BEEKSTEAK AND ELECTRICITY

In 1914 the electric industry's av-
erage revenue for each kilowatt-
hour of power was 2.6 cents. In 1879
it was likewise &c cents.
Yet, during the years between, the
wages of skilled labor rose 22O per
cent, unskilled labor about 225 per
cent, and the average price of elec-
trical apparatus, equipment and sup
plies about 215 per cent.
In other words, the average cost
of electric service to the consumer
is no greater than before the war,
in spite of the fact that costs of la
bor, supplies and everything neces-
sary to the generation and distribu-
ton of power have more than doub-
led.
The public does not fully appre-
ciate the return it gets on its mon
ey when it buys electricity, because
it is buying a service instead of a
visible commodity. A light is turned
on and later turned off and the user
has nothing left to show for the
money he has spent. He has had as
definite a return, however, as II ne
had bought a beefsteak and eaten it,
or a dozen eggs and eaten them.
Measured in terms of efficiency
usefulness or comfort we get more
for the electric dollar than almost
any other dollar we spend.
Think of modern home or bus1-
ness without electricity. If one can
visualize that, then the value we get
for our money when we buy power
becomes vividly apparent.

DATRYMEN CAUGHT
AS PRICES Are CUT
[COntinned from First Pagel

L@NNF~~'-NTNN~
cheese station has recently ex-
pressed the intention of purchasing
all high test milk, whether high in
butter milk fat or not, and that which
tests too high, or is too yellow in
color, for white cheese will be sent
to Goldsboro, Md, for use there in
creamery.
The farmers also report that many
of the milk stations due to the plen-
tifulness of milk and the low price
have become somewhat abitrary in
their actions and have rejected milk
frequently because o fthe tests. Fur
ther complication is brought into the
dairy farmers problems, it is said,
by the difference in methods of tests.
Some milk stations test by weight, or
specific gravity, and others by
analysis of butter fat content and
the percentage of other substances.
The expressed intention of the
cheese milk station to send the milk
that they cannot use for making
cheese to Maryland after April 1 for
use, has been received as good news
by the farmers and they are await
ing this development with interest.
They are urging that at the next
session of Legislature State milk
commission be provided for and ap-
pointed to standardize the methods
of testing milk, adjusting prices
among the various stations, assisting
the farmers in developing their herds
and analyzing their problems. Milk
has been the big topic of discussion
among the farmers in middle Della
ware for the past two weeks.
