Captain Harding suggests the substitu-

He suggests that the salary of the in

MAKING GIRLS HAPPY ON FARMS

Mrs. Meredith Tells About the School
for Farmers Wives in Minnesota.
What the West Is doing In the way
of training girls to live happy lives on
farms was very ably shown at Hunt
ington hall, Boston, recently by Mrs.
Virginia c. Meredith, preeeptress of the
school Of agriculture of Minnesota uni
verslty.
Mrs. Meredith has herself conducted
a successful stock farm for many years,
and she believes thoroughly In the
farm life for young people
"The farm home" she said. lis to
my mind the Ideal home and am
glad to say the thought in our school
Is always to educate the girl for the
life she Will have to live.
AT first we had only boys in the
school, but when these, noticing that
their sisters and sweethearts needed
to learn just what they were learn.
ing. begged us to take girls, too. we
did so, and now for four years we
have been training farmers daugh-
tiers to make happy farm homes.
"0ur girls study side by side with
the boys the different breeds of live
stock and the various developments
of plant life. A farmers wife needs
to know how to tell shorthorn from a
longhon, and what season Is best for
planting corn.
I'VE have been hearing In the past
much about the mans desire to get
away from the farm. The reason for
his restlessness lies In the dissatlsfac-
ton of his women folk with farm life
They needed to be taught that it was
interesting to make a farm home.
1--WE give our girls special work
adapted to women in the home. such
as cookery, which extends through the
three years, dairy chemistry, and plant
life. Buttermaking Is not drudgery
to the girl who understands the why
Of It, and sewing Is rapidly ceaslng to
become lost art now that girls see
that patterns are comprehensive
things and not Chinese puzzles
THE girl is taught, too, about tex.
tiles, a most interesting subject from
the farmers standpoint; and she at
tends lectures on household art in
which suitability Is shown to be the
deslderatum of a purchase of furniture.
THE application made In our school
Of mechanical drawing-that Of design
ing model farmhouses-will have
great influence on the coming farm
home Of Minnesota. When the present
generation build houses they VIII be
convenient ones"
