Mrs. Farmer

How many times each,year do youneed a hired girl
when you cannot get. one? Did you ever stop to
thing that there were other means of helping: Light
en- your work?
How much would it mean to you to be rid OF the
bother and dirt of kerosene lamps and lanterns? To
have an electric iron, to iron with: instead of stand
ing near a red hot stove or running back and forth
after fresh irons? To have a motor to run your
washing machine without the noise, fuss, dirt and
danger of handling a gasoline engine? Or per-
haps you do not have an engine. To have the same
motor run the churn and cream separator for you
instead of wearing yourself out running them?
DO YOU REALLY WONDER that you cannot get
a hired girl to work under the present average con-
ditions when she will see the hired man using all
the modern machinery and other conveniences while
she must still do all her homework under the old
armstrong; methods?
How many hired men of today are walking in the
field, pumping water for the stock by hand, running
the tanning mill by hand, or doing without any of
the modern conveniences? How many hired girls
do you know who do not run the washing machine,
churn and cream separator by hand?
A DELCO LIGHT PLANT will do all these things
for you much cheaper and more satisfactory in ev-
ery way than a hired girl can do them and when
you must have help your girl will have the same
chance your husbands hired man has:
I do all kinds of electrical work, house" wiring; etc.,
both in town and country.
