OF Interest to
the Public

December, January and February
are the months for big lighting bills
Anticipating that Coming Events
Cast Their Shadows Before" we pub
llshed a series of educational adver.
tsements during October and Novem-
Der on the economies OF the Tung-
stem Lamp. commonly called bulbs
and globes.
We told you to use Tungsten In
the room where you use the most
light-it would not be economy to
place them where you now use four
and eight candle lamps The small.
est Tungstens are twenty-five
candle power and use forty watts of
electricity every hour while burning
An eight-candle Edison lamp uses
forty watts per hour. therefore in this
case you would not economize In cur.
rent. but you would get twenty-five
candles instead of eight candles for
the same amount of current con-
sumed.
The slxteen-candle Edison lamp
consumes sixty-five watts of electric
ity each hour while burning.
The twenty-five-candle Tungsten
consumes forty watts per hour, In
this the Tungsten saves You 3S per
cent In the current used and Sc per
cent more light received,
In the store II you change TO the
new lamp and do not increase the
illumination, you will save 3s to 10
per cent Of the current formerly used.
The demand for increased illumina-
ticn Will no doubt encourage you to
displace thlrty-candle Edison lamps
and In their place Install eighty to
100-candlc Tungstcns. This VIII In,
crease the illumination $50 per cent
and your bills from IL to 90 per cent
