P ortable electric m otors, used on con veyors, fee d -g rin d e rs, silag e-cu tters, etc., sp e e d a n d e a se m any farm jobs. Because of work like this by pioneering companies, and the national program of the REA, electrified farming across the nation has made tremendous strides toward the goal we all ¿ esire—electricity on every farm in America!
