FEA Pushes End to Decorative Gas Lamps
The Federal Energy Administration urges voluntary end to decorative lawn gas lamps. Delbert M. Fowler of Dallas notes a lamp burns 18,000 cubic feet of natural gas yearly, more energy than hot water for six months, and that a 60 watt bulb for a day uses less fuel energy. About four million decorative gas lamps exist nationwide.
