Cheap Power Attractive to Industries.

Undeniable evidence of the eficien-~

presented by the Hughes Electric Co.
Of Bismarck, which uses Wilton Goa,
mined in 'Burleigh county, exclusively
in generating the power which SUD-
plies fuel for more than 200 Bismarck
ranges at lower. rates than are offered
by any other steam plant in America.
With this same Wilton Ignite, the
Hughes company generates the steam
which heats the entire business sec.
ton Of Bismarck at a cheaper rate
than is afforded by any other central
heating plant in the United States.
Production Per Hour.
The Hughes plant produces 1880
kilowats per hour, and it furnishes
the current for sixty-ive nitrogen
lamps used in lighting Bismarck
streets, and for the mile of five.clus-
ter boulevard lamps which illumin-
ate Bismarck's White Way, in addi-
ton to doing the commercial and
domestic lighting and cooking Of the
capital city. 1t is entirely due to the
very low cost at which the company
has been able to transform Ignite coal
into electric energy taat Bismarck is
doing it electrically to a greater
extent than any other city in Ameri.
ca, Of its population, and, perhaps, in
the world.
