f. (’ori.n you produce one-third more crops with 10%
| lex* manpower? The farmers of America did it dur-
| injr the 'last full year of th" war.
| How? Partly by working themselves and their ma-
i rhino*5 longer, harder. Partly by assisting' hired help
\ v. ith teirt d help.
Electricity has taken over more and more farm
j chores. It pumps v.titer, grinds feed, dries grain, tills
' silos, ft steps up milk and egg and beef production,
j It eases farm housework, too.

| Who electrified the farms? Rural elects ic service
j didn't happen overnight. It started more than 25
I y»ars ago- with America’s hrxhu■ .is-managed electric
• companies. These companies did the pioneering—the
\ piek-and-'hovei work.
The advantages of electricily on the farm were
| many. The problem was to get it to the farmer, Dis-
j tance and weather called for e-evv methods and ma-
5 lerials. New farm machines suitable for electric drive
| had to tie developed.
| Each problem was Sicked in turn by American initi-
|ntive anil ingenuity. Service grew steadily better anti
■cheaper. Farm by farm, area by area, the web of wire
Expanded.
..What of tomorrow? Today, fttfs/wess-manageti elec-
itric companies serve 1,850.000 farms (about two-
Ithirds of all electrified farms) and more than 4.000,-
*000 other rural customers outside of incorporated
[towns. That’s real progress.
But the job isn’t done. Right now, as fast as men
land materials become available, these luuinem-man-
jaged companies like CTL are extending reliable, low-
priced electric service to more than 1.000,000 addi-
tional farm and rural non-farm customers. Then:
