PURE SEED OATS
1t is even more difficult to get pure

other grains named, as but few sam

wild oats. The best varieties to sow

much es patients would to a physician eager for help. The Harpers Bazaar peo- pie were interested, and immediately asked her to take up the work she is now doing on the Bazar The stories therein set forth are not fictitious: and Dl her handling of them, Miss Johnson is certainly helping to, solve many of the financial difficulties caused by the lack on the part of the women of early train ing in the great profession of home making.
 The plans of the household economies department for the next two years are twofold. First, to urge the study of tex tiles, and of the present tariff regulations on wool, etc. in the hope Of furthering more equitable schedule and pure textile bill This work has been especially be- qreathed to the department from the pre- ce6ing administration, and is of great and far-reaehing importance. The at- teption of club women has been steadily directed for a number of years to the study of foods and sanitation, and this
 is still necessary and will continue to be so. But the subject of textiles, espe- cielly in it's economic bearings, is also of great moment, and has hitherto been slfghted. The second object of the de- partment is the establishment of the cul- turai value of home economies. Too long, Miss Johnson thinks, has the subject beer regarded as related to cooking and sewing only She says:
 Home economies in their economic and social forms should be taught in every girls school and college in the country. Household administration is the privilege O the woman. 1t seems to me quite time to cease talking about her duty and point out the privileges of her position as wife and mother and household admins trator. The man regards his business as a pleasure. He plays it as. he plays q game and he plays to win. There are cer- tain qualities which need to be taught and preached in this game of housekeep- ing in order that may show the great end and object of it all, and stop focusing our attention on the means. Cooking and sewing are a means to an end. They are net ends in themselves. And the end and aim of home economics are to so accom- plish these means that we may reduce the labor connected with them to the minimum, and learn in the margin of time we thereby gain the art of joy"
 Under the direction of this department. with it's trained leader, the women of the Federated Clubs will endoubtedly make enormous strides in the directions indicated and their influence and example will be widely felt for they are a million strong and constantly increasing in num- bers. If a little leayen leavenetlI a whole lump. surely the influence of these ann bilious and conscientious women must be Of incalculable effect in raising the tone and standard of living throughout the country.
