Georgia Power Co. Customers Pay
21% Less Than National Average
Georgia Power Company
residential customers during
1969 paid an average price of
1.65 cents per kilowatt-hour,
21.4 percent below the nation
al average. Edwin I. Hatch,
company president, cited those
figures in a year-end report
on the utility’s activities.
He said that residential cus
tomers on Georgia Power lin
es used an average of 7,920
kilowatt-hours during the past
year, 10 percent increase over
1968 and 20.5 percent above
the national average.
The additional of 27.000 resi
dential customers and 4,200
commercial and industrial cus
tomers during the year brought
to more than 960,000 the num
ber of customers the company
serves.
An estimated 12,000 electri
cally heated residences and
apartments were added to the
power company's lines during
the year. The utility now serv
es some 68,000 electrically
heated houses and apartments.
This is 23 percent increase
over 1968,
Mr. Hatch said that Georgia
continued to lead the nation
in the number of electrically
heated commercial buildings.
At year’ end, there wore al
most 11.000 such installations
in Georgia Power’s service
area. Nearly 1,200 of those
were added to 1969. This is the
largest number of such build
ings constructed on Georgia
Power lines in any one year.
Energy sales to residential
customers rose 15.2 percent
during the year while sales to
industrial and commercial cus
tomers increased 9 9 percent
Georgia Power’s tax bill for
1969 was s6l’4 million. This
figure was nearly s9*4 million
more than taxes charged to
the utility in 1968.
The company invested some
SIBB million in construction
during 1969. Work was com
pleted on a 490 000 kilowatt
fourth unit at Plant Harllee

Why does Bill Northcutt
need a new supply
of ‘Sold’ signs?
He builds beautiful custom-designed houses with
roomy interiors, handsome appointments, and
all the extras that today’s home shoppers are
looking for. At a good price, too.
But something else. National housing trends
show that “Sold” on new total-electric homes is
a sign of the times. And Bill Northcutt is with it!
‘‘My houses in Wood Valley* and Fox Chase*
are totally total-electric,” Bill says. “I build noth
ing else. Modern electric heating and cooling
systems are standard in all Northcutt homes, as
are work-saving electric dishwashers, ranges, dis
posers, and numerous other electrical features
that help me sell faster and more profitably.”
Need we say that Bill Northcutt is sold on
total-electric?
•Wood Valley is located at Morrow in Claytaa
County. Fox Chase is in DeKalb County.
Georgia Power Company
Branch, located on Lake Sin
clair between Eatonton and
Milledgeville. The facility now
has a capacity of more than
114 .million kilowatts and is
the most powerful on the
company’s system.
Work continued on the
Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant
the first nuclear generating
facility on the Georgia Power
system. Located on the Alta
maha River near Baxley, the
generating station is scheduled
for completion in 1973 and
will cost approximately $l5O
million. This is the largest
in the State’s history. The
plant’s 800.000-kilowatt gener
ator will be Georgia Power’s
largest single unit.
Construction proceeded on
a 500,000-kilowatt unit at Plant
Hammond near Rome. The
unit, scheduled for completion
this year, will nearly triple
Hammond’s size and generat
ing capacity.
Progress was made on a
1.4 million-kilowatt plant be
ing built on the Etowah River
between Cartersville and
Rockmart. One of the facili
ty’s two 700 000-kilowatt units
is scheduled for completion in
1971 and the other in 1972
The company in 1969 built
more than 500 miles of trans
mission and distribution lines
and now has some 37,500 miles
of such lines. Con
struction was begun on two
500 000-volt lines from Plant
Etowah to the Atlanta area.
These will be the first lines
of that voltage on the com
pany’s system.

