RECOMMENDATIONS 



In visiting rural sections of the State, one condition which was found 

 to need changing was that of the status of the girl and the woman on the 

 farm. It is believed that, until the woman's time is recognized as having 

 actual commercial value, very little will be done to give her greater 

 opportunities than she now has. Such a change could be stimulated by 

 establishing in the Department short courses that would provide technical 

 training along various lines especially adapted to farm women and girls. 

 It is recommended that when the departmental appropriation is asked for, 

 this be taken into account, as we believe it will prove to be the most 

 progressive piece of extension work in which the Department could 

 engage.
