The federal government has made arrangements to finance this program for all interested farmers.
To secure this aid we must have enough farmers in the county who are interested to make the construction of the line practical and to organize a cooperative to carry on the work.
As soon the weather and roads permit we will have a series of meetings at which time we will have a representative of the federal government present to discuss the program with you.It was the first farmer-owned power plant in the United States to receive an REA grant in 1937 and in 1938 it was the second to go on-line.
There were four generators powered by diesel engines when the plant was in full production.
