We have had this in Bartow for a number of years and while it has done untold good to individual homes and persons, many of the people of the county do not know of it or realize its value to the county. A few outside people have been immensely interest ed in the work but we need the entire county to wake up and watch and help this work along. The Gills’ Demonstration Work in the south began with the Canning Clubs in 1910, when four counties in two states were organized. Nearly 50,000 girls were enrolled in 1915 un der the supervision of 400 women agents iii the fifteen southern states. The enrollment for 1914 was 33,173. In 1914, 7, 1 93 members put up 2,091,- 237 pounds of tomatoes and other veg etables from their tenth acre gardens. Tnese products were put into 1,198,- 024 cans, jars and other containeis, and they are estimated to be worth $244,880.81, of which nearly $200,000 is profit. The average estimated profit per member was $23.30. Furthermore these girls put up hundertls of dollars worth of other products from the farm and orchards. Club members are learn ing how to make out reports and these statistics will j)e fuller as the work develops. It will be remembered by some that the first demonstration held in Georgia by a woman agent was held at the Cass Station Model School by Miss Mary E. Creswell, who is now connected with the TJ. S. Department of Agriculture. The Canning Club work in Bartow county has been very valuable since its beginning. It has been managed by the persons who have assisted the county superintendent with the school work. This has worked very well in deed since both lines are strictly edu cational. Both of these branches have grown to such an extent that it is im possible for the one having the Home Demonstration work in charge to do the work as it should be with the oth er duties. Our County Board of Educa tion who is always awake to the edu cational needs of the county employed some one for the Home Demonstra tion Work with the girls and women at their last meeting in 1916. The work will be as closely connected with the school work as ever. This must be, if the work succeeds as it is intended. The Canning Club Girls’ work which first started wi'h the girls having a tenth acre in tomatoes, has not only grown from tomatoes to other vegeta bles but from the girls to the women. We have not done so much directly with the women before as we intend to now. Many women are engaged in the Home Demonstration Work, learning to make and use conveniences that cost little but save much labor. We need to know why we do things in or der that we may enjoy our work. The reason we call house work “drudgery" is because we do not know why we do things and do not know how to do GiRLSi DRAW A MOIST CLOTH THROUGH HAIR, DOUBLE ITS BEAUTY Try This! Hair Gets Thick, Glossy, Wavy and Beautiful at Once. Immediately ? Yes! Certainly? that’s the joy cff it. Your hair becomes light, wavy, fluffy, abundant and ap pears as soft, lustrous and beautiful a a young girl's after a Danderine haif cleanse. Just try a cloth with a little Danderine and care fully draw it through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. This will cleanse the hair of dust, dirt or exces sive oil, and in just a few moments you have doubled the beauty of your hair. A delightful surprise awaits those whose hair has been neglected or is scraggy, faded, dry, brittle or thin. Pesides beautifying the hair, Dander ine dissolves every particle of dan druff; cleanses, purifies and invigor ates the scalp, forever stopping itch ing and falling hair, but what will p’eas-e you most will be after a few weeks' use, when you see new hair— fine and downy at first —yes —but real ly new hair growing all over the scalp. It you care for pretty, soft hair, and lots of it surely get a 25-cent bottle of Knowlton’s Danderine frota any drug store or toilet oounter and just try it. —(advt.) them in a way to save ourselves un necessary work. There is no use in a woman lifting a ton of water a day but the average lurm woman dogs it and usually com plains about it. If she does not com plain she should. There is no use in a woman standing over the hot stove in the summer time worrying her life out in canning but the average woman does it and usually complains about it. Why not do these and other things In a better way and enjoy it? We would live longer and our home would be more pleasant. “Although the world may be crowd ed, there will always be room to ex cel, for the one who does common du ties, if he does them uncommonly well.” The Board of Education has selected me for this place in Bartow county for the year 1917. I am asking of all of you that you give me your unquali fied support this year in this great work, If you have a daughter or wife "ho wants to take part in this work please encourage her for we women are interested in this only because it helps our homes, thereby helping man kind. Below will be found a report of the Home Demonstration Work for 1916. The most valuable/part of such work can not be told or put on paper. -Number years work has been in county 6 Number months agent has been employed this year 8 Canning Club Girls enrolled this year 79 Number reporting 60 Tenth Acre Summary Total yield in pounds 12,797 No. cans, jars, etc 1,093 Total val. of all club products $ 300.00 Average cost of production per tenth acre $ 6.71 Average cost of canning per tenth acre 59 Average profit per tenth acre $11.67 Name, address and record, in yield 'and profit, of girls making first and second best record jn Bartow in 1916: Lethie Fletcher, Cartersville, R. F. D. No. 3, 1,056 pounds. Total grade 88 per cent. Edna Guyton, Cartersville, R. F. D. No. 3, 1,650 pounds. Total grade 78 1-2 per cent. 15 girls have made the entire uni form. 20 other girls have made their uniform aprons. The members have been organized in clubs in most of the schools, some ot them hoMing regular meetings dur ing the year. Sixteen women did work in connec tion with this department last year. Six tireless cookers, six iceless re frigerators, fifteen homes have been screened, one wheeled tray, one sew ing screen, one milking stool have been made under the direction of this department. Approximately, there have been 2,000 cans and jars put up under dem onstration methods. Besides the county premiums, JLethie Fletcher won second premium in the state contest on her fig exhibit. On account of the weather condi tions last year our yields were not so large but the glade of work was fat above the average. Up to the present we have been do ing, largely, canning but now we are beginning to do some jellying and pre serving. I have several girls who have done very efficient work, and who are trying to put themselves through high school with their work. We believe this is a better way than many others for our girls to make their way. If the people of Bartow county, who buy these things will patronize these girls they will not only be helping some one who is trying to help themselves ir. a worthy purpose. We guarantee our goods. We use no preservative ex cept heat which is perfectly safe. If at any time there may be found any thing wrong with any of the goods l not only ask but insist on being told of it. That is the only way we may raise the standard. Please see me and give me orders for jellies and preserves as well as canned goods for 1917. Call at the court house and let me show you the girls’ I will still be in __ the office of the county superintendent of education and will work with him and in co-operation with the United States Department of Agriculture. Let me insist on you taking advant age of tlft work being offered you by the board of education and the U. S. Department and in so doing help your selves and others.
