SAVING MONEY
WITH ELECTRICITY
How One Hotel Keeper Reduced a
Big Item of Expense
With the increased interest in
farming and farm living from the
efficiency standpoint, there is a great
tendency on the part of the farmer
to ask whether a proposed improve
ment will pay. Unquestionably most
of the modem improvements offered
to the farm home do pay in increas
ed comfort of living and hence in
increased ability to produce profit
bearing crops. And the keen farm
er of today realizes this. But it is
also interesting to note that some of
the modern improvements do pay dir
ectly through the dollars ana cents
savings they effect.
Take for instance the matter of the
elcctrjc vacuum sweeper. A certain
hotel keeper in a middle western
state found that the carpet, in the
hotel reception room, which was
cleaned by hard sweeping and an
occasional beating, liad to be removed
every three years. He installed
vacuum sweepers and found that his
next carpet lasted for seven years
instead of three. The reason was
that hard sweeping removed merely
surface dirt and that the dust and
fine grit left in the web of the
carpet and beneath it, and ground
into in by people walking on it, had
been slowly cutting the carpet to
pieces. When vacuum sweeping was
installed, the shaking effect of the
sweeper brushes and the suction of
the fan drew all of this dirt and grit
out and left the carpet to stand
merely the much easier wear of
walking. The hotel keeper found
that this saving through making
his carpets last twice as long more
than paid for the vacuum cleaning
system.
And the same thing will appeal
to the farmer's wife. She knows
that a large amount of sand and
dirt is brought into her house daily
and that any system which will help
her to keep her carpets free of it
will be well worth while. Fortunate
ly, the electric sweeper is at her
service today through the develop
ment of the small electric light and
power plants for farms. She's en
joying to the full the comfort and
convenience of electric light, and in
electric power she's finding a servant
to do the washing, ironihg,- separat
ing, churning and pumping as well
as the sweeping.
