Natural Gas Gives New Economy To Users Os Automatic Heating In Area. Officials Say. RATES ARE LOWERED The use of gaa for home heating baa gained yearly all over the country, until at the beginning of thia year there were more than !. 225.000 residences heated with thia modern fuel. Asserted by the gaa company to be the only compieUly automatic fuel, the availability Os this desirable method of healing has increased throughout thia area since the introduction of refined natural gas. The coat of gas home heating waa reduced one-third when refined natural gas waa introduced tn Decatur. Fort Wayne and adjacent communities on the ayatem of the Northern Indiana Public Service Company. Ry making thia ideal method of heating cheaper than ever before, the number of home heating cuatomera has increased 1 materially. **Aak the man who'a using gaa heat." la the suggestion of the gas company. “Before you order next winter's fuel, get all the facts about gaa heating. It coats less to install than any other automatic heat, it Is the only 100 per cent automatic fuel, it is clean, silent and odorless, and it provides uniform healthful warmth. You save on upkeep and depreciation of your heating equipment, too." Gaa home heating, regarded aa the lateat step in modernity, is only one of the four big household jobs that gaa performs. More than i 15.000.000 women have chosen gaa for cooking, nearly a million and one-half gas refrigerators are in use. and hundreds of thousands of homes enjoy the hotel-like comfort of automatic water heating with gaa. Regarding the rates for these services, a customer is entitled to a lower average cost per heat unit as he adds appliances, with the home heating customer enjoying the lowest because he is placing the service to its maximum use. In other words, the more gaa you use, the cheaper it becomes per unit
