nois farm can be taken as a guide, the
thfeshing Of wheat and oats by cleo
tr4city offers attractive possibilities
for economy. Two yoang farmers
near Bloomington, Ill, DeLoss and
Eugene Funk, have demonstrated to
their own satisfaction that electrical
threshing is so per cent less costly
than steam threshing, in the case OF
oats, and less than haR as expensive
for wheat.
They gave both methods a thor
ough trial, and In addition also ex-
perimented with a gasoline tractor
Their figures, however, compare steam
and electricity.
The cost OF their steam equipment
amounted to $4,772, with operating
costs Of $1.577, total of $6;S49. The
cost of the electrical equipment came
to $2,260, and the operating costs
were $685., or total Of $2915.
The same amount of work was per-
formed by each method-sixty thou

OPTIMISM EXPRESSED
BY SEC. W. M. JARDINE
Government Agricultural Officer
Feels Sure Rural Electric Prob
lem viii Be Mastered.

Secretary Of Agriculture w. M. Jar
dine is confident that the right steps
are being taken to discover the key
to the farm electrifcation question.
He feels certain that a satisfactory
solution of the matter will be finally
arrived at.
Secretary Jardine has expressed his
views in a letter to the electric utili-
ties of Nebraska, in which he sum.
marizes the problem and declares 1t to
be an undeniable truth that the farm
er would find himself better off in
every way If he could make liberal use
OF electric power.
'The farmer needs electrical DOW.
err" said Mr. Jardine, "both because
of the added pleasures it's use brings
to farm life and also because of its
economic value to the agricultural in
dustry. The use of electrical energy
not only makes a more efficient appli-
cation Of power possible in many
cases, but it opens up an extensive
field of new uses for power application
for which other types Of power are
not adapted.
Agriculture has benefited from the
use of power as well as other indus
tries, but unfortunately it is handt-
capped in the efficient application of
IT'S power due to the diversity of the
operations, the small size OF the power
unit usually in the hands OF one oper-
ator and the seasonal demands for the
power in proportion to the quantity
OF work to be done. This situation
has resulted in relatively high cost
per unit OF power utilized, and 1t
would appear as though the adoption
OF electrical distribution OF power
might reduce this cost in many cases
II an economical method Of rural cleo
IRRIGATION can be developed.
"The utilization of electrical energy
for curing foods and field crops, com
batting insect pests and for the stimu.
lation of plant and animal growth,
while not as yet fully understood,
would appear to have considerable
possibilities that may also in time
prove of great aid to agriculture.
While undoubtedly the rural cleo.
IRRIGATION problem is such that it will
require serious thought and extensive
research before it's final solution can
be obtained, l believe that the right
steps are now being taken to reach
this solution and that the cleo.

look forward to this field as one that

their industry in the future"
