Electrifying Your Farm and Home

Abstract

Excerpts from the report: REA has prepared this booklet in the hope that it will bring you the message of what complete electrical service will mean to you and every member of your family both in your home and on the farm itself. Electricity holds tremendous promise for the farms of the United States. REA is trying to change what is today a great hope into an equally great actuality. REA is organized to assist the farmer, through loans, to obtain electric service. In doing so, REA will deal with local organizations—local cooperatives, incorporated electrical contractors, private utilities with rural service lines, and State, district, or municipal electric systems operating rural lines. REA will not lend funds to individual farmers directly, nor can it finance wiring on just a few farms. The loans must be used to wire a fairly large group of farms, so that economies of mass construction can be realized.
