Fig. 8. Electric load for 1925 and 1926 on Farm No. 6. 



The light consumption during the winter months, as shown in Fig. 8, rises as 

 high as might be expected, considering that poultry lights are used. 



The sudden rise in the heat circuit from November to December is due to 

 experimental operation of certain equipment. Normally the curve would con- 

 tinue to decline somewhat at this season. 



The curve of total consumption follows very closely the heating circuit curve 

 from June to the end of 1926.
