The following computer-generated description may contain errors and does not represent the quality of the book.
This handbook of practical housekeeping is offered to women in the hope that it may show in some measure how to reduce tasks in the home and how to save time, money, and energy. This book will be of oiirect help to the many women who do their own work or supervise household employes and who are seeking guidance by consulting reference books as other professional workers do. The book is the outgrowth of many years of experience in housekeeping and in teaching housewifery to groups of practical housekeepers, with emphasis upon the technical processes of the home. It is designed to help not only the individual home woman but to serve as a text for study groups of rural extension and other clubwomen and in the housekeepers courses given by schools and colleges. Any further study of the sciences, directly or indirectly connected with housewifery, may be carried on by means of the references suggested throughout the book. Because of the many requests from former students, who are now teachers, for a book that brings housewifery topics within one cover, the author offers these suggestions from her experience. It is hoped that the outline of courses, the bibliography, and the suggestions for laboratory supervision will meet the need so often expressed by teachers. The prices stated in the book are merely to give relative value, and can not be considered as definite in any locality. It is with much appreciation that the author acknowledges assistance in reading the manuscript to Dr. B.R. Andrews, Teachers College; Miss Matilda J.McKeown, formerly Instructor of Housemfery, Teachers College; and Professor Emma H.Gunther, Department of Household Administration, Teachers College. L.Ray Baldehston. (Vtober, 1918.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
