Advocate Notes Advantages Over New Yorks Com

at 5000 hours Of the $3.50 hours in the
year would be S,S00,O00,00O kilowatt
hours. If used 1000 hours in the year
this would mean 7,70O, 100000 kilowatt
hours. When the ship canal and power
house arc completed, at cost of
Szo2, 200. you will have a by-prod-
uct' allowing 10 per cent loss in trans
MISSION, OF approximately 100000, 900
K'lowatt hours. With the two govern
mcnts lending their help to raise the
money for this work, the interest on
the sum mentioned above, al per
cent, will be $1O,0s0,OO0 year.
The marketing of this power would
be undertaken by private capital, and
you can realize whether or not there
IS any ground for the expectancy of a
ready market for this power, when the
cost of power production in the City
OF New York and vicinity is in excess
OF one cent kilowatt hour. If this
power can be produced from hydro
electric source instead Of coal, let us
see what the saving in coal would be.
Assuming that it takes two pounds of
coal kilowatt hour, it would call for
$4,000 100000 pounds of coal, or 7,00O,-
600 tons, which, at Sc q ton. would
means an expenditure of $42,000,O00 a
year, and would take to transport same
100000 cars carrying fifty tons each,
or $500 trains of fifty cars Of fifty
tons each.
From these figures you will get some
idea of what the St. Lawrence PROPOSE
tion is, with only about one third of
power developed. ss compared with the
New York State Canal
Another thing must be borne in mind
you cannot benefit such great area
