FOR MANUFACTURING PURPOSES
If you contemplate establishing any business requiring POWER in Portland or its suburbs, it will be to your advantage to talk with us before
placing orders for machinery.
The economics effected by the use of ELECTRIC power arc : Lesser cost of operation, smaller amount of space required, and noteworthy
saving in machinery and initial cost of installation of plant.
Modern methods of manufacturing demand prompt and efficient service for the elaborate and expensive machinery in which the owner's money is
invested, and INTENSIFIED PRODUCTION is imperative Hint the capital invested may be turned over as many times as possible during
the year.
We arc furnishing 20,000 horsepower to manufacturing establishments at Oregon City, and more than 1 5,000 horsepower is used in Portland for
lighting, for manufacturing and for operating the street railways.
Manufacturers arc invited to consult us in regard to the use of Electric Power. Our expert is in a position to advise as to the best sizes and ar
rangement of motors.
