PLANT A MONEYMAKER
Why Municipal Ownership Is a Success
at MARQUETTE = -

MARQUETTE, MICH.-Despite rates at least
as low as prevail in any city of the state, Mar
quette's municipal lighting plant has this year
expended $4,000 for permanent betterments, in
Guiding the installation Of larger generator
and the construction Of a pole line, paying
for them out of it's treasury. In addition,
$4,000 worth of bonds have been taken up.
The secret of the of the plant is the
fact that the machinery is operated by water
power and that the management is in the hands
of board which is kept out of politics and
whose five members serve without pay. The rate
for residences is cents per kilowatt hour, and
for business houses 5 cents. More than 900
residences and about 300 business places are
served by the plant, and power is furnished to
some thirty motors. Z

< Calgary, n. w. T., Canada, Dec. e-The an
nual report of the Calgary Board of Trade for
19o3-19O4 is replete with information respecting
the growth of this city, as we'll as Central AL
berta. -
The assessment of Calgary has grown from
81 ,S76 600 in 1896 to $2,77S,0O0 in 1903 and the
total annual expenditure from 1914, 900 to $7O,OOO
The internal collection has increased over
20 per cent since last year, and the customs
collection, as far as the present district is con-
cerned, by nearly 40 per cent in the same period.
The popula ton of Calgary is 10000, and DUR
ing 1908 half million dollars was expended on
buildings. It is estimated that the volume OF
building the present year exceeds million dol
lars. The annual payroll of the Canadian Pacific
railway alone at this point is nearly million
dollars. .,
This item alone would be almost sufficient to
keep a good-sized town going, but the material
growth Of Calgary is due to quite another devel-
opment. Eastern wholesale houses have at last
appreciated the unequaled position of that city
as distributing point. and as the marvellous
expansion of the westerly portion of the terrific
ries is daily emphasizing the necessity of cas-
tern Canada wholesalers providing for the more
expeditions filling of the wants of their retail
customers in the west, Calgary's situation nat
urally claimed their attention the most con-
venient point at which to establish warehouses
AS result a perfect procession of wholesale
firms has invaded the city and built commodious
business blocks. The progress Calgary has made
J the last three four years may be almost
wholly accounted for by this Development *

Agriculture and Irrigation.

Calgary does not, however, rest Its claim upon
this foundation only. The Board of Trade report
devotes forty pages to the agricultural
resources Of the magnificent district of central
Alberta which surrounds the city. The climate
and wonderful effects Of the warm chinook winds
which blow during the winter season fully
dealt with. 1t is set forth that the average
yield an acre Of grain for the whole of the
territories for six years has been: Wheat, 1912
bushels oats "a 49, and barley 2S.O4. For central
Alberta only during the same period the yields
were as follows: Wheat 21. so bushels, oats
3S. SO and barley 2S.O4, thus showing substan-
tial increase and placing central Alberta con-
siderably above the average as grain pro-
Queer. ..-.
Irriga ton comes in for much attention. The
great Bow river canal project undertaken by the
Canadian Pacific Railway company, heads at
| Calgary and is designed to supply water thru
out the district east of the city, The company
has now entered upon the construction of this
canal, which Will ultimately cover one and one
half million acres of land and cost between
four and five million dollars. Construction opera
| tons are for the present confined to the first
division of the scheme, and some Idea of the
magnitude of the undertaking may be formed
when 1T Is considered that this division alone
/ involves taking out twenty miles of main canal,
115 miles Of lateral bitches and 900 miles of dis
tributaries. The area to be irrigated by the first
division covers 100000 acres and has. attached to
| It an additional grazing of 900 900 acres.
| 1t is expected that the main canal Of the first
section will be- completed by next fall, and the
i secondaries by 1906, when the company, expects
to be in position to supply water. The total
cost Of this division is estimated at 81 5000 !
