June is
Dairy Month...
'TfatuncUCef, it 4 i
Milk is nature’s most nearly perfect food, and
we never outgrow our need for it. We salute the
great dairy industry ... its advances and develop
ments which result in the superior quality milk
and dairy products we enjoy today.
Naturally, milk is good . . . and electricity helps
preserve this goodness and purity for you in many
ways. Electric milking machines, pumping systems
which convey milk from cow to cooler un-touched
by human hands, dependable electric refrigeration
to maintain proper temperatures . . . plenty of hot
water . . . ventilating fans . . . brightly lit milking
parlors . . . These are ways that low-cost electricity 1
helps dairying . . .
It’s progress like this, on the rural scene, that is
typical of cooperative rural electrification. A good
example of how the bringing of area coverage elec
tric service—the mission of the Rural Electrics
—means great benefits for ALL Americans. - J

Advice is like snow; the softer it
falls the longer it dwells on and
; the deeper it sinks into the mind.
—Samuel Coleridge,
Meet the home-style executive
and her all-electric staff!
Today’s woman is a marvel. She does more homemaking jobs than ever
before, yet devotes more time to community and family affairs.
She has learned to make full use of versatile electricity. It helps so
much with so many chores. And the average price per kilowatt-hour
is the lowest in history.
Electricity does major jobs efficiently: jobs like cooking, heating
water, keeping room temperatures just right in summer and winter. It
does little jobs so easily that she can almost forget them.
There isn’t a better — or cleaner — way to cook, cool, or heat than
with flameless electricity.
Check your list of electric servants. If it’s time to reorganize your
staff, call our home economists. They’re glad to assist all home-style
executives. And their help is free.
