These are busy days on the eighteen
farms lying five miles out from Red
Wing, Mimi, where a rural electric
transmission line has been put into

deal of special apparatus for use on
these farms by electric energy has ar
rived and beer put into service.
The current on the trial line was
turned on for the first time on Christ
mas eve. At that time, however. the
installation and wiring on the differ
ent farms provided only for electric
lights. No farm equipment for cleo
trical operation was installed until
March 10.
Equipment Arriving Daily
During March and April, however,
almost every train brought some new
piece of equipment into Red Wing.
and these utensils were installed as
rapidly as possible.
The joint committee which is con.
Quoting this experiment consists OF
four farmers, two power company
representatives and the dean of the
Minnesota College of Agriculture. The
chairman is James f. Reed, president
of the Minnesota Farm Bureau FEEDER.
alton n vice president of the Amer
lean Farm Bureau Federation.

ment and Of farm machinery are

eyes. Some Of the biggest of these
companies are cooperating by furnish
ing equipment; others are taking note
Of the progress and method Of pro-
cedure. The General Electric Com
pany sent n Of its engineers all the
way from its headquarters at Sche-
nectady. N. Y, to inspect the trial line
and observe all that is being done.

the farm home Of Mr.. and Mrs, Ray
Montanye of South Delton to the
ground and Mrs. Montayne and chill
dren narrowly escaped being burned
to death. Mr.. Montanye was at the
barn and the other members of the

only in their night clothes, but the
first floor furniture was nearly all
saved. The house was insured.
The Montanye home was located
some six miles northwest of Baraboo.

KELLEY SCORES
DAIRY METHODS

"If ST. Patrick came to Wisconsin
and saw the manner in which dairy
men have, surrendered the field to
substitutes he would drive out the
lipstick and powder puff and teach
the dairymen and their daughters that
real beauty is established by the
health route in using milk and cream
declared John NJ Kelley, speaking
before the Rock County Agricultural
association at Evansville Monday
night.
est Patrick drove the snakes from
Ireland because they inter red most
with the pursuit of peaceful people.
If st. Patrick came to Wisconsin he
would drive substitutes from the
field. Dairymen by contributing one
tenth Of per cent quart for organ
ization and advertising would make an
annual fund of $5,000,000."
Mr. Kelley declared that every year
he has to revise his figures on Wis
consin's tremendous dairy output.
While two years ago, he said, $1,000
600 in dairy products was produced in
this state every thirty-six hours, to,
day $1,0O0,0OO yield is produced every
