THURSDAY, DECEMBER 31, 1936. THE HERMISTON HERALD. HERMISTON. OREGON. CAGE FIVE of W. J. Warner, my attorney, in Hermiston, Oregon, verified as the law directs, within six months from the date hereof. Dated this 24th day of December, 1936. L. W. DIXSON. Executor. (Dec. 24—Jan. 21) ---------- -• =------ —- FARM CO-OPERATIVE DIVISION | JA MESSAGE COOPERATIVE RURAL ELECTRIFICATION I. H. HULL, Manager Indiana Farm Bureau Cooperative Asa’n. I became interested in rural elec- trification two years ago when a party made a tour of Denmark and Sweden and saw the effect of that development in those Scandinavian countries. We saw there things that rather disabused our minds of some of the traditional faith we have had in our American standards of living. We visited little country homes in Denmark where we saw two out of every three farm homes electrified. We thought of the people back in Indiana and these other states. In Indiana only one out of eight homes is electrified. We wondered where the term sprang from "American home standards of living.” We thought of the drab conditions around over our State and in our Indiana homes and the desperate hopelessness of the condi tions under which a lot of our peo ple live. We could not help but think perhaps there is something that they have been missing. The Only Way to Rural Electrification. TO EVERY MEMBER.
