May 4, 1912 RECORD AND GUIDE 939 Do You Contemplate Building Now or At Any Time ? A private plant is expensive to install and to operate. Interest, depreciation, and other "fixed" costs, including accident and fire insurance, and taxes, amount to at least 15% each year. There is a waste of valuable floor space caused by the power plant and its coal supply. The risk of fire and explosion is not only great in itself but it makes insurance premiums higher. And private plant power carries no assurance of con¬ stant sufficiency and reliability. Central Station Power By installing Central Station Power you eliminate the heavy initial cost of a private plant and also all the incidental expense. And Kdison power has so many advantages in the way of efficiency and effect¬ iveness, and its cost is so low, that it is by far the best and cheapest power. Almost all of New York's new buildings buy their power from Central Station. Do you want to know why ? Just ask for one of our engineers. No obligation to you.
