stored in barn and stable with the farm
crops growing at the most rapid rate

general knowledge Of The farm 5. F.

that financially, socially, politically and
in everything else the farmers wife
should share equally with the husband !;
Il hat her advice should be needed and
>he should know about the general
d fairs of the farm. Mrs. Lewis Beal is
in favor Of woman's rights and believed
that she should understand how every
thing is going on. +. o. Harris is will
ing that the wife should share in the in
come and benefits of the farm, Mrs. 5. j..
Atwood is Of the same opinion. Horace

a general knowledge of the business Of
the farm. II. 6. Hardwav believes that
it requires skill and brain power to sue
cessfully conduct the affairs of the farm
and on general principles the two can do
better than one, ana II the farmer has a
el-headed daughter it is well to con
suit her in relation to the farm work.

affairs of the farm and this is one thing
the Grange is teaching. Worthy Master
who favor farmers wives having full
and equal rights with the husband.
Alonzo Smith believes that if wives can
materially aid their husbands in the
business of the farm they should do so,
and the prosperity of the farmer in most
cases depends upon the helpful influences
that are derived from the wife. a live
