Electricity for the Farm 



Light, Heat and Power by Inexpensive Methods from the Water 



Wheel or Farm Engine 



By FREDERICK IRVING ANDERSON 



Author of "The Farmer of Tomorrow" 



Cloth, 12mo, Illustrated, $1.25 



A year or so ago there was published an exceedingly practical little 

 work entitled "The Farmer of Tomorrow." Rarely has as much of genu- 

 ine value been put into a book as was put into this one, and the author, 

 Frederick Irving Anderson, was looked to for further contributions in 

 the same field. The announcement, therefore, of the appearance of 

 " Electricity for the Farm" will be welcomed by all farmers and students 

 •of agricultural matters. 



Mr. Anderson believes that many farmers are not making the most of 

 their opportunities. He shows how, with very little expense, a farmer 

 may have all the benefits of electricity for light, heat, and power either 

 by installing a simple gasolene engine or by using the neglected brook 

 that runs through some part of the farm lands. As he points out, a mighty 

 stream is not necessaiy to secure sutficient power, but a riviilet with only 

 a little fall will quite answer the purpose. Realizing, however, that not every 

 farm has even "a babbling brook," he considers other sources of power.
