In fact, the difference between a real cash in come and an actual financial loss from the operation of countless farms is de termined by the extent to which elec tricity is put to work on farm jobs. Electrical "hired hands” have proved that they can and do produce greater profits. As in the farm home, adequate wir ing of all farm buildings is essential to the profitable and enjoyable use of electricity. Also, like the rooms in the home, each building should be amply lighted and provided with a sufficient number of convenience out lets and suitable switches. Among the electrical “servants” for the dairy bam are milking machines, drinking cups, ventilating fans, ani mal groomers, fly traps and hay hoists. An ensilage cutter, operated by a portable motor, will fill the silo in short order. In the milk house, an electric cream separator and chum eliminate much drudgery. The combination of an elec tric milk cooler, water heater, uten sil sterilizer and fly screens will help keep the bacterial count of the milk so low that It will command a premium in many localities. Poultry houses not only require or dinary lights to increase winter egg profits by lengthening the working day for the hens but also ultra-violet lights to keep them healthy aed strong. An electric brooder, Incu bator, water warmer and burglar alarm add to the profit and surety of poultry raising. Many granaries and bams are equipped with a feed grinder and mixer, grain elevator, hay chopper, com shell er and other machinery, all operated by a portable motor. Some farmer* also thresh their own grain, using a portable motor to drive the separator. A well-equipped machine shop will save money on any farm. An electric drill press or portable drill, lathe, Th# high line to Mm life IlM of aomo 1,300,000 Amort eon form#. grindstone, forge, air compressor, bat tery charger, soldering iron and glue pot are among the Items that should be included. Every farm should have an auto matic electric water system to provide an ample supply of fresh water for the livestock and for sanitary pur poses in the various buildings. Also, each should have an adequate system of yard lighting to prevent thievery as well as for ease and safety in going from one building to another after dark. The foregoing are only a few of the numerous uses of electrical equipment in general farming. There are many specialized applications — fruit wash ing and grading, soil sterilization, soil heating, cold storage, and wood saw ing, to name but a few. On every farm, the electric “hired hands" can be made to more then pay their way in in creased profits and lessened manual labor. r MIDDLE FORK Rev. Luther Bryant, of Easley, S.
