Excerpt from Housewifery

This handbook of practical housekeeping is offered to women in the hope that it may show in some measure how to reduce tasks in the home and how to save time, money, and energy. This book will be of direct help to the many women who do their own work or supervise household employes and who are seeking guidance by consulting reference books as other professional workers do. The book is the outgrowth of many years of experience in house keeping and in teaching housewifery to groups of practical house keepers, with emphasis upon the technical processes oi the home. It is designed to help not Only the individual home woman but to serve as a text for study groups of rural extension and other club women and in the housekeepers' courses given by schools and colleges. Any further study of the sciences, directly or indirectly connected with housewifery, may be carried on by means of the references suggested throughout the book. Because of the many requests from former students, who are now teachers, for a book that brings housewifery topics within one cover, the author offers these suggestions from her experience. It is hoped that the outline of courses, the bibliography, and the sug gestions for laboratory supervision will meet the need so often expressed by teachers. The prices stated In the book are merely to give relative value, and can not be considered as definite In any locality.
