“Pacific Power & Light has made
electricity our cheapest servant”
says William B. Coni of Bend, Oregon
“IT was an important step forward for the
people who live in central Oregon when
Pacific Power & Light came here. We need
PP&L’« resources, technical knowledge and
experience to get the right kind of elec
tric service, so essential to growing areas
like this.
“PP&L has increased our power re
sources, improved our electric service and
brought down the price of electricity. A
good electric service company never stands
still—it’s always growing and improving
—and that’s what I particularly like about
PP&L. Those fellows are always out in
front with the latest in electrical progress.
“We’ve got just about everything elec
trical in our home, and PP&L has made
electricity our cheapest servant.”
William B. C om , electrical supervisor of the Shevlin-
Hixon pine mills of Bend, Oregon, came west from
Minnesota in 1910 and started to work for the Allis-
Chalmers Company in the electrification of lumber plants
in the Pacific Northwest. During the ensuing years, while
following the practical work, Mr. C om also continued
hit studies of the technical end of electrical engineering.
In 191J he came to Bend to work on the electrification
of the Shevlin-Hixon mill, continued to work there as
an electrician, and in 1917 wax appointed electrical super-
visor. Mr. Cone ia responsible for the maintenance and
operation of 730 electric motor«, ranging in aire from
% h.p. to the big 250 h.p. motora that operate the band
saws in the mill. He also hae charge of more than a
hundred miles of electrical circuita supplying lighting
and signal control and fire alarm systems.
Ingenious and inventive, Mr. Cone has designed snd
put into operation three separate electric services for the
Shevlin mill, and has at times designed electrical mill
equipment ahead of manufacturers. One of his latest
inventions is an electrically-driven bicycle, powered by
an auto storage battery and an electric starter from a
car—a device used to get him through the 1% miles of
mill yard with no waste of time.
