As the election is only a week distant, and as some of your readers were out of the city when the question was discussed be- fore, it may be of interest to bring to mind, briefly, some of the reasons why the city commission asks the people to vote for bonding the light and water plant to the amount of $130,000 for improvements of the power plant and extensions of the! distribution system. The present plant has overreached | the limit of its capacity, especially as rezards the generation of elec- tricity. It contains two generators | of a rated capacity, under present boiler conditions, of 100 and 24 electrical horse power, respectively. ‘ It is not possible to carry more than a total of about 350 horse power, even though the generators would | carry as high as fifty per cent over- load for a few hours, because tho, boilers can not supply steam at the, proper pressure and degree of su-i perheat. Against the total of about ; 350 horse power of available elec- trical energy there is a demand for about 425 horse power of clectrical | energy at nightfall, when the eclt- rus fruit packing industry resumes. It will be impossible, therefore toj supply the citrus fruit packers with [be used for fuel as a subsuitute fm" power for a period of the day about three hours long beginning with nightfall. The demand on the boilers is so much beyond their ef- the steam is drawn away so rapidly that foaming results, andw ater is drawa through the steam pipes into the engine cyl- inders. This is a dangerous condition for the engines as the presence of a con- siderable per centage of water may cause the blowing out of tne cylin- der heads, and cause loss of lifc as well ag damage to the building and machinery. The smaller engine is old, ncarly worn out, and likely to fail at any Yes The soiled White Crepe de Chene Gown or Waist can be Dry Clean- ed and made to look mnew again if allowed to go THROUGH | I Our Process!

The smaller engine is wasteful of The boilers are of a type uneconomical proportionately than others of their type on account of being overloaded, The boilers furnish steam to an| air compressor and pumps. In case of a fire the pumps are speeded up | to increase the pressure ot the wa- ter in the mains and more steam than usual is taken by the pumps. As the boilers can furnish only suf- ficient steam for normal operation of the pumps when the maxlmuml electrical demand occurs, 1t is evi- dent that should a fire occur at lhls, time, early evening, part of the elec- trical demand could not be supplied, Consequently, it would be necessary to shut off the street lights should a fire occur in the early evening. Re’erring azain tc the water sup- ply part of the plant, it should be noted that there is no provision for duplicaticn. At times of maximum consumption there is only one pump and air compressor capadle of sup- plying the demand. Therefore in case of unything goine wicng, the water supply wou'!d be interrupted, which would he serious at any time, , and especially in case of 2 fire. The capacity of the eclevated tank is only 70,000 gallons. If the tank were full at the outbreak of the fire, and a pump became crippled, the elevat- ed tank would supply water for only a little over an hour, and at only ordinary pressure. The improved plant will be de- signed so that crude oil or coal can wood. Possibly engines will be in-! stalled which will use crude oil by internal combustion, without using steam boilers. There will be no difficulty in de- signing a plant which will save fifteen per cent of th fuel bill, if steam is used, or one third dr more of the fuel bill if ofl engines are used. The fuel bill is now about $9,000 per year, and increaring rap- idly as the city grows. It wil] therefore pay to go to con- siderable extra expense to get ma- chinery of a type which will save fuel. There are ‘those who claim that $60,000 is too much to spend on the power plant and that halt of this amount is sufficient to put the plant in good order.

Tt is true, doubtless, that it will be difficult money now; but the power plant is to obtain in such shape that to wait for bet- ter financial conditions is inadvis- able. The plant needs the help now in order to continue to give service. The electrie light and water plant can be made to pay the interest and sinking fund on its present deit and what ig proposed to be expended now in improvements. It will there- fore cause no increase in general taxes. It can also continue to fur- growth or for getting machinery of an efficient type so as to save fuel. The present electric light and water plant was, when built in 1910, thought to be of sufficiently large output to meet the demand for from ten to fifteen years.
