B. H. Andrew & Son Perry, Georgia "AT YOUR SERVICE" START THE 4 NEW YEAR RIGHT By Paying Your Subscription TO THE Houston Home Journal Why it is Easy to Own The Westinghouse Light and Power Plant has demonstrated in actual day-in and day-out service on farms that it is dependable and easy to operate. And now, by making it easy to own as well as easy to operate, West inghouse has brought all the advantages of electric service within the reach of every farmer and his family. Electric lights in the farm house and buildings, electric household appliances, and eiectric power wherever needed, are made available without delay. The special Westinghouse deferred payment plan spreads the cost of the plant itself, the wiring and the equipment, over a period of twelve months. After making the first payment the farmer may elect to pay the balance in six, nine or twelve equal monthly payments. Or, if he wishes, he may pay for the plant in one, two or three payments to be made after the completion of his erop harvests. The complete flexibility of this plan makes it applicable to every farmer's needs. You can install a Westinghouse Light and Power Plant on your farm, enjoy th? comfort and convenience it will bring you, and puy for it when your crop? are sold. That's why it is so easy to own. Let us tell you more about it. LIGHT AND POWER. PLANT T"* - k umufe Easy to Operate F. J. MORAN, Central City Hotel Building MACON, GA. FOR SALE On Perry and Fort Valley Road One Mile from Perry.
