STAT E D E MON 5T >1 AT!CN AGENT SUBMIT V Annual Keport lor Miss Christine X. South, the state home demonstration agent, has submitted to President Johnson of Y*"inthrop coilege her report for 1 (J2i '*overing the activities of the er.tr-1- personnel of the staff, which ia?t year included, in addition to th<- ornce force. ?.G white county agents, 12 col ore: agents, .'? district agents, < ists. " The reports of the work of the county home demonstration agents ;re most gratifying. It has been a year of achievement, a year of meeting emergencies. The work in the counties has grown in popularity. Never before hnve the people realize I - - x^ /Inm tvi >o Miuruugiiij Lu<4i. a nuinc ? tion agent is a necessity and not a iuuxury. Possibly the greatest achievement of the year has been the development of the marketing system for disposing of the surplus products of home garden, orchard, dairy and poultry yard. The marketing system consists ~nrs nnnvor nvnHlli'i!}? 2?1(1 yj L U1C UWyVlMV* ? V K' 0 marketing association known as the South Carolina Home Producers* association made up of home demonstration club members and 23 club markets, conducted on curbs or in buildings. According to the report of the mar keing specialist, the demon station lystem has enabled the farm women system has enabled te farm women and girls to sell during this first year n which the marketing system is in its infancy more produce than home demonstration work has cost the state of South Carolina in 1921. This is in addition to what has been produced that was used at home. The state of South Carolina spent last year for lome demonstrtion work ?64,647.74. The women and girls sold through the marketing system instituted by the organization $99,715.64. a gain to the state in this item of $35,067.90. Ranking a close second in importance in the year's achievements is the development of the woman's councils. With 17 countv councils organized at the end of 1920 and 33 ' 1 X J 1 A O f 4- -v*? rl AC" I"* O TTi at rne ena 01 j;ieai stuucr? n??v been made. With the federation of these councils into a state council of farm women, the farm woman has taken her place in the organized womanhood of the state. She is developing leadership and realizing her potential power. It has been most gratifying to watch her awaken l<> ho1* possibilities. There were "-14 Wonvnv- H ?;^:e Demonstration clubs organized in the state with a membership of (5.121. The total enrollment in all Girls' clubs in the state during: the year amounted to 4,904. Thei-e were 540 - - m ? -i t clubs in the counties, mese ciuos have held re?rul?:r monthly meetings.; A record of all club activities is kept by each member, and at the close cf: the year these records are sent to the state office. A yearly certificate is fivpn those who have made an aver ri"" ~ 1 age of 75 per cent or more on tinyear's work. 528 certificates have been awarded for 1921. Diplomas arp driven for the completion of the four years' course. Briefly summarizing the food am! nutrition department of home demonstration work, the state biscuit coni test and nutrition classes are the outstanding features. The biscuit con-' test has definitely reached more than , one thousand girls, while the nutrition classes are teaching the children the necessity of right living in both : health and food habits. Af present.! "ihere are twelve organized classes in; the state and plans are to organize 'v>r?rc? With "patablp bread'' and tight living combined, malnutrition, now so prevalent, should soon be a thing of the past. The dairy work has emphasized the work in the improvement of farmmade butter used in the home as well as that sold on the local market.

We ha j also taught the food value of milk and the need for its more general use for the children. That the household management work has meant much to our women by making their work a pleasure instead of a drudgery is shown by the expressions from some of those benefited. One woman writes: I feel the improvement in my kitchen, makes my work so much easier." Another says. "I never knew my housework could be made so easy and so pleasnnt/' anri vet another. ".Mv kitchen is fo improved the rest of the house must be done over to <ro with it." Do not these expressions prove that women are finding the care of their homes more attractive and that those things which add zest and are worth while are being brought to them. Girls' Sewing clubs have proved mrti nnnnlar in Smith Carolina the past year, as indicated by the larg'e mm.' _<- .*0** W - vm^w"Ky>wrm??i wtn.ywi wi -mmm < ! ; . oi! of . is c nrcllerl.

TVs. included the renovation of wails, floors, :m ; furniture, and the addition of attractive dr:. series, rue:? and ..ictures. "Belter Poultry" and "The Marl:c ti^c: of Standard Products" have lieen the two phases emphasized in the poj'try wo k this year. Enthusiastic interest has been manifested or. the part of both women and the itiris in their respective projects. Progress has been shown by the number of communities working along certain definite lines for the promotion of the poultry industry. One definite aim has been to introduce pure bred stock into the farm flock so ks to put it on a paying basis. The breeders of the state have gladly cooperated with us for the improvement of the farm flocks and as a result f many mongrel flocks have been dis1 posed of and pure bred flocks have been introduced in'their places, i i Primarily the object of home demonstration work this year has been to enable the farm woman to become resourceful in her home through the using easily available materials, therefore, in the food production and con servation work, we focused on the following products to be standardized: ; Plum jelly?because plums grow wild; fig preserves, because of abundance 1 and popularity of the commodity; ar tichoke pickle, because of easy culture < and preference; meat and vegetable stews because of economy, food value ' nrrl nnnniarifv Rpsnlrs nf fhpsp rmr- I suits give gratifying statistics. | The full report of the activities of < the department may be secured by ' writing the state home demonstration agent, Winthrop college, Rock Hill, ' South Carolina.
