NlnIOH, iowa, Mcn. ~, 1917.
My Dear Green:-
Regarding our gas plant would
say that Mr.. Boyle, who is president
of the company, is a fine man and
can be relied upon. / am using the
gas in my house and am we'll pleas
ed with it. 1t is what is known as
the ''carburated water gas" and is
made from water and crude oil. 1t
is not coal gas. By some ii is
claimed to be better, but / am no
judge as to that as | am not a gas
man. Until the present system was
discovered small towns like Vinton
and DEBORAH had to forfeit the
pleasure of using gas. 1t would be
impossible for them to sustain coal
gas plants. AS | understand it the
plant here stands at something like
$50, 000-partly local capital but
mostly capital secured by Mr.. Boyle.
1t does not smoke if the air proper
ties are adjusted properly unless it
is made too rich" That is, too
much body. A gas maker is like
every other skilled worker, he
makes mistakes. Occasionally here
the gas maker has made a mistake
and We have had heavy gas. That
is very seldom.
Giving you my judgment as ex-
pressed from experience in using the
gas | would say if you have an OPP
portunity to secure a plant similar
to this, give the projectors all the
encouragement they want. Mr..
Boyle had no trouble in getting a
franchise here and it was remark
able how popular the product be-
came.
During the past winter / have
heated my kitchen with coal range
and used the gas occasionally. Last
year | used the gas up till the time
it was necessary to start the range
| to keep the kitchen warm. AS soon
as the kitchen is warm enough with
out the stove we will start the gas
stove and use it altogether. In fact,
this past week We have used the gas
stove most of the time.

Waverly, Iowa, Mch. 10, 1910.
Dear Sir
| have your favor of the 18th
relative to the cost and quality of
the gas used here. In reply will
say that | have given this matter
careful attention. You say that you
have heard that this gas is made
from crude oil and not good grade
of coal gas. 1t is not coal gas but
water gas and made from a slightly
refined oil. There is absolutely no
smoke to this gas. Expert advise
has told us that the heat units are
much greater than in coal gas.
For lighting and fuel it gives en-
tire satisfaction and the patrons of
the company inform me that there is
great economy in its use. / have
made inquiry from both large and
small consumers in regard to its use
for fuel and light and they report
favorable. Each day the company
is installing new fixtures throughout
the town for our citizens who have
waited till they were satisfied that
it was economy to use the gas.
Regarding Mr.. Donelan and other
members of the company | wish to
say that they are conscientious,
honorable gentlemen who have the
confidence of our people and l can
recommend them to you.

GAS POPULAR WITH
MANY IN Ell PASO
Fifteen Percent of City's
Population Uses Gas
In Homes.

Fifteen percent of Ell Paso's popula-
tion uses gas for heating, or cooking,
OF lighting This is proved by the 4125
consumers of the product in FL Paso
at the present time, FL Pasos official
population being 1929
This shows an increase Of 161 gas
users since the census was taken five
months ago. and indicates to some de-
gree the rapid growth of the city, for
figuring five members to the family,
as is the usual custom, the total num-
Der of new arrivals in the city from
other points who are members Of fam
lilies using gas is S05
OF course the births have been nu-
merous and there are some families
which do not use gas in any manner,
and therefore no definite information
as to the reaa growth of the city since
the census five months ago can be fig
ured from this, but one thing is sure,
and that is FL Pasoans as a general
rule use more gas for its three pur-
poses than many of the larger cities in
the country.
