Electrically operated Water Supply System for Farm USE

m this matter has just come to notice.
This farmer, who is also a local bank
er, was raising beef cattle.
He made tests on the relation OF
water to the weight of his stock
and noted that his cattle drank
more water when it was pumped fresh
from the ground for them, than when
they drank water that had stood long
in the tank.
Following a study of the matter,
he and neighboring farmer put in an
electric power line for their farms, ex-
pending together about $1,100. After
a years operation, from that particu-
lar station, 81 carloads of cattle were
shipped. Seven Of these carloads
were from three farms-a farm with
q spring and the two farms equipped
with electricity.
Difference Due to Water
The cattle in those seven carloads
were the only cattle out of the entire
81 carloads that brought top prices
on the market. Moreover, the aver
age weight Of the cattle in those seven
cars was So pounds per head greater
than the average weight Of the cattle
In the other cars. The banker-farmer
attributed this entirely to his facilities
for giving the cattle an adequate sup
ply Of fresh water at ground tempera-
ture, and he estimated that in this
year alone he made approximately
$40O on his investment.

Make Fresh Water Possible,
and Iowa Man Finds cattIe's
Weight Gains Accordingly.

It has been established conclusively,
IN the practice of successful farming,
that fresh water, as distinguished
from standing water, means better
livestock. And it has now been es-
tablished, in addition, that an cleo
trically operated pumping system on
the farm is so efficient in providing a
supply Of fresh, running water, that
1t is comparable with that finest of
all water supplies-a natural spring.
