RURAL WOMAN S
HOME PROBLEMS
ARE DISCUSSED
Elizabeth Kelley Gives Fair Sex
Pointers for Maintaining
Health
COUNTRY BEST PLACE
TO BRING UP CHILDREN
Says Farm Woman Is an 1ndis.
pensable Part of Country
Establishment

Milwaukee, Wis, Oct 2l.-Home
problems of the rural woman in rela'
ton to the health of her family were
discussed by Elizabeth Kelley of the
University of Wisconsin at the ses.
sion on Rural Communities at the sew
enth annual meeting of the American
Association For Study and Prevention
of Infant Mortality at Milwaukee to-
day. She called attention to the fact
that though the country is the best
place from the standpoint of health,
in which to bring up children. it is
clearly shown by the mortality rec
orls that the death rate among in
fants from birth to one year is great
er in the country than it is in many
large cities.
This" she said, lis mainly due to
three causes: Poor grade Of country
doctors, lack of nurses and lack OF
domestic help. The farm woman is
an indispensable part of the farm
establishments. Tire Nome IL Che only
commissary department on the farm.
When the farm woman Is incapacitat'
led the running order of the farm plant
breaks down at its most important
point. 1t naturally follows that the
farm wife feels she must be absent
from her post not more than three or
four days at the time of childbirth.
When she resumes her household du'
ties after this absence she finds 50
much to be done that she works be-
yond her strength and lessons the
supply of milk SO that it becomes
necessary to artiflcially feed the child
partly or wholly.
"The remedy for the first two
causes-namely, poor physicians and
lack of nurses, lies with the medical
profession, but the last, teaching the
mother how to care for herself before
and after childbirth is the province
of Home Economics.
1.-THE farm woman can no more rem"
edy the lack of domestic help than
the farmer can remedy the lack of
hands on the farm. Like him, she
must turn to power machinery to
solve her problems. The husband
has the seeder, the planter, the cul.
tivator, the mower, the reaper, all
run by power. so the wife must have,
first, running water in the house,
then the bread mixer, the dishwasher,
the meat grinder, the washing ma
chine, the vacuum cleaner. She must
learn to make machinery, guided by
her brains, do the work that dozen
human hands cannot do. She must
learn that it is her patriotic duty to
give to the state, strong, healthy boys
and girls and to do this she must
know the laws of life and health and
hOme-making."

4FleN SUMNER has stared civiliza
ton in the face for all ages. Nobody
has known much about it. Nobody
knows how many fatherless babies
there are, nobody knows how much
society has to pay for the problem OF
illegitimacy.
"The trouble about securing infor
nation about illegitimate children
said Miss Helen l.. Sumner, assistant
chief of the children's bureau in
charge of the work, ''is that inquirers
usually try to find out too much; that
is, more than it is practicable to Sc
secure accurately in any inquiry OF
this character.
"The schedule we have prepared
and which we will furnish to any city
authorities is designed to secure the
information which it is possible to Sc.
cure and which is necessary for an
intelligent study OF the problem
The children's bureau has been for
more than year engaged in detail
ed study of the problem of illegit'
imacy in one of the big 'American
cities. The data have been collected
from the records of institutions and
organizations which deal with ille'
gitimate children, and when the re-
suits of the study are 'tabulated, many
new and interesting facts about the
relation of illegitimaoy to other prob
Ilems,. such. as dependency, and men
tai effectiveness, are expected.
Our aim in making the study
said Miss Sumner, ''has been, first, tn
find out how many of the children
who are cared for by the organiza.
tions and institutions of the city in
question are illegitimate.
Have you gone to the mothers
themselves to get this information
l asked.
mot at all,' said Miss Sumner
WE have made no attempt to inter
view individual mothers, and we will
not publish any information which
will betray in any way the identity
of any individual mother or child"

sion Of the need for economic prepar-

dent Wilson told delegation Of farm

day that he did not expect the United
States to get into war.
Il know that the way in which we
have preserved peace is objected to-

would have taken some other, thai
would inevitably have ended in war
but I am not expecting these gentle
men to make mess OF it"
Taking the work done by the ad
ministration for the farmers as his
text, Mr. Wilson declared:

senting the whole force of the ma
tion."

business again
There is a great deal of irrespon

paign. Men are saying things they
know perfectly we'll they cannot make
good on. and it disturbs the nationa
counsel. On the 7th of November
we will call time"
Mr.. Wilson said the Democratic
party had been trying to take the gov
ernment out of the control of small
groups and square it with the coun
sci of the whole nation
In detail, he told of work being
done to mobilize the industrial re-
sources of the nation, saying lone
of the great lessons of the European
war has been that the economic CO.
ordination and cooperation of the
country is just as important as the
military coordination of it."

dress was the celebration of Farm.
ers' Day at Shadow Lawn, but a
delegation of architects and engineers

season, Much corn has not been planted
as the result of the rain. Small fruits
such as strawberries and cherries suffer-

The grass crop has benefited by the

for big yield OF hay.

PORT COLLECTOR IN DANGER WHEN
 BIG WIND BLOWS
Seeking Bremen, Yacht Car rying MT. Met Govern Has
 Battle With Waves.

New Haven, Aug. 16-C1erks in the custom house today learned of the perilous experience the collector of customs, James l.. McGovern, had yes- terday, on Julius Fleishmann's yacht, Wh1rlwind, while searching for the German sub Bremen off Fishers Isl- and. The Whirlwind was battered by heavy seas and nearly foundered. Collector McGovern, accompanied by Deputy Collector Jeremiah Dillon and Postmaster Bryan F. Mahan of New London. went out lon the F1eishmanp yacht after a report came in that a sub was sighted five miles south of Fishers Island.
 The sea was too rough for govern ment craft, and three tugs which start ed out were obliged to put back. MT. Fleischmann thereupon rendered his yacht to the collector of customs for Connecticut. The customs flag was run up on the Whirlwind and MT. Me- Govern started out to meet the Brem- en.
 No traces of the reported craft could be found. Unable to proceed beyond Race Rock, the Whirlwind, which is 125 feet long and of very narrow beam, had to lie to for an hour, while the waves swept over her and moMen- tarily threatened to engulf her. She experienced great difficulty in getting to New London. Captain Smith and MT. Fleischmann said that in their many years experience on Long Isl- and Sound they had not encountered before so high sea.
