Electric Milking Machines can cut milking time as
much as 50 to 607,. The gentle, soothing action of
electric milkers often increases milk yield as much
as 10%.
Brooding, feeding, watering, incubating, lighting,
caponizing, debeaking, plucking and egg candling
and cleaning are a few of the many profitable ap=
Eo. plications of electricity on the poultry farm.

For better farm
LET
“Letting Reddy do it” is a profitable,
tO & labor-saving habit for your family to
develop. habit that will improve both
your farming and farm living. Today, with
electricity, many farm and homemaking chores
that once were long laborious and almost
endless tasks are now done with the flick of
a switch.
VV Gone is time-wasting, tiresome hand-
pumping and never-ending water carry-
ing. Automatic, electric water-pumping
systems and electric water heaters make abun-
dant water and sanitation no problem at all.
Automatic electric milkers cut milking time
to a fraction. Barn gutters are cleaned
automatically. Back-breaking hay pitching’
is replaced by electric hoists and elevators.
Corn is moved in by a handy electric conveyor
system. Poultry is fed and watered auto-
matically. Infra-red lamps warm the pig
brooding pen without worry over a murderous
sow. These barely scratch the surface of the
variety of jobs that electricity can erase from
your work list!
