is PROLONGING LIFE
Women on Farm of the Future
May Find Electricity Adding
to Their Years.

Several men who are leaders in the
farm electrification movement have
expressed their belief that the farmer
appreciates fully the humanitarian
aspect of electric power on the farm,
over and above its value to him in dol
lars and cents.
DR.. e. A. Stewart, of the University
of Minnesota. declares chat farmers
will have electricity in order to make
life convenient and happy. irrespec-
tive of whether or not they are always
able to make their electrical i~nstalla-
ton show a dollars and cents profit.
simultaneously, M. II. Aylesworth,
executive manager Of the National
Electric Light Association, asserts his
conviction that electricity will add
from fifteen to twenty years to the
lives of farm women and win in many
cases change misery into happiness.
Water in the home. pumped by
electricity. the electric iron. the cleo
trio washing machine. the
cleaner, electric range, refrigerator,
percolator-all these things are up-
known to farmers wives and daugh-
ters. Electricity will bring them. And
they will be happiness-makers. al
though not a bit more important than
the advantage of electric lights"

LIGHT FOR HENS
is RATED HIGH
After Ten-Year Study OF Subject
Cornell University Endorses
Idea With Enthusiasm
POSSIBLE VALUE is GREAT

Prof. James E. Rice, head OF the
poultry department at Cornell Univer-
sity. sums up the result of a ten year
investigation of artificial illumination
in hen houses in these words:
II would no more think OF undertake
ing to handle poultry in this latitude
without artificial light than l would
undertake to keep house without this
modern convenience"
Basing his views on many expert
ments and a thorough practical analy-
sis of the subject, Prof. Rice added
that he did not sympathize with the
view that artificial illumination injur.
ed the birds by producing an unnat-
ural condition. wv are firmly con.
vinced." he said, that an exceedingly
important factor in overcoming the
unnatural conditions to which fowls
are subjected during our short late fall
and winter days is the practice of
frightening the days by artificial light.
Proper Use Essential
This has proved remarkably efec-
tive in causing an increase in egg pro-
duction during fall and winter-which
is the best possible reason why this
potent ally of the winter egg producer
should be used with caution and in &C
cordance with the physical condition
of the fowls"
Careful inquiry into methods on
farms where artificial illumination has
not proved satisfactory has convinced
Cornell University poultry authorities
that in these cases the lights have not
been properly used. 1t is declared
that the most important single factor
in the matter is that of holding the
rate of production within the hens
natural laying capacity.
Reasons for Failures
Prof. Rice says that experience
proves ~conciusively how easy it is tc
hold the percentage of egg production
within certain limits for an indefinite
period by the proper use Of lights
which increase or decrease the hens
working day. But some poultrymen
finding it possible to boost their egg
yield from so to 10 per cent. give thei1

ing day. and thereby invariably put
the birds out of condition. This prac-
tice, Prof Rice declares, is the prin.
cipal reason for dissatisfaction with
the use of lights to increase egg pro-
duction.
The type OF lighting unit which his
experiments found the most effective
is a standard 40-watt Mazda lamp with
a c~one-shaped reflector sixteen inches
in diameter at the base by four inches
high and hung six feet from the floor.
This gives light for the perches as
well as the floor. and so prevents any
of the hens from remaining on the
roost when it is desired to have them
scratching for feed.

Farmers Value to Nation
To some this movement away from
the farm is an alarming symptom.
Yet as a nation We are not so much
concerned with the specific number
Of people living on farms as we are
with the volume of food production,
INT government figures show that this
is being maintained.
In no small degree our commercial
development of the past se~venty-five
years has been made possible by in
creased efficiency in food production
on he part Of the farmer. Power and
power uses are well established on
the farm. Today the American farm
er uses power, lots of it. and he will
undoubtedly use an increasing amount
in the future. Rural progress depends
in no small measure upon this.
Power Now "the" Thing
In view of what the use of power on
the farm has already accomplished, It
is no wonder that the farmer is look

cultural possibilities are to be unlock

making available to rural districts
practically every convenience now en-

living conditions in the cities. and ag-

Vision, Courage, Study Are Needed
To secure maximum results with
minimum costs. in working out appli-
cations of electricity to agriculture,
vision, courage and determination to
succeed are essential. The power
problems of the farm must be ~investi-
gated by the best talent available. and
the application of electricity to this
field must be developed along sound
economic and engineering lines.
Electricity has already done so
much for our urban population that
maximum rural development without
electric service is unthinkable. We

And back of this lies the hope that It

Farm life has been changing in
many respects during the past twenty
fve years. Rural isolation is gone for
ever. Daily mail delivery. the tele-
