The motor-car was for many years the luxury of the few, because of its costliness. But standardisation and quantity production brought prices down within tho reach of everybody, while adding greatly to the efficiency of the car. Quite the same result has been achieved in regard to clectric lighting plants. Most farmers have at one tinio or another thought it would be a great help and convenience to have electricity on their farms. But tho cost of a private installation was prohibitive. Now there is available a complete electric lighting and power plant at a price any farmer can easily afford. This new and highly-cfficient system is known as I>elco-Light. Several plants aro already in operation in New Zealand farms —and every ono of them is doing wonderful work. At a mere touch Del co-Light brilliantly illuminates every room and outbuilding. Its light is clear and flickerless, and, of course, it does away with the danger of fire from open flames or overturned lamps. Besides, with Delco-Light there are no ftimes or smoko —no wicks to trim, or lamps to clean —advantages that will be appreciated _by over-worked housewives. Delco-Light also furnishes power to operate all small machinery, such as cream separators, pumps, washing-ma-chinos.' churns, sewing-machines, and vacuum cleaners. Tho plant is simple, compact, and practically foolproof. It can bo operated by a child, and soon ppvs for itself in ftimc and labour savod. All farmers, country storekeepers, and owners of count7-y residences should investigate Deleo-Lipht. A post-card to tho Now Zealand Fanners" Co-op. Association, Ltd., Christchurch, will bring full particular?. Those who call at the FtrooE Showrooms can inspect a Delco-Light installation in operation. o
