Water, Light, Heat,
Raise Living Standards
Raleigh, N. C. Dec The greatest
savers of time and energy for the
farm housewife of North Carolina
would be the establishment of run
ning water, electric light current and
heating systems, in the farm homes
of the state.
"If we could place just these three
things in every home in North Caro-i
lina, we would see the standard of
living rise, so fast, it would be diffi
cult to catch its skirt's as it passed
by," says Mrs. Jane S. McKimmon,
assistant director of extension at State
college. '"These are the greatest time
savers that could be bestowed on the
housewife. Work is reduced tremen
dously when there is water in the
house. No useless trotting to pump
or hydrant and back again dozens of
times daily and no extra steps in
disnosing of waste water."
Thirty-three per cent of 40,000 coun
try women recently reported that thev
had. water piped to their kitchens and
47 per cent stated that they had it
on the back porch. This is the aver
age for the whole, country, states
Mrs. ' McKimmon, while North Caro
lina does not do so well. Out of
518 farm homes in this state, where
m inventory was made, only one-third
had a supply of water available at
To.the people of Macon County and to our customers

from without the county and to those beyond the State line;
we thank you for making the past year the best in our history
and we sincerely wish for you and yours during the Yuletide
and coming year "Peace and Good Will toward all men" and
all the Joys and Prosperity attendant thereon.

the house and less than one-fifth
of the 518, had water piped into
the kitchen and a sink installed.
The record of farm lighting plants
is better,' she states. Nearly all of
the 518 homes had such plants and
the state is up to the average in
this respect but each rural home
should have this power.
When it comes to heating plant;
most country i homes are heated by
wood-burning fireplaces or stoves. Few
homes have furnaces, Less than twe
per cent of the homes in 'the small
villages are so , equipped, the fur
nace saves much labor and gives a
more uniform heat over the whole
house. It also helps to keep down
sickness.
