IL you're bothered by night insects,
try using the new yellow enameled
bulbs for outdoor lighting. These new
bulbs are ideal for pOrches, over pie
ME tables, dOorways and gardens,
where you want to discourage night
flying insects.
There's no magic in the yellow
bulb, but according to lighting spe-
cialists insect pests are less attracted
TO a yellow lamp than to a white bulb
of equal waitage. Available in both
90 and l00.wati sizes, The bulbs have
glass coating which is fixed" on the
bulb so il won't wear or wash of.

Electricity Takes
OyerFarmChOres

The production line system, city
factory development and, for many
years, the exclusive property OF big
time industry, has moved into the
farm area.
Livestock on many farms today eat
feed which the farmer seldom if ever
touches after it is brought in from
the fields. A simple system OF cleo
trically-operated wagon hoists, grind
ers, shelters, feed mixers, elevators
and blowers connected to the over
head storage bins by gravity flow
chuies put grain handling operations
on practically an automatic basis:
How is il done? just this way: Ear
corn, for instance, is trucked to the
granary where the front end OF the
vehicle is raised. allowing the corn
to drop into a floor dump elevator
which raises il to overhead bins.
Gravity flow chuies carry the grain
to various blOw.equipped machines,
set up in sequence, which process the
feed and direct il, in many instances,
straight to the feed lot.
