Applying Electric Energy
To Farm Projects
Blackwell Holdings Latest to
Use Wire and Discard Gasoline

For years Mr.. Blackwell stuck to
dry farming, but this season there
was even too much dry atmosphere
for this successful farmer to trust to
nature. The two dry winters were
disastrous even to his methods.
With the Blackwell and the Wills
Brougher farms under the electric
current and others plodding away in
the same line, lot of good has re-
suited. 1t will mean that others in
this section, who now own sagebrush
land will be busy on reclamation that
is past the experimental stage. 1t
has all come from the electric energy
as the gasoline engine and pump
have proven luxuries and a source of
all kinds of trouble. Every party
who installed the engines has taken
the machine out to make room for
the electric energy, which goes when
the switch is turned on.
A crew of electricians is on the
Blackwell job and within short time
the wheels will be turning on his
farm, and the green grass growing
all around

Sort of fine girl, Hi and 1 thought
her, and that's why we sent her to
college. Sam Bum, the plumber, was
sweet on her, and Hi and hoped they

for they didn't have plumbing in them

her father. Have you got a. touch

means that she was going to help us
old folks out with the chores. There
was a whole heap of cleaning to be
done, and it always took my strength

mean that at all. What she meant
was being artistic.

that Higginbotham woman, and next
day she broke the news to us that
they'd rented the old Hops place for
