Everybody benefits when food is more plentiful -thanks to America's Rural Electrics SHENANDOAH VALLEY BRANCH STAUNTON MT. (886-4231) Rural power is a wellspring of America's food abundance. Thanks to his consumer-owned rural electric system, America's farmer does his work faster and more efficiently. Electricity helps him feed and water more cattle and hogs, hatch and care for more chickens, milk more cows. It lights his barns, cools milk and cream, and keeps food fresh and safe.

The end result is fresher, healthier food on your table. And it takes less of your family budget than ever before. Consumer -owned rural electric systems--in most cases cooperatives -help guarantee that America's farmers will be able to meet all of this nation's growing demands for food. These rural electrics were built with the help of Rural Electrification Administration loans- -and they are owned and directed by the people they serve. As farmers use more and more electricity to produce more and better food, REA loans continue to help the rural electrics keep pace with the ing demand -and everybody benefits.
