Parma Districts RELIABLE, LOW COST ELECTRIC SERVICE For Irrigating, Lighting And General Power Purposes, Will Be Furnished By Idaho Power & Light Company (FORMERLY BEAVER RIVER POWER COMPANY) IN AMPLE TIME FOR THE 1915 IRRIGATION SEASON The new policy of Idaho I'tfblic Utilities ('ommis Hion granting relief to communities inadequately serv ed with electric power at unreasonably high rates, will enable us to build our lines into your territory and to exercise the franchise granted us by the coun cils of your various cities Because you have been unfortunate enough to live in a non-competitive territory, you have been com pelled to pay about forty per cent more for electric service than your neighbors in Caldwell and Boise territory. Following this announcement will undoubtedly come promises of reduced rates and improved service but you should not forget the twelve cent rate you paid during the years your neighbors have had a nine cent rate through the benefits of competition. Let our representatives have an opportunity to call before you contract for future service. Idaho Power & Light Company MAIN OFFICE: EMPIRE BUILDING, BOISE . . '.-. ... .'-.'''
