electricity makes possible.

Credit for this great achievement in our State lies with many indi. viduals and groups. Earliest pioneering was done by the Electric Come panies of Indiana working with electric equipment manufacturers, individual farmers and the Purdue Agricultural Experiment Station. Their work is largely responsible for the high percentage of Indiana farms enjoying electricity in the early 1930's, as compared to the na. tional average. Starting in 1937, REMC distribution systems began to extend electricity to many others. Today, the electric utilities of Indiana provide service directly to about 48% of the State's farms, and they pro. vide energy at wholesale to the REMC systems of the State who dis. tribute electric power to approximately 52%.
