The farm home has more\ninducements to offer, if thc farmer\nwill but take advantage of the opportunities offered. Thc city and its\nhome cannot compete with the farm.\nIn the country you can have_ every\nmodern convenience offered in the\ncity, and in addition, the freedom of\nthe country, its healthful surroundings and its unexcelled food stuffs.\nWhat more can one want?\nHome water works should bring\nwith it thc bath room with all its\nfacilities, a good roomy bath tub\nto replace the old wash tub or wash\nbowl by the kitchen stove. How\nmany bovs and girls havc wished\nfor a good, big splash in plenty of\nwater instead of the \"teaspoon bath -\nfrom a wash bowl by thc side of. the\nstove. The boys- go to the creek\nbecause of their love of plenty of\nwater and a good swim. Why not\nrun the creek through thc house and\ngive the girl an equal show with the\nboy at a decent sized body of water,\nnot only in thc summer but in the\nwinter as well. Thc old folks will\nalso appr: -iale the bath room with\nall its conveniences. And think of\nthc convenience when there is sickness in thc house.\nWith all these reasons for installing running water in our farm homes,\nit seems that the most vital one to-\ndav is that it will eliminate waste\nlabor.
