The Virginia Electric and Power Company instructors at Hertford indi cated the belief that the use of elec tricity on the farm was just begin ning. They said that experts believe the use of electricity on the farm will better than double within the next ten years. Mr. Elliott said, "with the use of electricity on farms increasing so rapily, the vocational agriculture teacher will no doubt be faced with many problems in extending its use to include more and more farm opera tions. These rural electrification work shops should enable the teacher to help the farmer in solving these prob lems."

The workshop last year pertained largely to the use of electricity in the farm home and a certain amount of actual repair work was done by the teachers. . WINFALL NEWS Mr. and Mrs. B. F.
