132 WEDNESDAY, MAY 12, 1926 At meeting at Sherman Hotel on "What about Rural Electrification" About 75 were present mostly publishers. The discussion developed the fact that while electricity in the house on the farm is a fine thing yet until electricity can be put to productive uses on the farm it will not pay the Utilities companies to build country lines. Small feed grinders with automatic feed that can run at night etc. is what is hoped for. Had a long talk with J.B. Davidson. He thinks we are on the right track on our AllCrop tractor. He has travelled much lately & says he has seen nothing to change his mind. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bought dark silk material for dressing gown for Elise and fittings for my travelling cane. Home at 8-
