THE PASSING OF HAND LABOR

Modern business, or rather the
manufacturing business, has long re-
allied that volume of business and
profit depend to a great extent upon
saving J wherever possible, and
with WITHIN q I labor 5rp where a'n machine
can perform the wrok better and more
quickly.
The same change is placing farming
upon a better business. basis. For
years, of course, field work has been
done largely by machinery Otherwise
Americas tremendous agricultural
production would have been impossi'
BILE. And now this same increase in
operating efficiency is spreading to
the doing of the lesser work on the
farm. Chores have been burden,
They have faced the farmer or his boy
| twice a day, once before and once
after a regular days work. They have
meant grinding drudgery. And their
worst feature has been that they had
to be done almost exclusively by
hand.
With the coming of electricity to the
farm through the medium of the farm
electric light and power plant, this
condition has been greatly changed.
Thousands of farms in America are to-
day entirely free Of the tiresome part
of chore work. Before dawn in the
morning there is plenty of bright cleo
ltric light in the barns while the milk
ing is going on. And the milking itself
is done not by hand, slowly and labor
iously as before, but by small cleo
Itric motor. One man can easily do the
work that took two or three before
The separating and the churning are
done in the same way. And so with a
grindstone, the corn shelter, the ian
ming mill and other light farm machln'
lery, Where two men worked before
one of them always turning the crank,
now one man feeds the machine-boss
the iob-and the electric motor does
the work. And pumping, one OF the
biggest Jobs on the farm is now done
by an electric pump that is entirety
automatic.
In the house the same labor saving
lis seen, only in this case it is the farm
women who benifit. Wash day is now
a thing Of electric machines and irons
Instead of the old fashion of bending
lover a tub all day. Sweepingris done
better and quicker with electricity,
This is surely the age of efficiency
Hand labor is passing in the countr!
las it has in the city.
