cINclNNATrS CHEAP GAS.
Interested Persons Say That 1t Costs

1t costs nothing to make and sell
gas. The Cincinnati Gas Company
can sell it at seventy five cents n
thousand feet or five cents thousand
feet, and the price it charges will all
be profit. The by products. chief of

of producing the gas.
