Questions and suggestions ' regarding electricity, your electric service, or energy conservation are welcome.- - Does a microwave oven use less electricity than a conven tional electric oven? a There is no simple answer here. n An electricity consumption comparison com-parison between the conventional and microwave ovens depends entirely on the answer to the question, "What's cooking?" Tests have shown that in . cooking small to medium quantities of concentrated foods such as meats, potatoes, desserts (particularly puddings and sauces), and in heating TV dinners, ' the microwave oven offers the greatest savings. Yet, when cooking corn, broccoli, and similar vegetables, the conventional electric surface units are more economical. Energy-saving is greatest when using the microwave and the conventional ovens in combination, rather than one method at the exclusion exclu-sion of another. .,.-.. - .; " . . .-. Q'. Where should I put my study lamp for the greatest amount of light from the least wattage? A Study lamps should be placed so as to avoid shadows and reflected re-flected glare and, normally, a 150-watt bulb is recommended for reading. On a desk, ideal placement is approximately approxi-mately 12 inches from the front of the desk, 15 inches to the right or left : of center (to the left if you are right-handed, right-handed, to the right if you are left-handed), left-handed), with the bottom shade 15 inches from the desk surface.

Reddy recommends that you look on the carton for both lumen ratings and estimated life of the bulb (in hours). Address your questions or suggestions to Reddy Kilowatt, P.O.
