t't't' < 3tlA oA tIlt httGHelGllt NulIl OH a Ford roadster, which was familiar to many residents of the county. is carried by the farm journal. with the following account of how it was ori- giaated and used:
 Visions of srdenette on wheels in the adept muj uf Mss Ella Pasey. former home demonstration ag9at of Faulkner county, and present district agent of southwest Arkansas re- suited in a kitchen a Ia Fond whereby real demonstrations in those things pertaining to culinary art could be taken to any gart of the county W.th the minimum of effort and the maxi mum of efficiency
 Miss Posey. true to the type of tho home demonstration agent, would not be satisfied with mediocre results. She wanted to take proper methods of cooking canning, and home making to the women and girls of her county So she set about equipping a model kitchen on the rear of a Ford ear and her story as she tells 1t serves to show that she secured admirable results.
 'The first year 1 worked in Faulk- nee county hal no suitable equipment for giving ny demonstrations " says Miss Po-y. ~I travelled with . horse and aaa-E a#a va ne.t aul m#et.He~ q #l51ersa. homes ore tbe efHaE. Iu ee- i'm. l faIo' 1Aae ths .see.- Hss e.. T going t5 he -4eeazz7 7u,

 sY8aNe HeaF5 i. sad that nec y s the mazha1 or invention Well wi.a necessity starring me tu the face l had to invent a more efficient and speedy plan of work. so just had vision of a ktahenette cn a Ford car For county trips l had detachable truck made, two and half feet wide and thlee and a half feet long. with heavy black oil cloth cover to keep out rain and dust This cost me $16.50.
 For equipment I had one three burner oil stove with two-burner oven donated by four merchants of Conway, the county seat; one steam pressure cooker; one Halls hot water canner, the case of which I used as a fireless cooker; one iceless refriger ator; one double boiler; one mixing bowl; one vegetable drier; three bread pans; measuring spoons, pairing knives, spatula, dish towels and aprons to last week. The only thing lack ing was hand sewing machine which l expected to add this year had l re- mained in county work.
 With this car I could cross the county in a very few hours and in 30 minutes after arrival at my destina- tion, with the cheerful assistance of boys and girls, be ready for work. My only duty was to write to the president or secretary of the differ ent clubs my instructions and date of arrival for the demonstration and everything would be carried out to the letter. Sometimes we had regular les sons for cooking, sometimes we would can four or five different vegetables and fruits at time, and while these were cooking we would either take up work in poultry or sewing. In this way we accomplished a great deal, as was shown at our county club exhibit this fall.
 "The parents of the boys and girls would be invited and frequently we would have from 100 to 150 present at our demonstrations. These meet ings were always presided over by the boys and girls themselves. Afternoon meetings were devoted to instructions in the work and evening meetings con- sisted of a program and a social hour.
 "Our Ford with the kitchen attached in the county with a total attendance of about 1000. With the horse and buggy system we had 12 clubs with an enrolment of $50 boys and girls. With our Ford equipment we had 23 clubs with an enrolment of over TOO boys and girls.
 "We canned hundreds of jars of vegetables and fruit besides great quantity of jellies and preserves, to say nothing of the great amount of sewing and poultry work we were enabled to do. As an example of our progress in standardizing canning club work, last year we had only five stand ard jars of fruit in the county, while this year over 30 dozen cans of vege- tables were put up in standard jars There are in the county this year more than $500 jars of vegetables for sale that have been canned by club members"
 To show that Faulkner county realizes the value of the work done
