Here's light for your home, farm buildings and yard. Here's
po ver for your electric carpet sweeper, sewing machine, r hum
am 1 fan; heat for your electric iron and toaster.
PRICE IS LOW!
Yi m'll be surprised when we tell you how low is ihe i rice of
the complete plant. If you have your own engine it is even
less.
The cost of operation is moderate. The plant is easily in
stalled. Ready for operation when taken out of the crate. The
Alamo is the ideal farm light plant simplest, safest end best
takes up but little space.
Since the perfec'ion of the tungsten lamp, which requires
only one- third the electricity to produce the same light as the
old carbo n lamp, large storage batteries are not necessary.
Thereby tlie cost of a light plant is so reduced that it is within
the means of the average farmer.
The ide al plant for the farm is the Alama Electric Farm
Light Plant. We were the first to introduce the small lijrkt plant
into the cour. try homes, and our present improved product is the
result of eigh years of successful manufacture. The plant is the
simplest, safes t and best, and it takes up but little space. Kery
farmer should have one, not only to liyrht his building, but to
furnish power L r his wife's churning, sewing, etc.
The price of the standard plant is SlTt.J.iM, so you see it is an
attractive propo- i'-ion for the farmer. If you do not already have
an engine of 2 11. P. or more, we can furnish it for o:i for .i'l'i.o i
