Circular by Miss Panc0asf.

The agricultural extension service
has issued circular, "The Farm
Kitchen" by Miss Carrie Pancoast. 1t
is intended to save time and strength
OF the farm women as well as money
and to provide sanitary conditions.
Besides plans showing the ideal ar
rangement of the kitchen, the circular
contains pictures of we'll arranged
kitchens in Greene, Jackson and
Johnson Counties. Special emphasis
is laid on the disadvantages of the
use of the kitchen as a room for all
work, because of improper flooring,
poor lighting and ventilation, unnec-
essary space, and bad placing of
equipment. An effort is made to
make the suggestions practieed for
families of various sizes and incomes
