"The province of Ontario has no known coal supply." Sir Adam pointed out, ""W; are dependent upon the East and the West for Canadian coal. and that virtually means that we are dependent entirely upon the United Stutes for our supply. Electricity developed by water power is cheaper than coal, cheaper than coal was previous to the increased cost of coal. Hydro-electrie pow- er adequately supercedes coal and costs very little, I expect to see its use in O tario, province-wide, all-reaching, general Commission Acts as Trustees The Hydro-Electrie Power Commission of Ontario is the largest corporation in the world transmitting and distributing electric. al energy.

Hydro-Radials and the Farmer That the development of hydro-electric lin the interests of the farmers was emphas. ised by Sir Adam Beck. "Hydro-electrie radials,"' he said, "mean quicker and more ) frequent transportation and low rates. | They mean reduced freight, packuge. ex. ! press and passenger rates. In addition, | jthey furnish a local and frequent service : that trunk lines, steam and electric, do not provide." The constructions of radials is limited to districts where hydro-electric power in av- ailable, "*but," 'according to Sir Adam, "when worked together, that is, the joint distribution of electric power with the op eration of a railway reduces the price of | from $5 to $15 per horsepower to| The radials themselves will not | supply power to the farmers, but the gen eral system will be available, in these cases, as in others, for supplying all the power de manded. "The cost of hydro-electric power on 1 farm depends entirely upon the demand, id Sir Adam, The larger demand in any locality the lower the rate. The Commis. sion builds and finances all the main trans- mission systems in a township. The town. ship installs the transformer and metefs and makes the connections to farmers who are not more than 120 feet away from the main line, The farmer pays for his own wiring, motor, and connections. In rome cases, the farmer pays outright for his connec- fion with the township system. If he is) well back on the farm, or s considerable distance off the main line of wire, he, has to pay more, of course, than the tan whose house and barns are immedistely ad- jacent to the line, In the case of a barn that is 600 feet | and a house taht is 300 feet from the pole could be so arranged as to cost, it is es- timated, $46, giving light and power ser- vico. Ten lights in the house, on two switches, would cost for wiring $30; wir- ing for one light for lighting yard $3; ser- vice entrance, $5; 17 lamps $4.25; total $128.75. ; These figures are given to illus- trate approximate cost: Each particular farm is a case in itself. The cost of pow- er is made up of service charges and con- sumption charges, the former according to number of consumers per mile, as, for in- stance, $2 a month when used by five con- sumers per mile, and the latter according to actual amount. of electricity used ax EDMONTON VANCOUVER VICTORIA registered by the meter.
