Electric Power Liked in Woodworking Factories The economy of electric power in woodworking factories can be shown in a number of ways. The most convincing is- , the expression of satis fied users. For instance, Mr. John IT. Bohn, Manager of the Idaho Match Block Works, at Snndpoint, Idaho, says : ' ' We have used electric power for our four motors for two years and it has given us full satisfaction." Mr. E. L. Bennett, Secretary-Treasurer of the Riverside Shingle com pany, Ltd., says: "Wo are using electric power for the manufacture of shingles. We find tho electric current to be very efficient, handling our work at reasonable cost. The motors have given us satisfactory re sults in every manner possible." We will supply experts m to solve every power need. Oregon Power Co, Telephone 173. .. r"4g iwiViwc , i hfnuirtynu
