Developing the Farm Home

II you had the privilege of being
a woman county agent what would
DE your idea about how to develop
the farm home? Why would you
undertake improvements of various
Kinds, and what would be the object
OF your endeavor? One of our Geor-
gla home economics agents, Miss
Amilee Mitchell, who has had wide
experience in dealing with the prob
lens of rural life and home max
ing, was asked to express her ideas
along the line indicated; whereup-
on. she undertook to prepare what
she denominated a three-year pro-
gram for the purpose of improving
the farm home. She should be able
to speak with authority, because she
has had the experience and the
chance to make the observations in
person upon which her conclusions
are predicated. She is sympa-
thetic teacher. She has maturity
understanding vision and apprecia-
ton of the problems. She has
brought the thought and energy
and skill she possesses to the solu-
ton and consideration of task that
we all know to be fundamental to
the welfare of society. 1t is a pleas
ure to be able to present the ideas
and thoughts she has formulated
along this line. l believe they will
make interesting reading for all
who are concerned with the solu-
ton of one of the most important
of our rural problems, namely, how
to make the country home such a
center of attractive life and condi-
lions that a desirable proportion of
the youth of America will be in
duced to reside permanently upon
the land
Homes are the foundation of a
nation. With clean, attractive,
pure homes the youth become strong,
upright, honorable citizens. Any
thing that may be carried out in
this three-year program that will
make the home better will tend to
improve citizenship.
The farm home should be an in
SEPARATION to better living, an in
ventive to strive diligently for the
highest ideals. To attain these
ends, not only must the physical
needs of the family be supplied mod,
erately well, but the home must be
attractive.
The foundation of this attractive
ness is the love among the members
of the household for better homes.
First get them awake to the needs
of their homes.
AS we drive down the country
road we come to a house where the
members of the family are not
awake to the needs of a real home.
1t is pitiful to see how the place is
totally devoid Of ornamentation, and
presents an unkept and even DESC
late appearance to the passers-by.
The entrance is almost anywhere
that the caller may elect. The drive
is a sprawling maze of tracks on
the bare hen scratched yard. Shrub
berry is totally lacking, the trees
being battered, and misused as
hitching posts. The straw of the
barnyard trails up to the very front
door of the house. 1t is pitiful, be-
cause the general appearance of the
place tells every passer-by that
within those walls lived a woman
whose natural love of beauty had

Sweet Potato
Industry Booms


MOULTRIE, Ga, May 4.-The
sweet potato plant industry around
Moultrie this season has attained
large proportions. 1t is estimated
that more than 100000 potato
plants have been shipped from Col.
quit within the past few weeks.
Some of these sold for as high as
$3.50 per 1000. The average price
was more than 81 per 1000.
The shippers declare that there is
good profit in the bosiness. Some
confusion, however, grew out of ig-
norance of the regulations governing
the inspection of potatoes before
they are bedd~3 in order to deter
mine whether or not they are free Of
disease.

What About Cotton

With the risk about boil weevil
and the high price Of fertilizers, the
farmers of Georgia are much per-
picked about the wabbling price Of
cotton.
There seems to be no earthly rea-
son for low prices, except the meth
DDS Of the spectators to keep down
the price. The cotton mills of Eu-
rope are craving this cotton. The
New England mills are obliged to
have it, and the whole world needs
cotton goods to wear and utilize in
commerce and in merchandise. We
are beginning cotton crop under
many heavy risks as before said.
Why in the name of honesty and
common sense do not the merchants
buy up the cotton already ginned
and packed and ready to be sold.
Some day in the future we will see
a cotton famine. Look OUT

Dear Folks: This last mail has
brought me several questions about
child welfare. There's no subject
more interesting.
OF course, you see that the rules
say mo medical advice" but have
secured from the government a
splendid set of pamphlets on the care
of children that will help in prevent
ing so much of the illness that
means suffering and loss of life.
Surely that old saying, "An ounce
of prevention is worth a pound Of
cure" is true in the case Of the
baby. 1t is my purpose to give,
from time to time, beginning in one
of the early issues, some helpful
suggestions as to the baby's care
during the coming hot months. If
these suggest any questions, please
write to me, and if it comes within
our rules I will gladly answer.
Cordially,
