The inconvenience to which many residents of Cooperstown were put by the discontinuance of the gas service this fall looks to be overcome by the use of electricity. The Colliers Light, Heat & Power Company announced that Cooperstown people may have electricity installed upon terms that will make its use fully as economical as gas. The company plans to furnish at cost all stoves and apparatus, and will have a demonstrator here soon. Simple equipment will cost about $12; very good equipment may be had for $25 to $40; and excellent equipment for about $75. The company will make a special fuel rate at five cents per kilowatt hour on a connected load of 2,000 watts, with a minimum charge of $1.00 per month.
