Rural electrification boosts living standards and farm productivity
Surveys by the Birecore Water System Council show electric water systems raise rural living standards. From 1933 to 1936 installations rose from 57 000 to 157 000 homes, with 250 000 projected in 1937 as farmers gain power for lighting, refrigeration, and machinery. The industry notes higher household energy use and says continued progress depends on economic conditions and government cooperation.
