vvitA some p4tt eR the Asla Stox An
of this Is in addition ito cooking the
family meals and caring for the chil-
dren. n ~
This, Of course. p the dark side m
the shield. IN does not take into con-
sideration the many compensations
that come with the womaA's daily
round Of work for the comfort of her
family, and anyone who has expert
enced the satisfaction Of living in the
open country knows that the average
farm woman is more fortunately
placed than her average city sister.
But the task is sufficiently grinding, as
Miss Ward says, to send the farm
woman to bed breathing a prayer
that her strength may be equal to to-
mOrrOw'S duties"
Labor-savino Equipment Important
What is to be done about it? The
department suggests some very def.
mite things. 1.-The interest Of the de-
partment Of agriculture in the returns
from these studies as to labor, working
equipment, and compensatiOns Of the
farm women are as practical" says
Miss Ward, "as its interest in farm
studies regarding labor, machinery
and crop returns, and for the same
general reason" The farm woman's
working hours might be shortened,
she continues, if the principles Of mod
ern business were applied to the farm
home. Running water for the 60 per
cent who now must carry water, and
bathrooms for the 80 per cent who
now have none are other things that
would tighten the woman's labor and
add to her comfort and cOntentment.
Labor could be lessened if the farm
house were as well equipped as the up
to-date barn, which the farmer looks
upon as so much currency with which
to buy efficiency. The installation. of
modern lighting systems would release
some of the time Of the women in the
20 per cent of homes where kerosene
lamps are used. The initial cost would
be small when weighed against con-
venience and comfort. The installa-
ton of heating systems would release
some of the time of the 81 per cent
Of women who care for two coal or
wood stoves.
"As power on the farm is the great
est Of time and labor savers for the
farmer" Miss Wards report says, 80
power in the home is the greatest boon
to the housewife" Forty-eight per
cent of the farms covered by the SUR
vey reported power for operating farm
machinery but only 22 per cent have
this advantage for the home. THAT"
says Miss Ward, l''is a singular fact
when we consider that frequently 1t
is a simple matter to connect the en-
CINE used at the barn with the house
hold equipment" The washing ma
chine is another labOr-saver. Selling
the cream to a creamery wherever pos
sible instead of churning it at home
is still another. In short, the same
sort of intelligence and fraction OF
the money applied to making field and
barn work convenient would, if applied
to. the home, save untold drudgery to
the women of the farms and would add
both to the profit and the comfort OF
farm life.

OATS J! Best {; i CROP
Statistics Show Advantages
Over Corn Growing.
On Comparatively Cheap Land In
Western Canada Farmers Get Rec
ord ftelds-cost Per Acre Much
Lees Than Corn.

How much more does 1t cost to
grow an acre of corn than to grow an
acre Of oats? To get proper COM
parison 1t is necessary to take an H.
lustration from farm on which both
crops are grown successfully. An ex.
ample has just been brought to the
writer's attention Of the comparative
cost Of growing corn and oats on a
Minnesota farm. It is furnished by
Albert Inner, a well-known farmer in
Cottonwood county, Minn.. In an ar
ticle which appeared in the Cotton
wood Citizen.
Mr.. Inner says: II had a curiosity
to know how much 1t would cost to
raise an acre Of oats and corn. To
/ find out kept account. during the
year. Of the time required and the
cash expended to grow the above men,
toned crops" His figures show that
It cost him $31 40 to grow an acre OF
corn and $lS.13 1-3 to grow an acre OF
cats. or a difference Of $500 an acre
in favor of oats.
Provided the respective crop yields
are not altogether out of proportion to
the cost Of growing the crop, this
seems to be good argument in favor
Of growing oats. But to grow oats
successfully it is not necessary to use
$3.50 or 5000 land. In western Canad0
some Of the best oat-growing land In
the world can be bought for about SIC
an acre. On this land good yields and
a high quality of grain is obtainable.
Fifty to sixty bushels to the acre
in properly prepared land is a fair
average yield for oats in western Can
ada in a normal season but yields OF
up to 100 bushels. and even more, to
the acre lave been frequent in good
years. The Quality Of oats grown in
! western Canada is attested by the fact
that at all the international exhibi-
tons for many years past oats grown
in western Canada have been award
ed the leading prizes. There is on
record oats grown in western Canada
that have weighed as much as 48
pounds to the measured buskel, and
the dominion grain inspector is author.
