The keynote to happiness on the farm or anywhere else is gond housckccpingâ€"everytliing clean, tidy and as it should be“. It is consider- cdimportant by many parents to have their girls trained carefully at school and college, but often they receive no systematic instruction in house work. It is just as much an accommlishmcnt to be able to cook as to do anything else. The meaning of the term “Domestic Science” is much many young women. Domestic Science means a practical knowledge of the affairs of the household based on scienti- fic principals. It includes a knowledge of ventilation, sanitation andeverything pertaining to the keeping of a house in a proper and healthy condition. There are more diseases caused by people- iiving, andospecially sleeping, in un- ventilated rooms in the winter, by carc- 'lcssncss in disposing of kitchen refuse and sweeping, and by the contamination of well water from the drainings from kitchens and barn yards, than by any- thing else. The most nutritious foods are the most easily prepared, yet many housekeepers spend so much time and energy making pies, cakes etc. that they are too tired to enjoy their meals or to , entertain their husbands at meal times. SHousework is monotonous, and women need recreation, of which the speaker knew of no better form than member- ship and attendance at the Women's In- stitutes. Mrs. Campbell concluded her remarks with some pointed suggestions ‘ to young men seeking life partners, and to young women in a like position, draw- ing attention to the essentials and nonl- ! essentials of domestic happiness. Mr. Kydd then gave an address on ‘ Dropped Stitches,’ in which he drew at- tention to the many ways in which the farmers might benefit themselves finan- cially or otherwise by doing things which they now leave undone or do ‘ : carelessly. One of' the greatest dropped ll :s-t-itches in a farmer's life, he said, was ' fnon-membership in the Farmers’ Instiâ€" tute, from which he can derive such great benefits at the expense of the 1- Governmcnt'. Another dropped" stitch with the average young farmer is his inability to tell the age of a horse by his teeth. Another was neglect on the part " ' of farmers to spray their potato planta- tions, and'so save them from destruction v ‘byblight. The farmer drops a stitch .when he fails to have a. small patch of each of the several kinds of small fruits which grow so well in this country, and which form such a great treat on-tl’ie table for several weeks in the summer. The .8th9; of inferior and dirty seed l‘ ygrai'n is another serious dropped stitch which could be easily picked up if the farmer would only take the trouble to grow his own seed. This could be casil y done, since, from a single selectcd'grain 4,, , of oats, enough could be grown in three ,Q : or four years tossed a large field". ‘ = The greatest dropped stitch on the I farm, however, was the mismanagement and thoughtlessness which drove the young men off the farm to work in the cities for barely enough wages to keep them alive. The farm has many advan- farms he had seen, he would get olI them if he had to go barefoot. Too many farm- ers treat their sons and daughters with less consideration than they do their , cattle, and continue to regard and treat them as children for years after they how old he may be at that time ? The boys and girls on the farm should any time with townspeople. without be- of lifc as any other class of people, and should have them. At the evening meeting musical selec- tions were given by Mrs. F. N. Ruther- foi'd‘, Miss Ruby Austin, Miss Marjory McDougall and Miss F. C. Brandbm. the two former rendering vocal solos and the two latter violin selections, all of which. it is needless to say, were much enjoyed. Free Courses in Agriculture at Lindsay.
