course no housewife ought to expect
others to assist her without definite direc-
tions as to what they are supposed to do
with a definite task there is always defin-
tie responsibility and with responsibility
SO persons out of 100 do much better work
than when they have none. Especially is
this SO where child helpers are concerned.
If you tell your little 9-year-old daughter
that her duty in the housework Is to see
that the living rooms are busted and
to set the dinner table every day she will
produce much better results than were
you to expect her to be present to assist
you while you performed the various
tasks of the housework. Aside from CIV
ing the little daughter much greater
satisfaction and a chance to act on her
own initiative you have taken from your
already laden shoulders the responsibility
of a certain task.
Then there is the 12-year-old son, WHO
is just at a lazy age when it does seem
as if you couldn't get him to help you
with any of the works Suppose you say
to him something like this:
Since you are no longer little boy,
an going to treat you like a man. In
stead Of expecting you to be at my beck
and call after school hours to run err
rands and help with the work, am 60
ing to give you definite tasks to perform
shall only judge or praise you by the re-
suits. I expect you to keep the walks
around the house and the porches clean
and 1 expect you to see that the walks
are shoveled in case OF snowstorm.
shall give you 25 cents in addition to your
allowance for every storm. from which
you may employ some one to help you
with the shoveling if you choose. also
expect you to see that all the plants In
| the house are watered every day. Now
1 am never going to remind you Of these
tasks. And I am not going to tell you
when to do them. There 10 to be no more
'nagging.' Hereafter. shall treat you
| like man, and Judge siIuply by results. u
What do you think your results would
be? Perhaps you don't realize how much
better that son Of yours would work II
you actually did institute the COMMITTEES
system in your household as it has been
Instituted in 50 many others.

Eseher on Agricultural Board.

Des Moines. Feb. 1O.-Charles Esch-
er, Jr., of Botna, yesterday was APP
pointed a member Of the state board Of
agriculture from the ninth district,
succeeding John Summers of Malvern.
The selection was made by the board
in session at the state house
Mr. Summers submitted his resig-
nation. owing to the fact that he has
moved to Chicago and now Is manag
ing a seed house. For number Of
years he has been on the Iowa board
Of agriculture and served during the
state fairs as superintendent of con-
cessions. The new member of the
board is known turnout the state as a
stock breeder and for years has been
an exhibitor at the Iowa fair.
Most of the time of the board yes
terday was taken up by a discussion
of improvements to be made on the

to financial stringency, the board is
not in position to make extensive i'm
provements, the president pointed out.
