  • Abstract
    THE USE of electricity for house heating is not new. As early as 1914, homes in the Northwest were being heated by electricity. It is estimated that by 1920 there were over 2,000 homes in Tacoma, Wash., using this means of heat. For a few years prior to the war, the use of electric heating spread rather rapidly on the west coast, particularly in central California.
