"Conservation of time an energy is obviously one of the problems of the housekeeper. Time and strength may be saved in two ways, first by taking thought as to the way one uses strength, and second by making use of labor-saving equipment. This may easily make the difference between a tired, overworked housekeeper and one who has some time and energy left for reading and recreation after the days work is done. Home convenience have already been installed in several thousand country homes under the direction of State and county home demonstration agents. This phase of demonstration work has not only effected a real saving in the work of the home, but it is helping the farm woman to get a greater amount of happiness out of her daily tasks. The household conveniences described in this bulletin have been selected because they may be made at a moderate cost by anybody a few simple tools and the ability to use them. Their use also yields a large return in comfort, economy, and sanitation. Valuable suggestions have been secured form State publications and county home demonstration agents."--P. 2
