antifieeze solutions added f o the
coaling system, others will need
diamed oi placed in warm plac
es All farm machinery needs
piotection fiom rain and snow;
moisture causes rust which is the
mam enemy of most equipment
With the high cost of farm ma
chinery it is good management to

FLEXIBLE
IS
ELECTRIC
HEAT!
"Go anywhere’'
electric heat is most
flexible because there
are five different
types to solve any
heating problem.
Some such as
baseboard or ceiling
cable, need no central
furnace, it’s the
easiest to install in
“add-on" rooms, and
it needs no exhaust
system. Call PP&L
