Home Economics [PDF ebook] 
A Practical Guide in Every Branch of Housekeeping

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Home economics covers a vast field, to which nearly all the arts and sciences contribute. Few women have the time to devote to investigation and experiment in all the lines that bear upon the making of the home. In these days of specializing, it would take a large library and much time to cull from the various sources the kinds of knowledge that bear directly upon the making and the management of the home. The aim of this book is to supply such knowledge in a clear, practical, and concise manner.
