I F you. yourself, were building a 
light and power plant for your 
farm, you would make it first— 
understandable. You would look 
at your plow, your mower, your 
reaper, and you'd say “My plant 
must be as easy to understand, as 
easy to use, as long-lived as they 
are.” 
Now, that’s exactly the way 
Farmeleetric, the “Ford Parts 
Plant,” is built. 
An Engine You and I Understand 
Farmeleetric is built around an 
engine you and I understand— 
the Ford Motor, You and I have 
bought more than 5,000,000 Ford 
cars because of that simplicity. 
The Ford motor can be run by 
a child; it has none of the intri¬ 
cate mechanical parts which get 
out of order easily and are diffi¬ 
cult to adjust. It is always easy 
to keep in repair. It lasts a life¬ 
time. 
And Farmeleetric “takes after” 
Ford on every one of these points! 
T WO million farmers are taking the last steps necessary to 
put the farm ahead of the city. Railroad, telephone, auto¬ 
mobile—each have meant much to the farmer in carrying him 
forward at the city pace. Farmeleetric, the “Ford Parts 
Plant,” with its countless economies and conveniences, goes 
ahead of the city. Knowing no bounds of wire, it searches out 
each home of hill or valley, there to do its double duty of light 
and power. 
A half million farmers have already taken the step—their 
homes are farms electric. 
Oil lamps are gone, and for half the oil twice the light flashes 
into being at the turn of a switch. Wearisome hand labor is 
gone, too, for tiny motors take up the tasks and accomplish in 
a moment—at a fraction of the cost—what before required 
hours. 
Farmeleetric 
Light & Power 
The FORD PARTS Plant 
is playing an important part in this great farm change—and 
for a very definite and certain reason—because Farmeleetric 
is designed, built and operated just as a farmer would have 
done it had he been doing it himself. 
An 80,000 Mile Record 
Perhaps you're wondering how long your 
light and power plant is going to last. To 
answer, we'll ask you if you ever saw a 
Ford car worn out. We never have. There's 
one we know about with 80,000 miles to its 
credit. It's still good for further service, 
and that despite the fact that its labor has 
teen done over rough, muddy flirt roads 
all its life. 
Farmeleetric, you know alt ft indoors all 
its life to do its work—n. jolting, no mud, 
DO hard weather to contend with. ,\i 
800,000 "miles" it ought to look and a< 1 
like a newly horn. 
Who Stands Back of Farm- 
electric? 
When you ask who makes Farmeleetric, 
you ask about a thing we’re more than 
ready to tell you. 
Farmelectric’s position in the light and 
power held is a secure one. The experience 
of the people Who make it—the Poole Eugi- 
neering and Machine Company —goes back, 
not: only to the beginning of the light and 
power industry, but many years more— 
almost 80 years. In the factory where 
Farmeleetric is built Poole built water 
wheels, hack iu 1.84;;, Men who are now 
grandfathers built mortars there for the 
Civil War. Cable car drives, when such 
conveyances came in; the first disappearing 
gun carriages; later 40,000 shells a day, 
along with ipiniitities of guns to help 
America end the war, made Poole history. 
Fine gear reduction machinery, locomo¬ 
tive boosters, washing machines and Farm- 
electric are among the activities of Poole 
today. Grandsons, in many instances, work 
at the same bench where did those who 
came before them, holding to the same 
Meals. These are the reasons why Farm- 
electric can’t be anything else than the 
finest light and power plant built.

Anyone, Anywhere, Any Time, is 
a Good Farmeleetric Operator 
All you have to do is to feed it fuel, 
lubricate it, recharge the battery—time 
consumed, perhaps Twenty minutes a week. 
To recharge, you push a button and start 
the engine. Then you go on about your 
farm work and forget all about Farm- 
electric. For, with consumption of the 
proper measure of fuel to fully charge the 
battery, the engine stops. For demands of 
the usual farm, recharging isn't necessary 
more than two or three times a week. The 
fuel is kerosene—the same you now use in 
your oil lamps -more efficient than gaso¬ 
line (though you can use that, if you wish) 
and so cheap that the little you use in 
Farmeleetric is less than you now buy for 
your lamps and lanterns. 
Farmeleetric has no fuel pump, no car¬ 
buretor, no oil pump, no magneto, no “auto¬ 
matic" governor—no trouble-making devices 
to keep you busy. 
Standardized in design, built with the 
economics of quantity production, it comes 
to you at a price and in a manner whereby 
its savings quickly pay its cost. And you 
can liny Farmeleetric today for less money 
than any other plant of like capacity—even 
for Jess' than some plants of much lower 
t aparity. 
And it can be bought on the simple basis 
of $25 with your order—$25 to start to 
your farm the thing which will not only 
tiring you comfort, and convenience you've 
never before known, but do it efficiently 
and economically as long as you Jive.

New Wage Scale for Farm Labor 
Farmeleetric will light your sitting room 
for an entire evening for a penny. It will 
do your weekly washing for a nickel. It 
will' heat tbe* iron for a comfortable hour 
or two of ironing on the cool side porch 
for three cents an hour. 
Farmeleetric— your light arid power plant 
—will milk your rows at the rate of a 
penny an hour, will separate the milk for 
a cent an hour, and for two cents churn 
the cream into butter. 
You can't say light and power is expen¬ 
sive—with a Farmeleetric.

A Hundred Thousand “Service 
Stations” 
Your light and power plant—when long 
continued years require the replacement of 
wearing parts—is quickly and cheaply put 
in order. That’s because it's the “ Ford 
/‘art* Plant.” 
Henry Ford sees to it that when people 
need parts, they don’t have to wait. In a 
moment they are at a Ford dealer's—there 
are more ttian a hundred thousand of those 
—and the part needed is always there 
And, when you come to putting these 
parts in, you're on familiar ground. You 
know a Ford engine. If you don’t, there 
are a dozen men and sometimes a woman 
—near you who do know how, and every 
part drops into place the one way which 
never permits of a mistake—the right way.
