t38 per year what happened additional subscribers and extensions hsve helped to light en uie burden far the established users of power but under uve equit able system of cooperative owner ship and service at cost uie ute comers do not derive any advantage from their delay those who come on uie line after a system- is installed and has been in operation for any period of time whatever pay their share of uie original cost and main tenance to date if a property owner does not wish to use hydro and feels that he just cannot afford the cost of installa tion ranging from i1m to tsoo it is certainly his right to refrain now adays however when farmers ev- erywhere an clamoring for this power uie argument against the so- called mortgage or incumbrance is without weight and substance hy dro is installed and operated on community basis individualism is no part of the system in fact individ ualism retards uie progress of hydro and inrreasea uve difficulties en countered in every district individ ualism is th great retarding force in agriculture today pvhlic rciiool board the public bclvool board met on dec
