Hydro For Farmers The Doerr Electric Co. of Kitchener has been doing some hydro missionary work on the 4th concession west and their efforts resulted in the coming of Sbn’s crop 'lost, but_ 10 milch co_ws, 8 a Hydro engineer to Teeswater last week to look over the situation and. give the prospective hydro users an estimate of the cost. , 'fhe Hydro Commission does not ad- vocate the installing of hydro on the concession lines unless there are three users to the mileâ€"for economy sake. The service charge would be too high in proportion to the power used, unless there were three or more to the mile. The Doerr Electric Company had se- cured the wiring contracts and com- municated with the Hydro Commis- sion who sent up an engineer but he was only able to secure four signatures on the line, whereas six is required to make it economical. The Hydro Com- mission installs the poles and wires and the user has to build his own line from the road in and wire his prem- â€" v“â€" ises. What was recommended and what is generally used on the aver- age farm is a service up to 3 h.p. single phase. This would cost on the aver- age, the estimate being taken from other communities, a sum of $34.56 for power and $49.14 for service every 12 months with a 10% discount, or a total of $75.63. This is based on a meter rate of 8c. per kw. for the first 14 kw.'s Hydro is a power utility that has become indispensable in factory and home alike and where once used, is seldom. if eVer, thrown out.

Stanley inght had been arranging negotiations for a new and larger factory in the lower part of the province. Plans in the making were shown us and they ap- rushed to Lord Dufi‘erin Hospital. where for a time it was feared that he would lose the sight or one eye. Doctors in attendance are now hopeful of saving the sight of both eyes, but his face will carry scars of the accident. He will be confined to the hospital for some days yetâ€"Grand Valley Star. pear to represent a thoroughly up-to- date flooring plant. The move has apparently been under admsement for some time and a site has been decided upon and an option taken on the property. Mr. Knight is forming a new company and will retire from the management of the local factory to enter the new business. Asked if the present factory was included in the plans, he stated that it would be eventually. As an explanation he stated that the freight in and out of Meaford was a tremendous handicap as all their (1k shipments came from the Mississippi Valley and it meant a long haul bOth here and return. In referring to the Mearordâ€"Oww Sound railway. we enquired if that would alleviate matters and Mr. Knight said not to any great extent. Our townspeople will deeply regret the loss of any of the town’s indus- tries and we trust that the Knight 00., will even yet be induced to change their minds and remain here. The factory employs about 40 to 45 hands and has a payroll. of approximately 835.000 to $40,000 annually.â€"Meaford Express.
