Enough electricity for summer months!

HAMMOND — Northern Indiana Public Service Company has announced that the utility has sufficient electric capability to meet summer demands, barring some unforeseen mechanical problems or environmental complications. In a statement issued May 18, Edmund A. Schroer. NIPSCo president and chief executive officer, said, “We have enough installed net capacity and purchased power to meet a forecasted peak load of 2,120 megawatts this summer and maintain an adequate reserve." Schroer also said. “I am not overly optimistic about the future, however New units must come on line as scheduled, or we could experience supply problems in the late 1970 s or 19006." In the meantime, the utility is working diligently to upgrade its new unit at the R. M. Schafer

Loons for groin storage explained With corn planting intentions up two per cent and soybean planting intentions up nine per cent from last year’s actual planted acreage, many fanners are considering adding to their storage and grain handling capacity. With this in mind, fanners may want to consider the various means of financing this new equipment. ’’Presently, the storage and drying equipment loan program is very liberal,” says Phil Braman of the local agricultural stabilization and conservation service (ASCS) office. “Major changes were made in the ASCS loan program to encourage on-the-farm storage and drying capacity.” Braman noted. Farmers should be aware of these changes if they are considering purchasing new grain storage, drying, or handling equipment. Interest on these loans has been reduced to seven per cent per annum for the life of the loan. Loans can be made for up to 85 per cent of the net cost, including foundation and electrical work. When applying for a loan at the ASCS Office the farmer should have an itemized invoice from the vendor of the equipment he plans to purchase Loans up to $25,000 can be approved by the local ASC committee without requiring a real estate mortgage. For more details of the grain facility loan program contact the ASCS Office at 114 So. Buffalo in Warsaw.
