Every Home Deserves the Extra
Convenience of Full-House Power
There's a good reason why the modern homomnker
tan do more and do it belter than ever before.
It's called "full-house power," the ability to take
advantage of all the miracles of total-electric living!
; 1 -jS

r -Jii i j 1
-. , - i L ? V IT
Z'V j
If your home has these symptoms, brino. "full-house
power" by installing a hucr eiilrancn panel (fuse
box). The increased capacity will relievo over
loaded circuits and eniibli; ull appliances to jjet all
the electricity they need.
An Electric Clothes Dryer, for example, eliminates
those "wash day blues." No worry about rainy, win
try weather; you can dry the family's wash any time.
Just load the dryer . . . the rest is done automatically.
There are a world of helpful appliances to make
your chores go faster. Electric mixers to brinjj more
variety to your meals; electric sweepers to help
clean your home; electrical appliances to ease your
kitchen chores.
Small wonder that the use of electrical power has
more than doubled in the past decade! Yet many
homes have the same wiring system that was de
signed for limited use of electricity, Naturally,
circuits have become over-loaded; appliances
"starved" for electrical power. That's why lights
dim when appliances are started; fuses blow too
frequently.
Up-dating your wiring system is not expensive.
You'll be repaid time mid time again with trouble
free operation of your appliances.
Your rural electric cooperative will gladly make
a free "power survey" to help you delermino your
trouble areas and find economical answers to your
problems.
