Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.

Herein is brought together a collection of precepts and ad vice on the setting up and management of a home.

The book is written and compiled primarily for those women who are managing households, not for those who are teaching or who are students in the class-room.

It has been the purpose to bring together from many reliable sources the guiding rules to be followed in making the home a place where the family can live a thrifty and joyous life.

It is compiled by those who understand the subject and the situation.

Chapters on hygiene and sanitation were prepared by the authors, but space would not allow of their inclusion.

This is a source. Of much regret, but the omission allowed a fuller treatment to be retained in the remaining chapters.

The book is intended primarily for rural conditions.

The country home should receive as careful and considerate atten tion as the farm itself.

The home is inseparable from the farm. Yet, as the principles and practices of home-making are the same in country and town, the book should actually meet the needs of a wide range of people.

The Editor is glad to add a book in his series on the work and welfare of women, and he hopes it will not be the last.

The woman's work and the man's work together make the welfare of any people secure.
