Report of Manager.
MESSRS. EDWIN E. EMERSON, Chairman,
FRED A. SWAIN and WM. E. ARNOLD,
Municipal Light Board, Wakefield, Mass.
Gentlemen :- The eleventh annual report of the manager, showing the operation of the plant for the year ending Jan- uary 31st, 1905, is respectfully submitted.
The sales of gas and electric current each show a gain of 14 per cent. approximately.
The new bench, tar extractor and tar well have been Installed and are giving good results.
The gas main extension to Greenwood has been completed and in operation since July 16, 1904.
A new horse, wagon for coke, and harness have been purchased.
Repairs have been made on the electric lines and gas mains to a greater extent than in past years.
An addition to the office was made, and a show room fitted up with appliances, showing some of the uses of gas and electricity.
Street lights were operated 1,688 hours, an increase over last year of 36 hours.
Moonlight schedule 1,215 hours.
Incandescent lights were operated 5,180 hours, an increase over last year of 369 hours,
Total number of electric consumers connected 190, an increase of 11 over last year.
Total number of gas consumers 718, a gain of 131 over last year.
One hundred ten gas ranges, five water heaters, ten radiators, four gas logs, and two gas engines-one 10-horse
356
power and one 2-horse power-have been connected, mak- ing a total of 456 gas ranges and 7 engines.
Gas manufactured,
16,015,000 cu. ft.
" accounted for, 13,105,000 « "
" not accounted for,
2,910,000 ‹‹ .. or 18.1 per cent.
There have been 1,033 tons of steam coal used in electric station, and 1,508 tons gas coal used in works.
Gas mains were extended on the following streets :
Main street from Junius Beebe to
residence of Thomas Martin,
1,400 ft. 2 in. pipe.

The gas main extension to Greenwood and Boyntonville was begun May 15, 1904, and gas was supplied to twenty- eight consumers on July 16, following. Since that time thirty-nine additional consumers have been connected, mak- ing a total of sixty-seven consumers, sixty-three of whom have stoves, also one 10-horse power engine at Hellen's coal yard.
The work was carried along as fast as conditions would warrant, an average of fifty men being employed.
The average cost of the pipe, in the ground and covered,
357
including pump, pulsating tank and every item of expense, was thirty cents per foot.
If in the future extensions are made from the present installation, little in the way of anything except small pipe and laying will be required.
By high pressure the gas is pumped in the works to any desired pressure from five pounds to thirty pounds and dis- tributed by means of suitable governors which reduce it to the usual house pressure.
The consumption has been as follows :
August, 39,400 cubic feet, .
$66 98
September,
98,700
.
167 79
October, 74,900

December,

56 10
January, 1905, 48,400 329,800
· $560 66
As noticed the consumption of gas in January is greater than in August of last year, this shows more used for light and heat.
During the cold weather, when there have been several interruptions on the low pressure system, not a single one has occurred on the high pressure.
The gas is dry, is of good candle power and gives general satisfaction.
The mains were laid on the following streets :
