William F,- Morgan, D.D., then rector of Christ Episcopal church, began holding services in ptrivate rooms in Greeneville and these sérvices were tinued for some time until Rev. Da- id F. Banks, endeavored to raise funds for a church. A small sum was raised and a lot ‘purchased on the corner of what is now Central avenue and Fourth streets. The cornerstone was iaid but this was as far as the church construce tion went, ang operations were suspend- ed. Rev. John Binney and Dr. Giesey continued the work of holdings meatings in Carpepter's ha’l and in the Baptist church, 3 Dr. Giesey had been hard at vrerk raising funds for a chufch and in 1881 a plot of land at the cornér of Central avenue and 11th street was dceded to the church soclety by the Bleaching and Finishing Company of Greeneville. With the land secured and with the funds raised and increased by the sale of the old lot-the real construction of the pree- ent ‘building started. The cornerstone was Jaid by Rt. Rev.

The Bqlletifi' Co ’ i According - to. a tabulated statement ven The Bulletin by the Norwich gas and electrical commissioners,. it is shown that the Norwich gas department now | has 3,630 gas customers, all of whom will bs affected by the new gas rates that will go’into effect on the first of January, For 3,388 of these, all of whqm use more than 100 cubic feet per mbn}&n ‘| the new ‘rates will be a reduction from the présent rate. For 242 of the custom- ers, who, according.to the tabulated statement,. use but 100 cubic feeét of ‘gas per month. the new rates will be a raise from $1 to $1.03 1-2 per nionth, as was stated in- The Bulletin Wednesday morn- T s s R It is ‘estimated by the gas and- electric commissioners that the jnet result of the new rates ‘will mean a4 saving of about $20.000 to the consumers of gas. The customer list‘of {he city gas de- partment Shows ‘the following users of ‘gas ‘per month: : s 242 at 100: cubic feet. - 1,340 at from 209 to 1,000 cu ft. 1,289 at from 1,100 to 2,000 cu. ft. 465 at from 2,100 to. 3,000 cu. ft. 113 at from 3,100 to 4,000 cu. ft. 67 at from 4,100 to 5,000 cu. ft. 21 at from 5,100 to 6,000 cu. ft. 17 at from ‘6,100 to 7.000 cu. ft. 16"at from’ 7,100 to 8,000 cu_ ft $ at from §,100 to 9,000 cu. ft. 5 at-from 9,100 to 10,000 cu. ft. 7 at from 10,100 to 14,000 cu. ff . 2 at 14,300 cu. ft. and one,each at 16,000, 16,800, 24,900, 25,100, 25,400, 26,~ 000, 26,300, 26,800, 29,000, 29,300, 29900, 31.100, 3 0, 38,000 48,700, 98,100, 334, 500 and 507,600 cu. ft. per month. . As inall lines of business the small purchaser of any c#mmodity’cannot ex- pect to get the same price as the large user, the gas officials say. It is, therefore, thig reason that brings the charge to $1.04 to the consumer of 100 cubic feet which shows a four cent charge above the form- er $1.00 charge, but if Norwich were to have only 100 cubic feet consumers the charge for gas would have to be away above the present charge. In a report made to the gas and elec- trical commissioners by Superintendent C. ‘W. Taggart on the, subject of gas rates, he stated that the subject of rates for g2s'is one that is being given the most serious consideration by the most prom- inent men connected with the gas industry as well as the regulating- bodies of the cbuntry and ‘it is generally conceded that the commedity gas rate taken by itself is neither fair between consumers nor con- ducive fo increased sales and its use Is not recommended. [ A rate to be of the greatest benefit to all conigérned must not only yield a fair return but must be of a character to 1) fairly dbportion total charges for service as_befween classes of consumers; and (2) promote and build up sales. The most equitable guide for a fair apportion- ment of reventies is found in the costs of serving each class of consumers. That is to say, in general, ea¢h consumer should pay for ‘the scrvice he receives— FOR 3.8 be his consumption large or small If any group fails to pay an amount com- mensurate with' the of its service, an unjust burden. is thrown on all other con- " ‘An - examination of the . expenses of leonauctlng gas busines reveals a large number of ‘oxpenditures in no way .con- nected with«the amount of gas made or sold. ‘In fact, many expenditures would continue were no gas sold whatever, It Is clear, therefore, -that no- commodity \ rate could proparly distribute” theses costs. The proper allocation can. only be found out by means of.a divided rate as for in- stance, the “two part rate of: 1. ,Commodity Charge. 2. Consumer Charge. The commodity charge is the charge for the gas itself; that is, it includes pro- Auction cests and the delivery costs that are proportionate to the amount of gas sold. . The consumer charge covers the cost of meter readin®, ketping the consumers' ae- counts, billing, collecting, repairing and maintaiing meters and services, trouble shooting and gratu! 18 work of all kind wrich Is a matter of the number of con- sumers with no bearing as to the quantity of gas they use.

ICE AND SNOW MAKE STORRES HENS DEOP 0" Ice sterms ,rain,‘snow and continued cloudy weather do not stimulate es¥ production. The egs yleid at Storrs last week was affected adversely and the | splendid start during the past month has been partly offset. The hens drop- ped o couple of dozen eggs behind the production and fell twenty eggs below the average for the last seven years. The total for all pens was 1385 eggs or a yield of nearly 20 per cent. At the end of the first month there were two pens of barred Rocks, one pen of Columbfan Rocks, three pens of White Rocks, one pen of White Wy- andottes, and two pens of Rhode Island Reds, a tota]l of eight pens in all which have not laid a single egg. Contrasted with these non-producing pens are fif- teen others that have lald more than 100 eggs each. Pullets are not of course expected in the beginning of thelr lay. Ing vear to produce full size eggs. The fact is that durinz the first month thelr roduct will average from ten to twenty Pe rcent. under the standard two ounce eggs. There are, of course. exceptions to the rule. ‘For example Rhode Isiand Red pu’lets Nos. 501, 506 and 507 own- od by The Orchards from South Hadley, Mass. These three pullets laid last week eggs that average 36 ounces to the dozen instead of 21 or 22 ounce eggs as most of the birds are laying. During the last week !n November Charles H. Lane's pen of Rhode Island Reds from Southboro, Mass, was in first place with a yield of 37 eggs An- other pen of the same breed from South Hadley, Mass., was second best pem with a production of 36 eggs. The Goshen Poultry Club’s pen of White Leghorns trom Goshen, Conn., was a close third with a score of 35 eggs. Applecrest Farm’s pen of Rhode Islard Reds from Hampton Falls, N. H. James F. Mac- dona'd’s White Rocks from East Pem- broke, Mass, and Benjamin F. Decker's White Wyandottes from Ridgewnod, N. 7. all ted for fourth place with 34 eggs each.
