No 336710, USDA Miscellaneous from United States Department of Agriculture

Abstract: This survey was undertaken as a supplement to the C.W.A. [Civil Works Administration] Farm Housing Survey. The purposes of the survey, other than to give employment, were to obtain information supplemental to data from the Housing Survey, census, and other sources, relative to the present availability of electric service to farmers, its use, and the possibilities of extending service to additional farms. Other purposes were to foster local interest in improved farm living conditions and in rural line construction which would give employment to workers. The data collected are to be made available to the Public Works Administration and to any organization which can use them for the benefit of the public.
