Having As Many Com- _ _ forts and Conveniences as Possible* - ELECTRIFY YOUR FARM AND HOME IS THE ANSWER. Electrification on the farm is no longer in the experimental stages. Actual tests with electrical machin ery and appliances over a period of years have proven that electric pow er is the most efficient and economi cal form of mechanical power. The cost of appliances ¿nd machin ery ? They more than pay for them selves in more economical farm op erations; in a higher standard of liv ing. If your farm and home are not elec trified, ychi are doing work that a. machine can do for you; you are wasting valuable time in farm op erations. * IT MAKES DOLLARS AND CENTS FOR YOUI Pacific Power & Light Co.
