NOTICE TO TELEPHONE SUB.
:. ~" SCRJBERS.

. In view of the fact that the expense
OF operating the local telephone ex-
change has increased greatly with the
extra cost Of labor, cable work and
material during the last several years,
and. that with the increased number
of subscribers the corresponding per-
centage of profit has been decreased
on the above account. The Improve
ment company will on the first day of
January, 1910, put into effect the fol-
lowing telephone rates: s
Single, party business lines, $2.75;
two party business lines, $3.50; single
party residence lines, $1.75; two par
ty. or more residence lines, $l.50.
Free farm connections to remain as at
present. This is raise of only TWEEN
ty-five cents per telephone for private
lines, against Minot's raise of s1.00
per telephone the first of the year.
i Subscribers to local exchange paid
$3.50 for business telephones and $3.50
for residence telephones when there
were less than two hundred tele-
! phones in the city, and these without
4 any long distance, or free farm con:
nections, and with midnight service.
| Since then the exchange has almost
! trebled in size, long distance and farm
connections obtained, in all giving reg
4 ular Subscribers much more for their
money without corresponding compen
sation to the exchange.
It is a situation well known In the
4 telephone field that to provide for ar
i exchange of six hundred subscribers
Icosts great deal more than six times
