The McElligotts use electricity in many ways, but one of the most practical is to help save newborn calves with heat lamp type "incubators" like the one shown above. Dick, and his brother, Don, ranch a spread out of lone in the Eightmile canyon area. Like most ranchers in this area their principal products are wheat and cat tle. With a sparkle in his eye, Dick related about some of the early problems that they had with their electric ity when they first got their 110 volts by wire back about 1950. He was quick to add that the Columbia Basin people were real good about getting things fixed in a hurry, and that they were real prompt to get re pairs started even in blizzards. If you have a problem with your electricity, give Col umbia Basin a call and they will find and correct the problem as quickly and efficiently as possible.