PHE PENDULUM
Pilate, the Biblical character, said: “What I have
written 1 have written.”
Pilate said this because a group tried to get him
to erase the words he had put on the Cross. He left
the words there, however, because of many reasons
but one reason was political and another was due
to fear.
We are beginning a New Calendar Year, 1970 A.
). This fact has at least two “sobering” thoughts.
)ne has to do with what I have written on my cha
•acter during the past year. The other thought has
to do with the passing of time — we cannot stop
the swinging of the pendulum of the clock of time!
Yes, we can stop a mechanical clock but “time march
es on just the same.”
Look at what you write, figuratively speaking:
There are four things you cannot call back (of
course there are more); (1) A spoken WORD, (2)
A. wasted moment, (3) A day which has passed, (4)
A spent dollar.
Did you ever try to call back something you have
said ? It is utterly impossible! Apologize, cry, worry,
and beg as you may, is of no concrete elimination. It
has been said and it goes on and on, because the
sound has registered in someone’s inner being. This
word can be struck away in a person’s sub-concious
mind, but some how or another it will rise to the
conscious and active mind. The WORD lives again.
What about wasted moments? My, my the oppor
tunities wasted moments steal from us. Well, we
ire to GIVE AN ACCOUNT of all the wasted
moments.
“I wish that I could call back that day,” you hear
people say. This is of no profit. However, if a per
on will profit by that experience he can remedy the
’’uture, but to call back the day is impossible. THE
2ENDULUM swings. The best thing to do is to be
where you ought to be, when you ought to be there,
doing what you ought to do while you are there.
Now. my friends, this sort of living is what makes
GREAT characters.
“I wish I had not spent that dollar,” many people
>ay. Well it is spent. The remedy is not to spenc
any more dollars for which you will be sorry.
God has given you a “clean sheet of paper,” called
“The New^ Year.” It will be soiled only by you. Be
areful what you write in the area of behavior. If
you write it, you will have written it. You can’t
erase it.
Let this Methodist preacher hope and pray for you
a very Wonderful New Year. Heed the above advice
and you will be happy with God.
NEW SOUTHERN

PULPWOOD RECORD
With more than 37 million
cords produced, southern pulp
wood production advanced to
a new high in 1968. Nelson
Brightwell, forester with the
University of Georgia Coop
erative Extension Service,
said this represents an in
crease of 10 percent over the
1967 production.
Brightwell said the annual
survey of all pulpmills in the

12 southern states increaser
their annual production. The
greatest boost was in Missis
sippi where an increase of o
ver one million cords was re
ported. This is the largest an
nual increase ever recorded in
a southern state, the Exten
sion forester added. This
boost moved Mississippi from
sixth to third place in total
production.
Georgia ranked second in
annual change with a gain of
almost 600,000 cords.
Only two states, South Car
olina, and North Carolina
showed a decrease from
the 1967 production level.

KEEPING GREENERY
Want your greenery to last
for four to six weeks? Home
economists with the Coopera

one quart of warm water for

flowers and greenery longer,
follow these simple directions.
About 1,242,000 beneficiaries
will participate in VA’s train

Containerized
Plants Show
Much Promise
As civilized man rushes to
build his super highways, his
super jetports and his subdi
visions, the land available for
growing his food become more
and more scarce.
But two University of
Georgia Agricultural Experi
ment Station engineers, Char
les Rice and Carlisle Cobb
Jr., have designed a method
of growing plants in contain
ers which holds promise for
increasing the food supply ir
those parts of the world
where famine is a daily real
ity.
Unlike greenhouse grown
plants, the containerized plants
are completely portable. This
portability means that land
otherwise unsuitable for grow
ing food can be used for this
purpose.
Each container can provide
space for one or more plants
depending upon the size of

the plant, and.th* container.
With • mechanical controls for
regulating water and fertili
zer, each is completely self
sustaining.
The ability to partially con
trol the enviroment of the
plants grown in the contain
ers offers definite possibility
of increasing yields and pro
viding greater control of in
sects and diseases.
“The day will come, and
probably sooner than you
think, when we will see rows
of these type containers set
ting in fields of marginal land
and growing food to feed a
lot of people,” Rice predicted,
this system really has the
bloom.”
Peaches, plums, figs and or
anges have been grown suc
cessfully in containers at the
University of Georgia. Smaller

plants such as to
matoes, strawberries
and rye have also been grown
and have produced crops. Sim
ilar plants left to depend up
on naturally available nutri
ents and water have withered
and died.
