Electricity— Everybody's
Servant
A few years ago electricity was the
servant of the few who lived in cities.
This was because electric generating
machinery was not its present im-
proved state, and because it was, and
still is for that matter, very expensive
to transmit electric current over long
distances. In other words people who
live close together in the comparative-
ly small area of the city can all be sup -
piled with currentfrom the one cent-
ral station at a reasonable coat, where-
as it is enormously expensive to ex-
tend transmission lines five or ten
miles into the country in order to
serve perhaps 15 or 20 customer in an
area as large as that covered by the
city. And yet the services of elec-
tricity are needed as much, if not
more, on the farm, in the country
house, church, school house and store,
as in the city.
It is this need and the practical dif-
ficulties in the way of eupplying it,
which turned men's inventive genius
toward a solution of the problem,
And the solution, as in the case of
1510Sb great problems, was in itself
rather simple,—not the building of
new and complicated machinery to
drive current further at a lower cost.
but the application of the known
principles of generating and handling
electriccurrent to the development
of small generating plants of a size
suitable for supplying 'electricity on
the farm and in the church or store,
and ata cost easily within the reach
of every progreeeive farmer. Years of
experimental work by some of our
best engineers have produced planta
of this type which are thoroughly de-
pendable.
Now the result of One is that elec-
trielty is at last the really universal
servant. In the Country home,

RIGHT FOR US
(Farmer'! Sets)
Away back in 1911 when some of
the people thqueht that bila country
sheuld negotiate a Reciprocity pact
' with the United States, our banks acid
manufacturers, transportation compan-
ies and other Vested Interests, shouted
"info truck or trade with the Yankees"
and by means of waving the flag and
appealing to racial prejudices, brought
about the defeat of the measure. The
hanks were especially active in point.
Eng out .the disloyalty of selling a
load of turnips or a fat steer to the
Americans. A farmer who did these
things was disloyal, .,a tailor to his
country, and was not seeking annex-
ation to the United States,
The banks led us to believe that it
was quite allright for them to lend
money to finance the American cotton
crop, to help the Cuban sugar planter
grow more Sugar, or even to go down
into Mexico to build power plants
and rue risks with the revolutionists
of that country. Brazil and Spain were
regarded as exceellent places to invest
funds, In other words It was quite
all right for the banks to deal with the
United States or other foreign coup.
tries
but it is all wrong for a farmer
to have any intercourse e
with his neigh-
bors. bors.
In the last Bank Statement, issued
by the Government, it is shown that
our banks, which literally yelled their
heads off in 1911, have call loans
(short term loans) in the United
States, of $188,367,459. Current
loans in the United States and other
foreign countries, are in excess of
$265,000,000. Thus the banks who
protested the loudest against having
any "truck or trade with tbe Yankees"
have themselves at the present time
$453,000,000 working outside of this
country, This money could very web
be employed here In stimulating
trade,
'Could anything be more inconsistent
than the policy of our banks and Big
Interests generally? Can anything be
more foolish than our willingness to be
hood -winked and fooled by the loyalty
cry of these Vested Interests? We
wonder how long the people of this
country will submit to that kind of
propaganda?
