INCREASED PRODUCTION Better lighting can help increase production on your farm. For example, proper lighting in the poultry house can give you top egg production all winter long. In addition, many repair jobs and other tasks can be done after dark, giving you extra daytime hours for profit-building chores. GREATER SAFETY One of the best forms of insurance against injury is having plenty of light wherever you need it. Interiors of farm buildings should have sufficient light, evenly distributed. Well-lighted walkways outdoors lessen nighttime dangers. CONVENIENCE AND PROTECTION Darkness never comes to the farmer having a few properly placed electric lights. With flood and spot lights outdoors, and flourescent and other lamp bulbs for indoors, there’s a right lamp for each job. Lamps to. ease eyestrain and make nighttime chores easier! Lamps for lighting poultry ranges to keep foxes and ' other wild animals from raiding your flock. Ask your PP&L farm representative or farm equip ment dealer to help plan your farm lighting. - Do it now before winter arrives. From sundown to sunup, good lighting makes farming safer, pleasanter, anr more efficient. r i 1 f , f " i )fK , vjj * /, , -r ■ 1 ! m, 'I-’lkU; Tmionium Grand Champion WHEAT BANK Wheat farmers in 36 states We think we’re smart people, have placed 10,670,773 acres of but it took half a century for winter wheat in the soil bank salesmen to learn not to ask the through Nov. 2, the USDA re- women customer what size shoe, ports.
