March 9, 1912 RECORD A^TD GUIDE r 499 How Much Do You Lose By Operating Your Own Power Plant? It costs less to buy power from Central Station than it does to generate it in a private power plant. Our engineers have proved this fact frequently and convincingly to interested power users, by actual comparison of facts and figures. And Central Station Service is far more efficient in every way than private plant operation. The heavy initial investment, the 15% annual loss due to interest and depreciation, the serious risk of fire and explosion with attendant high premiums for insurance—these are only some of the disadvant¬ ages of power privately generated. Central Station Power Has No Disadvantages It is the perfect power for any purpose where power is needed. Its use redeems the floor space occupied by a private plant and its coal supply, for productive, rental or storage purposes-^an item not usually considered by the private power-user. Without cost to you, or obligation, one of our engineers will investigate your power necessities. The New York Edison Company At Your Service 55 Duane Street Phone Worth 3000 st, for Susan W.
