The assing of Hand Labor

Modern business, or rather the
manufacturing business, has long
realized that volume of business and
proht depend to a great extent upon
saving labor wherever possible. and
particularly upon replacing hand labor
with machine labor Whe;c a machine
can perform the work better and more
quickly.
The same change placing farming
upon better business basis. For
years, OF course, field work has been
done largely by machinery. Other
wise Americas tremendous aericul-
tural production would have bee, i'm
possible. And now this same increase
in operating efficiency is spreading to
the doing of the lesser work on the
farm. Chores have always been a
burden. They have faced the farm
er or his boy twice a day, once before
and once after the regular days work.
They have meant grinding durdgery.
And their worst feature has been
that they had to be done almost ex
clusively by hand.
With the coming Of electricity to the
farm through the medium Of the farm
electric light and power plant this con-
ditlon has been greatly changed.
Thousands Of farms in America are
