But many things look easy when you know very little about them. Adequate electric wiring, for instance. When it comes to wiring your farm, don*t be fooled because it looks easy. You may think the Smith boy could do it "because he*s so handy,** but you'll save plenty of future regrets if you get an expert on the job from the start. You'll find (particularly if you watch the electrician wire your farm) that it is a job for quite a skilled tradesman. Start off by getting the best man you can, to do the best and most complete wiring job for all your immediate and future needs. It is easier to add to your electrical equipment as you want to IF YOU START RIGHT with ADEQUATE WIRING. THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION OF ONTARIO ADDITIONAL LOCALS Mrs. J. F.
