Video Capture of 1950's film story about the University of Wisconsin-Madison Electric Research Farm.
A 16 mm sound color film dedicated to the reduction of chore time and hand labor on America's Dairy Farms.
The Wisconsin Electric Research Farm is an experimental farm providing
opportunity to study under actual working conditions the application
of electric light, heat and power to all phases of dairy farm
operation.
The film shows how the American dairy farmer can reduce his chore
time and hand labor with proper management, good planning and the
use of electrical equipment. Electricity-to pump water, milk the cows,
unload silage, clean the barn, dry hay, grind feed, and many other uses.
From the transformer-to the distribution panel-to the house-the
barn-the hog and poultry houses-the farm shop-and other buildings-
the film rapidly summarizes research in the field of farm electrification
.
