Laat Suojday m^py«pe°p|e in Sherman county attended the
funeral of a comparatively young man who was killed in the course
of his duties as a driver of a truck. He was killed because it was
the practice and custom of the company by which he was em
ployed to let their drivers go as long as physically possible with
out sleep. Edgar Justesen, whose funeral was attended, was a

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.
