Electric System
Sale Closed; Town
Pockets a66,5OO
Ohio Power Lines Cut Into
Bluffton System Last
Thursday Morning

At 11:10 a. m. last Thursday morn
ing there was momentary interrup-
tion of electric service in Bluffton
but it was not until later in the after
noon that most of the towns resi-
dents were aware that it meant that
the municipal plant had been closed
down and the electric current surgine
through the lines was that of The
Ohio Power company.
Only minutes before the power in
terruption, officials of the utility
company had placed a check for
S466,500 in the hands of Harvey
Bauman, president of the board of
public affairs. Mayor w. A. Howe
and members of the board had signed
the final papers closing the transac-
tion. The meeting was held in the
w. High street branch OF the Ma
tional Bank in Lima.
ID. M. Conn, district manager for
Ohio Power, represented the utility
in the transaction.
In addition to Mayor Howe and
Bauman the village was represented
at the meeting by Solicitor John
Romey, A. j. B. Longsdorf, clerk OF
the BPA.; Forest W. Basinger and
Herbert Conrad, members of the
board; Frank Todd, village treasurer
and Councilman Gerald Swank whc
was present as an observer.
Date and time for closing the dea
remained a closely guarded secre
until late Wednesday evening. How
ever, most Bluffton citizens were no
aware that the ownership had chang
| ed until after it was all over Thurs
| day. Officials of the power company
said that they had not received 8
final ok from government officials or
the transaction utnil Wednesday
afternoon at o'clock.
Of the total amount received for
the sale of the Bluffton generating
and distribution system, $130,S10
must be used to retire outstanding
bonded indebtedness on the municipal
plant. 1t is expected that S250,000
will be used to pay off sewerage
disposal plant notes in order to fore
stall assessments on all real estate
in the village. The remaining
SS5, 500 will remain to be used only
for permanent Improvements in the
village.
Last Thursdays transaction
brought to a close long and heated
village controversy over the sale of
the municipal plant which has fur
nished electric lights and power here
for the past 81 years.
1t also ended last minute threats
of an injunction suit to halt the sale
of the plant by persons in the com
munity who felt that a higher cash
bid of the Hancock Wood Electric
Cooperative was the best bid. The
board Of public affairs had rejected
it after Solicitor John Romey declar-
ed it to be an invalid bid.

Robert Carl Landes, a Bluffton

inches of July rainfall is said to be
considered average over most of the
corn belt as shown by weather records
Of the last 30 years.
In the eastern and southern parts
of Ohio below Dayton the corn crop
il not expected to be as good as last
year, due mainly to the fact that the
rains have not been as abundant.

mrlux or rs pupils who tranS1
schools in other cities. Superintend-
ent of Schools A. B. Murray said that
their addition to the roster brought
total registrations to 573 as compar-
ed with sos on opening day last year.
School authorities had predicted a
registration under last years figure
due to drop in first grade enroll
ment from 20 a year ago to so this
year.
The welcoming of as many as %
new pupils through transfer was
something new for Bluffton schools.
Ordinarily in the Stable population
of the community, new pupils from
other districts number only from six
to 10 year. Last year the school
lost more than it gained through
pupil transfers.
All of the gain is reflected in the
high school where registrations jump
ed from 224 last year to 248 Tuesday.
This was partly accounted for by the
fact that 81 seventh graders came
into high school as compared with
only SO last September. Grade school
enrolment totaled 325.
An unusual feature of the high
school enrolment is the fact that
there are 81 more girls than boys,
much to Coach Schmidt's dismay.
Carbohydrate. the enrolment
Tuesday was as follows: first, so;
second, 10; third, 62; fourth, 80; fifth,
AZ; and sixth, 81.
High school: seventh, So; eighth,
80; ninth, So; tenth, 40; eleventh, 80,
and twelfth, 81.

reason why present revenues from
the water charges will not be suffici-
ent for the operation. He added
however, that in order to do so it
will be necessary to further reduce
the crew servicing the water system
and sewage disposal plant to four
employees plus cne Office clerk.
Mr.. Bauman said that the board
believes it will be possible to operate
the sewage disposal plant with one
and half employees, and that the
water department will require two
and a half-or four persons al
together Two more employees will
have to be laid off, if the crew is to
be reduced to four. ..
The board will meet tonight,
Thursday, to further discuss the re-
organization and to set up a new
salary schedule.
Laid off from work last Friday
were the light plants two engineers,
Roland Luginbuhl and George Nc
Cune, two outside Iinemen, Gould
Akerman and Kenneth Finton, and
John Balmer, 72-year-old water de-
partment employee.
Refunds Due Residents
One of the next steps in wind
ing up the affairs of the electric
business will be to render final
bills for electric current, and al
so to return approximately s2,700
in electric meter deposits. This
will amount to SIS for residential
consumers and from SIS TO $40
paid by businesses when appli-
cations were made originally for
electric service.
The tBPA president said that
no time will be lost in getting out
the electric bills so that they will
not be confused with the first
bills to be issued by The Ohio
Power Co..
AT the same time, the board
plans to issue an extra water bill
to bring water billings up on a
current basis. In the past. water
bills have been one month in ar
rears. The extra billing will
bring them up to date.
A number of major improvements
should be made within a reasonable
time in the water system, Bauman
Sasd IE iv v,IanpaJ - ,,,n,,a aII v,sy,aS
and pumps from the present building
in the interest of efficiency, and also
to free the former power building so
that it can be disposed of by the
village.
Long Range Improvements
A number of additional water
mains are also needed to provide a
better system OF circulation and bet
ter water pressure in different parts
of town.
These water main improvements
can probably be made one at time
under long-range plan, Bauman
said. However, he indicated that the
board would welcome the use of some
of the money resulting from the
electric plant sale for these perman-
ent Improvements.
After the $25O,000 sewer assess
ment notes are paid off from the pro-
ceeds of the light plant sale, $4,000
will remain for other permanent viii
lage Improvements.

Malls Leave
Tells Dairymen
To Combat Off
FlavOrs In Milk

Of-havOrs in milk are giving
some dairymen gray hairs, says
Delmar ]. Young, extension dairy
specialist at the University of Del
aware. When such milk is refused
by the dealer it can mean an eco
nomic setback for the farmer
These unpleasant tastes and
odors can come from feed, bac-
terra, absorbed fiavOrs, chemical
changes in milk composition and
foreign materials. Young assures
dairy farmers that they can COM
bat OF flavOrs by careful attention
to feeding practices, sanitation and
cleanliness in handling milk and
milking equipment.
He gives the following recon-
mendatons: For garlic, strong sill
age and other feed flavors, guard
against using them in the feed sup
ply. Feed the cows good quality
hay or silage within six hours after
each milking.
Various bacteria cause bitter,
fishy or fruity fiavOrs. Quick,
thorough cooling of milk is most
important, along with strict sani-
tation and protection of milk from
cooler to plant.
Absorbed or "barny' fiavors
come from musty barn air breathed
by the COW at milking time. Good
ventilation and clean barns will
help prevent this trouble.
Strong, slightly salty flavOrs due
to chemical changes are noticed
among cows in late lactatiOn, old
age or suffering from udder infec-
tions. Check each COW as you milk.
Good fertilized pastures with La
dino clover and orchard grass will
help these COWS.
Foreign odOrs can be picked up
from water, milk cans, medicines,
fly spray, paint, gasoline or any
strOng-smelling material used about
the barn and milk house. Keep a
watch for these possible taste
communicating materials.
