But if other prices had gone down with the same consistency and at the same rate as the cost of electric lighting in your home, such an advertisement would not be extraor dinary today. Prices would be just that low. For, since 1913, THE COST OF ELECTRIC LIGHTING IN THE HOME HAS BEEN RE DUCED 57 PER CENT. If steak of the sirloin variety, which was selling for an average of 25 cents a pound back in 1913, milk, bread, ham and potatoes had gone down as much, their prices today would be just about as you see them listed in our imaginary advertisement. The greatly reduced cost of lighting has been due to two things: an increase of 71.8 per cent in the efficiency of electric lamps (we admit you can’t do much to improve the efficiency of a sirloin steak) and A DECREASE OF 26.3 PER CENT IN THE COST OF YOUR ELECTRIC SERVICE. – JN COfT LIVING OP displayed While the above, cost as of well the commodities as the gen eral cost of living, is still far ABOVE the prices of 1913, the cost of electric COST OF KLKCTRICITY service is far BELOW what it in IN OEOftOIA HOMES- was pre-war days, one of the very, very „/ few necessities of life about which led iciTt mg' that can be said.
