ELECTRICITY Oil FARM MAKES WORK EASY Hand Is One Which Never Over sleeps in Morning; Is Economical The American farmer is hiring a new farmhand —one who never over sleeps in the morning, who never borrows the best buggy to take his girl riding in, who never grumbles at the food nor eats the boss out of house and home. This new farmhand is the electric motor. That the farmer is hiring this new band in large numbers is shown by the fact that one power company in California has 7,000 farmers on its lines, another 4,000; while in Color ado. Kansas. Washington. Oregon and t'tah thousands of farmers are pa trons of the electric companies. In the Central States—especially in Illi nois, lowa. Indiana. Wisconsin, and Minnesota—the farmer has become a large user of electricity for both light and power. What has brought this about in this way? First, the steady increase in farm ■wages, estimated at 35 per cent, in the last twenty years. Second, the discovery that one-third To Keep Skin in Fine Condition All Summer It would be much better for the skin if little cream, powder or rouge were used during the heated term. Mixed with perspiration, dust and grime, these things are anything but beautify ing. Ordinary mercollaed wax will do more for the complexion, and without giving an oily, streaked, spotted or pasty appearance. It is tile ideal ap plication for the season, as it not onlv k»eps the pores clean, but dally re moves particles of scarf skin which have been soiled by dirt or weather. By constantly keeping the complexion clear, white, satiny, it does more toward perpetuating a youthful counte nance than any of the arts or artifices commonly employed. One ounce of mercolized wax. obtainable at anv drug store, will completely renovate the , worst complexion. It is appli.-d at night like cold cream and washed off ' in the morning. To keep the skin from sagging oi 1 wrinkling, or to overcome surti condl- ! tion. there's nothing better than a face ! bath made by dissolving I ounce puw- ! dered saxolite in VS pint witch hazel.— Advertisement. TUESDAY EVENING, of our immense grain and hay crops ts used as food for horses, who must eat 365 days a year, and who work only three hours a day on the average. I Third, the fact that while within I the last twenty years farm wages have increased 35 per cent, and the cost of living has increased 30 per (cent., the cost of electricity has de creased 88 per cent. Fourth, the discovery that there are no less than 125 different farm operations in which electricity can be used. To begin with, there is the lighting. Tlie C«»st or Electric Lights Electricity furnishes the safest, cleanest, and most effective and con venient system of lighting the farm home, outbuildings, and barnyard. Many a farmer is using it for such purpose, two plans being followed: either he builds the transmission line himself and presents or leases it to the power company, paying the same rate as city users, or he induces the power company to extend its lines to | the country and add the cost, in an | nual instalments, to the price charged the farmer users. The average cost I for wiring and installing lamps runs •about $2 an outlet, which is extreme | ly low, considering the service. | But there are many other uses be sides Illumination to which electricity I can be put in the farm home. Here | Is a partial list of the most common: I II will operate the washing machine, electric iron, water pump, electric j fan, sewing machine, meat grinder, i bread mixer, refrigerating machine, j buffer and grinder, and so on. The ' complete list would be a long one. Few of these are prohibitive be cause of the cost. The motor for the water pump usu- I ally ranges in size from *4 to 1 horse ! power, the average being The power cost ranges from 2 '/& to 10 ; cents an hour. A 6-pound electric i iron uses from 4 to 6 cents' worth of electricity an hour. For convenience, I one motor can be used to run the i washing machine, cream separator, 'pump, churn, meat grinder, Ice cream | freezer, vegetable, peeler, and bread j mixer. I An electrlcai expert has figured out I the amount of household work that can be done with one cent's worth of electricity, at 10 cents per kilowatt hour. Here is the showii.g: | It will operate a 6-pound flatiron fifteen minutes. It will drive an electric vacuum I cleaner long enough to clean 450 square feet of carpet. It will lift 100 gallons of water 100 feet. It will run a sewing machine two hours. It will run a 12-inch electric fanl two hours. It will run a buffer and grinder! one and one-fourth hours. Rut the thrifty farmer is not much of a hand to buy things only for the j To Women Who Overdo Thousands of American women In our homes are dally sacrificing their lives to duty. In order to keep the home neat and attractive, the chil dren well dressed and tidy, women overdo. Soon a weakness or dis placement is brought on and they suf fer in silence, drifting along from bad to worse. FAr forty years Lydia | E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has proved a boon and a blessing to women in this condition, by restoring their systems to a normal healthy con dition. Why don't you try it?— A dvertisement. j home; he wants to see uses for them I elsewhere. There are twenty uses to which elec tricity can be put in the dairy, the most important being to operate cream separators. churns, water pumps, milking machines, refrigerat ing machines, milk clarifiers, Pas teurizers. and milk-circulating pumps. The electric motor is especially val uable for a cream separator, as its use insures a constant speed and a stand ard test of cream. Nor is it prohibi tive in cost. Tests have shown that the cost to a farmer who separates 300 pounds of milk a day is 2.2 cents per hundred pounds when done by electricity, and 4.1 cents per hundred pounds when done by hand, a saving of practically 2 cents per hundred pounds for the electric-driven sepa rator. The advantage holds good with other appliances. The size of motor used for driving churns ranges from % to 3 horsepower. The complete cost averages about one cent for every 10 pounds of but ter churned and worked. The situation in regard to the milk ing machine is most interesting. Tests made on an 8-machine milking equip ment, driven by a 3-horsepower mo tor, indicate that the power cost is about 2 mills to the cow, with elec tricity at 10 cents a kilowatt hour. The complete equipment cost S9OO, and with it from 90 to 100 cows are milked twice a day. The dairyman who made the tests asserts that the saving in labor cost in eleven months paid for the equip ment. Eleven men were formerly re quired, but with the aid of the milker the work is now done by five. The advantage of the' electrically driven milking machine is that one man can tend to two machines, which will milk about 22 cows an hour. The average farmhand will milk about six cows an hour. The labor and power for the 2-machine equipment is .97 cents per cow, for the 6-machine, .87 cents, compared with 2.5 cents per cow for hand milking. There are over thirty applications of electric drive in the barn and field, among the most important being water pumps, feed grinders, corn shellers, ensilage cutters, grain eleva tors. concrete mixers, grain threshers, grain graders, bone grinders, hay hoists, hay balers, and clover hullers. Feed grinders require motors rang ing from 3 to 10 horsepower, the larger ones from 10 to 30 horsepower. A farmer who has 600 bushels of corn to grind in a year, and who lives 3 V 4 miles from town, will find his electric grinding costing him 9\ cents a bushel. The cost at the mill in town is 8 cents, an advantage in favor of the town mill of 1 % cents a bushel. However, this is assuming that the motor is used exclusively for this one operation. But if only one-half of the motor's time were chargeable to this operation, the charge for power would be cut in two and the total cost for the home grinding would be 7.09 cents, a difference of .91 cents a bushel in favor of the electric-driven home grinder. Personal Danger Is Lessened In driving ensilage cutters, husk ers, shredders, threshing machines, and clover hullers by means of elec tric motors, there Is obtained the ad ditional advantage of a uniform op erating speed. Another important consideration is that the element of personal danger is eliminated. With the switch within ready grasp of the operator ( the power can he shut off instantly at the first sign of danger.
