How To Avoid Hessian Flies Ob
Wheat.
I am preparing to sow wheat before
the middle of October and some say
that it is too soon, as the Hessian
Fly will attack it. What is the Hes
sian fly, and what does it do."
It is always best to wfcit till there
has been a white frost before sowing
wheat, as the frost checks the fly.
The Hessian fly is an ihsect that lays
eggs in the base of the wheat and the
worm-like Insect eat the wheat stalks
A finally go into the pulp or dormant
state in the base of the plants and
come out perfect flies in the spring
and lay more eggs and hatch more
larvae to eat the wheat. Wheat sown
after frost is seldom attacked.?The

Why Household Economics Should be
In Public Schools.
The following splendid paper was
read before the Rutherfordton Co.
teachers Ass'n in their Oct meet
ing by Mrs. Rosamond Ragsdale, who
is teaching Household Economics in
the Graded school of Rutherfordton.
It received many compliments there
and is worthy of the careful reading
of the entire public. The pape? fol
lows:
The Woman who presides over her
household should consider as one of
her most important functions tho
purchase of food and it's storage pre.
limenary to its use in .the kitchen
more attention to this one thing must
be given by the .woman who lives in
the county, if intelligence and care
are lacking, money will be lost, food
less wholesome, the table much less
attractive than it should be. Scientific
research has thrown much light on
many processes concerned, whereby
the householder may be benefitted.
The health and efficiency of the family
is the chief objects of her care, and
its end well worth the effort"
"Efficiency" seems to be the slogan
of the business would today, men are
everywhere discussing It Efficient en
gineers ar? being sent into shop and
factory to make observations, and by
these observations build up the effi
ciency of that $bop or factory, there
by saving time and money for the em
ployer and giving the employees shor
?tfer .hours and more money. '
By applying these efficiency princi
ples Manufacturers are enable to
save a great many dollars per day.
"Brandetis in his famous railroad
rate hearing in Washington showed
that if the railroads vo*44=york un
der conditions of scientific manage
ment they could save -a- million dol
lars a day." ?^
Perhaps there is one older saying in
the world than Woman's work is done
But if the principles of efficiency can
be successfully carried out in busi
ness why can't they be carried out in
the home? To carry out in the nome
the efficiency movement is the object
of Household Economics.
The problem, the real issue of
home-keeping comforts the middle
class woman with the present high
cost of living, to know what foods
really are; what elements they con
tain, so that she may select wisely the
most nutritious ones, know how to
prepare them so that no food elements
is lost and that there is no waste. The
servant questions make efficient
housework not only a comfort but an
aibsolute necessity. -
"Only one family in ten of this mid
dle class employs help, fewer women
are entering service every year, new
professions are dally being opened to
women who formerly confine their
work to service alone. That is there
are fewer servants and will continue
to be less. Their Wages will also
be much higher. If the total num.
bee of families, including all classes
In the United States today only (8)
eight per .cent employ help.
To reach these servantless homes,
to help ihese hoqjeswe must tralir
the children through the greatest
known medium, our publbic schools.
Efficiency ?oes not necessarily mean
an expensive equipment, impratlcal
theories, but simple principles, which
enable one to aid evefy homekeeper
to do her household duties in the best
way,-with the least effort and still
yield' her abundant success.
We should begin, first to teach the
children the Economical use of time,
material etc., In every branoh of their
work.' To Economize in time, we
should plan well each point before un
dertaking the task.
Possibly the average public school
Is not not fitted by reason of Its crow
ded course of study to do more than
ihoretlcal work In Household Econo
mics. .
*? "Food is thf largest Item in the fam
llly budget" As a purchasing agent the
sL: ?
I housewife mast know food values:
what foods possess these values;
something of the metrltive principles
she should also know as well, the part
each food plays in the building of the
human body. If she does not know

She should know what foods will

diet: what some healthful, meat sub
stitutes are, and know the nutritive
value of various kinds of bread, vege
tables and cerals. This knowledge
will nable her to buy foods Intelli
gently, so that her family may be
nourished with a varied diet at a
moderate cost. By knowing the cost
of foodstuffs, she will know whether
the price she Is paying comes within
her Income. Too often the money spent
for food is entirely out of proportion
Xo the Income, and to the amount
spent for other things, such as cloth

but little expense and be just as nour

breads, and ten ways of serving pota.
toes. Many other things may be enu
merated In the same way. Truly the
economical relation of woman to the
rest of the world Is a terribly real
thing and a live responsibility.
Now then, do the mothers wish their
daughter's trained In this, woman's
great work, of homemaklng or. are
they merely to receive culture? This
Is a vital question, which we as tea
chers mnst help to solve, with the
mother Is the decision, with us how it
Is to be done.
Domestic Science and Art in our
public nchpolB comes the answer loud
and clear.
We all know says a prominent wri
ter that there are two opinions on this
subject swaying the school and Col
leges of .our country today,. One says
that a girl should not waste the pre
cious limited time she can speffd In
High school or College study
ing cooking cleaning and home
making, which li ? says the
mother may teach her or
safely leave to her Intention and gen
eral Intelligence that In this precious
time in school she should get nearer
.to the great minds of the eages closer
to the great minds of the ages closer
history, music and art.
The other side claims her to be a
being endowed with human feeling
and provided with definite lfne of work
, In Ufa by.the great Creator of the uni
verse. That we owe to her to give
her the practical and theorttlcal train
ing poBslblbe for her future life's
work.
This theory also holds that every
woman is inherently a homemaker. it
also holds that homemaklng Is not a
simple kind of knowledge, which can
be left to chance, but that It la a study
brimful of opportunity to apply the
hlgheat kind of knowledge, science,art
and all the (deals of culture and edu
cation. These educations Insist that
our daughters will be bettor wives and
mothers, happier homemakers If they
are taught definitely how to apply
their art, their literature, their biology
their Chemistry to problema they will
face later. Why ahould we teach a
gfrl, art without showing practically
how to bring It Into the decoration and
fornlahlng of-her home? Why teach
her chemistry wlthbut teaching the
chemical changes caused In cooking,
and the right and wrong combinations
.of (oods? Why teaoh her botany with
out telling her a knowledge of the
yeast plant will enable her to make
good bread? Why teach her socology
and economics without showing her
how to manage her home finpees
and telling her ot her relation as a
purchasing agent to the great world
of business. Why may we ask why
teach her psychology without teaching
her to train the minds of children.
We can teach the practical work of
home economies without sacrificing
the cultural, let us then be up and
doing. .
Through our public schools, it
must be done out of our
efforts there" is bound to come
a wider, greater interest and
the natlon> will be brought toward the
efficiency standard at which nil man'3
endeavors and activities are so test
fully aiming and working.
