THE LOCAL UTILITY


agrees to pay for a certain
amount of gas each month,
ranging from small amounts
in the summer months to
large amounts in the winter
months. The latter are de-
termined in great part by the
peak demand the utility
made upon its supplier in the
previous winter.
For this reason Washing
ton Gas Light is producing
the artificial gas at its plants
in Rockville and at Anacostia.
At Rockville it is producing
propane gas. This is the
same gas that farmers and
commuters, living beyond
the extent of the gas mains,
purchase in small tanks,
usually delivered and in
stalled on a wall Of the
house. It is in liquid form
in the tank but becomes q
gas as 1t is released.
Washington Gas Light gets
It's propane In tank cars at
the railroad siding, of Its
Rockville plant, which can
hold 10 cars. Each holds,
10000 gallons, which pros
duces $4,000 cubic feet Of
gas. The company has 81
million gallons of this pro-
pane in liquid form in stor-
age at its Rockville plant.
BY releasing this as gas into
the flow Of Its lines, 1t is able
to keep the demand on the
supplier down by many mil
lions Of cubic feet on a peak
day.
In addition 1t makes

Unit oil gas" at its Anacostia
plant by. cracking ordinary
fuel oil under high tempera-
lures. The residue is a very
good grade Of tar, which IS
sold to highway builders.

The
Rambler
Reports
Record Broken
By GEORGE KENNEDY

The Washington Gas Light
Co. delivered a record volume
to its customers Monday
about 382 million cubic feet.
The previous record was on
February II, l95S-370 mil
lion cubic feet.
A popularity Of the gas
business is that the local
utilities do their best to keep
down their purchases Of ma
.tural gas from their supplier
on peak days.
It's all rather complicated
but as the Rambler under
stands it, after a conversa-
tion with Richard H. Bussard,
vice president in charge of
operations, 1t works out
something like this:
The local gas company's
contract with the supplier, in
this case the Atlantic Sea-
board Corp, which is a sub
sidiary Of Columbia Gas, is
based both on the actual
amount of gas delivered and
on the peak demands the
supplier agrees to meet.
The contracts are negoti-
ated early every year for the
coming winter. This gives
the supplier time to prepare
for possible increased de-
mands on the part of local
utilities by looping" or
paralleling, its pipe lines.

Bankers Told OF Impact
OF Farm Programs On
Economy )
(continued from mage one)


important factors in the changes
that are taking place in the First
States agriculture. He pointed out
that Delaware's population in
creased AZ per cent from 1850 to
1868 compared with only Is per
cent for the U. s. as a whole dur
ling the same period.
DR.. Bernard F. Stanton, Cornell
University farm economist, cited
improved technology, enabling one
man to do the work of several, US
ing older methods, as a reason for
the growth in size of individual
farm and capital required to op-
crate it. Declaring that large cor
poration farms will be the excep-
ton here rather than the rule in
the next 10 years, he emphasized
that real opportunities exist for
those who operate family farms
efficiently and use capital wisely
Referring to the results of ma
tional farm programs and their
effects on Eastern agriculture, DR..
BrandOw said he believes the pro-
grams have held net farm income
at least one-fourth higher in the
past few years than it would have
been in free markets. But this
has been achieved only by large
government expenditures and the
accumulation of large stocks of
commodities" he declared.
Commenting on possible future
adjustments in national farm poll
cy, DR.. Brandow stated that if far
mers' net income is to be main
tanned at present levels, while re-
ducing treasury costs and accumu-
lated stocks, some means of effec-
tive production control will be
maintained at present levels, while
reducing treasury costs and ac-
cumulated stocks, some means of
effective production control will
be necessary.
Mr.. Mcdaniel, discussing fac
tors influencing the increased val
ue of Delaware farm land, cited:
% the demand for farm land for
residential and industrial construc-
ton and other non-farm use; (2)
increasing size of commercial
farms; and 80 imitation. He said
that Delaware farmers are farm
ing more intensively today, point
ing to so per cent increase in
total physical agricultural produc-
ton in 1858, compared with the
1945-49 average.
Dr. Stanton stressed that most
of the new laborsaving equipment
being introduced on farms re-
quires relatively heavy regular use
to make it pay over the older
methods. Farmers with only a
limited acreage should think in
terms of either expanding their
businesses or taking full-time
jobs off the farm, he said.
Mr.. William r. Brown, cashier
of the First National Bank of Wy
oming and president Of the Della
ware Bankers Association, presid-
ed at a special luncheon in Agri-
cultural Hall at the start of the
conference. Dean George M. Worri-
low Of the School of Agriculture
welcomed the bankers to the cam
pus and presided during the after
noon program.
The conference was sponsored
by the Delaware Bankers Asso-
citation, in cooperation with the
School Of Agriculture of the Uni
versity of Delaware.
