A traveler through the country
today notices one thing more than
any. other and that is the num'jor
of farms where electric service u
now used. And none the less true
is this in Cass county.

ment has been put in within the lastl
turer alone announces "oyer seventy
five thousand satisfled .iisers,' a sur
prising fact, in view of the farmer's
well-known tendency to make a Ions
and thorough investigation before h?
buys anything in the way of farm
equipment.
What, then, is the reason for this
rapid increase in the rural use of
electricity? Simply this, that elec
tricity has proved to be wonderfully
useful on the farm. Much more so,
in fact, than in city homes.
Electric light is not only super
ior to all others as a light, but is
much more convenient, much safer,
and, in farm usage, saves a great
amount of time. The difference be
tween turning a switch at the house
and lighting a lantern has already
been mentioned and -this greater con
venience is found throughout. Up
stairs lights can be switched on from
the lower hall, and even the barn
may be lighted from the house.
This convenience effects a great
saving of time. The daily cleaning
and filling of lamps is no longer
necessary. There is no walking
from the barn to the house to get a
lantern. And in the barn itself, it
is found that the well-placed elec
tric lights make every movement
surer and faster, saving nearly half
the time it used to take to do the
chores.
Electric light is safer, too, par
ticularly in the barn, where the
hazard of fire from an overturned
lantern was formerly very great.
But electric power on the farm Is
even more useful than electric light.
An automatic water system will
pump every drop of water formerly
pumped by hand, supplying water
under pressure at faucets all over
tlie tou and barns

Where the plant has been proper
ly designed and made the owner is
assured of satisfactory service. And
he's not slow to tell his neighbors
about the kind of satisfaction he's
getting. The result is that when
