Gas Company
Seeks Revenue
Raise in Beaver
Berne Community
Will Also Receive
An Increase

K = --
The Home Utilities company,
with offices in Marietta, have fill
ed their petitions with the Pub
lie Utilities Commission Of Ohio,
asking for an Increased gas
rate in the village of Batesville,
Beaver township, and the unin-
corporated village Of Carlisle
(Berne), both Of which are in
Noble county,
III. NJ. Wells, OF Caldwell. is
vice president of the company
and A. &. Schwletzer, secretary.
The petition includes not only
the communities Of Batesville
and Carlisle, but the outlying
districts as well in Beaver and
Stock township.
At Carlisle and Batesville, the
company is asking for a modifi-
cation and increase of the present
rates which have been in effect
since November l, 1882.
The contemplated increase is
threefold and as follows: a min
imum charge of one. dollar
l$l.00) for the first 500 cubic
feet or less of natural, mixed or
manufactured gas delivered per
month; rate of seventy cents
per 1000 cubic feet for ali over
the first five hundred Cubic feet
consumed in any one month; "A
penalty of five cents per thous-
and cubic. feet, bat which in no
instance shall be less than ten
cents, shall be added to the above
charge if not paid at the office of
the company on or before the
10th of the month following that
in which the gas was used.
Carlisle consumers are paying
a rate of fifty cents per thousand
cubic feet for all gas consumed
in any one month in excess of
five thousand cubic feet and a
rate of SIS cents per thousand GU
bic feet for all over one thousand
cubic feet up to five thousand.
At Batesville, the consumers
have been paying rate Of SIS
cents per thousand cubic feet for
all ghs consumed in any one
month and a minimum charge Of
one dollar and ten cents per
month was charged where con-
sumers consumed less than three.
thousand cubic feet Of gas in any
one month. Those rates in Bates
vile have been in effect since
January l, 1888.
The Home Utilities company
alleges in both petitions that the
present rates no longer affords
sufficient income and revenue to
meet the cost of service and it is
therefore inadequate, unreason-
able and confiscatory.
The company also points out
since the present rates became
effective, the costs and expenses
OF exploring, drilling, operating
and maintaining gas wells have
greatly and materially increased,
in addition to the cost of mater
ials and labor.
They ask that the Public Util-
tiles Commission of Ohio issue
an order approving and putting
into effect the modified and in
creased rate, as soon as it may
after hearing on the application.
Pending increased gas rates
have been filed for practically
every community now in Noble
county, including Caldwell.

cleaners. Wayne Hayes came
into the business as soon as
he was old enough to be of
assistance.
During a period Of about
six years, John and Gerald Hayes
owned and operated separate
shops. Gerald being located on
West street, in the building now
owned by Owen Pickenpaugh of
the Central Motor Co.
Jok1 Hayes, in the meantime,
had purchased the shop on Cum
berland street from L. D. Renner,
the same site on which the new
building is located and which has
served as a meat market for the
past so years.
In conjunction with their meat
market, Mr.. Hayes owns and
operates a % acre farm south of
Caldwell, where cattle are turned
out and fattened for the kill.
The Hayes slaughter house is
located on state route 285, east
of Caldwell, where all the stock
is personally slaughtered by Mr..
Hayes and his sons. Pens for the
hogs are also located here, with
the number of animals slaugh-
tered dependent on the market.
Killing Of the animals is now
done mostly by shooting, the old
method of knocking them on the
head with small sledge hammer
becoming obsolete.
The hides are cured at the
slaughter house, where they are:
stored in a room and can be kept
for as long as one year. Curing is
done here by applying rock salt.
During the past years in bust
ness, Mr.. Hayes said that hides
have sold at prices ranging from
one-half cent per pound to the
high of 25 cents pound, the peak
being reached last year.
Buying of the necessary stock
is.done locally, with Noble county
farmers furnishing most of the
supply.
Although the number of ami
mails slaughtered varies from
time to time and the winter
months are the slowest, an aver
age of twenty cattle and the same
number of hogs are killed each
month.
Mr.. Hayes lis another business
man in Caldwell who has come
up the hard way. He trucked the
first cattle that were transported
by this method in Noble county.
He has purchased cattle for SIS
and $40 a head but is now paying
approximately $3.50 for the cattle.
The cheapest COW he ever pur-
!. chased cost the amazing amount
Of $3.50 and was used to make
ground beef. He has purchased
hogs for two cents a pound
dressed but today they are selling
at the all time high on the Chi
cago market for 81 cents.
Gerald and Wayne Hayes were
born and reared in CALDWELL,
graduating from the local schools.
During World War II, Gerald
was inducted into the army on
December 8, 1913 at Fort Thomas.
