Before Mrs. Andersen had finished
this speech her husband had fiebed out
his much used pencil and began figur-

After a few moments he lifted his
head and replied, "Mrs. Chapman hit
it just about right, for this commun-
ity, at least. In the six sections where
I know all the farmers about twenty
per cent. have running water in their
homes."
And along this line be it said that
the percentage of farm homes with an
easily available water supply is bound
to increase rapidly. This twenty per
cent. is leavening the • Whole farm
population. With a better knowledge
of farm engineering these people have
come to know that the installation of
running water is possible under al-
most every condition and in a great
majority of homes no ,difficult prob-
lems are involved. •-
The percentage will grow also be-
cause running water is the key to the
introduction of many' of the conven-
iences which farm folks are new seek-
ing. The advent of the bathtub, the
indoor toilet, the kitchen sink, the hot
water heater, all more or lees depend-
ent upon running water, will not only
relieve the women folks of the farm
from much deudgery, but will also
give them a senseoflivingup to the
possibilities of the times,. And this
sense of pride is even a more import-
ant factor in the routine work of the
woelares life than it is in the more
varied work of men. .
