In those days there were many other demands on a farmer's wife, such as canning all sorts, of fruits, making clothes for the children and baking, which today even many of the thriftiest wives of farm refuse, to do. Then, too, other things were different.

She believes that if one thinks right she will do right and that being-the case there will be no need for worry. Then too, she is a firm believer In thrift and keeping within the length of ones purse strings. She believes that the young people of today worry more about spending their money than they do about making it, and above all she abhors the- thought bf young women working. She thinks all young women should marry, have a family and let their husbands earn the living; but that it Is equally necessary for the wife to circumscribe the family's desires.
