I shod horses by the light of one of the lamps, pumped tires by hand, and delivered gaso line from a measuring can filled from a pitcher pump. That was 33 years ago. “Today, thanks to PP&L’s progressive ness, we use more than 30 electric motors, and light the shop as bright as day. And we get all this electricity at a small fraction of the cost per kilowatt-hour 33 years ago. “In this great farming territory that ships 600,000 tons of food to market every year, it’s our job to keep farm machinery and trucks repaired and on the go. And we’re doing it, with electric power tools and PP&L’s dependable electric service. “Pacific Power & Light Company has played a big part in development of the • 3 5 YEARS % 1910 Muda lamp re- 1920 places old carbon bulb, giving more Ughi per kwh.

Its forward-looking poli cies, good service, and reasonable rates have helped a lot in getting the new businesses and food processing industries that are lo cating in this area.” e • e • • Clayton Speck, owner and manager of Clayton Speck Motora, has been identified with business activity in Sunnyside since 1900, and with the automobile business since 1911. A native of Lenark, Illinois, he was working for the Milwaukie Railroad in Chicago when he came to Sunnyside on a vacation trip in 1909. He saw the promise in the Yskima Valley, resigned his railroad job, collected a month’s pay of $80, and staked his future on the development of the Sunny side district. When he established his own automobile busi ness, in 1912, there were only about 30 cars in the entire lower Yakima Valley. In 1936 he built his own modern garage building and completely equip ped it with electric power tools. Much of his elec trical equipment has been busy during the war, machining valve fittings for Liberty ships. The Speck home makes generous use of electric ity, too. Their first electric range was bought in 1912. And they have had electric refrigeration since 1924.
