We have in effect a combinatipn lighting and cooking rate which insures most of the electricity used in cooking being billed' at 2 cents per kilowatt; hour The electricity used by the range also tends to lower the rate per kilowatt hour for lighting and domestic appliances because the more kilowatt hours used per month the lower the. average rate. The average consumer uses in an average month 30 kilowatt hours for lighting, ironing, washing, deaning,.etc.r'and 140 kilowatt hours for cooking, or a total of 170 kilowatt hours for lighting, appliance and range use. . If the lighting installation is 600 watts or less(i. ' e.; if tne total-wattage of all incan descent lamps in the home is 600 or less) the customer pays for: The first 13 kilowatt hours per month $1.00 The next 7 kilowatt hours per month at 7c .49' v . ..!..

'''- . -:r- N THE joyous possession of an electric rangV .there comes to the heart of the housewife, the certain promise of ' modern science: and its fulfill ment that the kitchen is cool and clean; that there is absolute safety; that there is certain, precise regulation, and that there is economy in operation, time and labor.' ' - . r . .Nothing could be more easy to operate than an electric range. Every heating unit is controlled by a snap switch, and a turn, of the .'wrist gives "high," "medium" or "low" heat as desired. - The ovens are heavily insulated to retain the Jieai arid thus allow baking and roasting to be done with the min imum use of electricity. : AH the heat issretained in the oven with, consequent saving in the shrinkage of meats, witn lessdrying out of breads, cakes and pas-: try. Oven temperature control is automatic in several' types of - electric ranges and uniform temperatures are easily maintained in all types, of -electric ranges.
