Miss Cammie A. Fludc
' -T' ' '" ' / ^ '1
There are 44 Negro families on
the project at Orangeburg and 25
on the Tiverton ^project in Sum
ter county. All of these families
are taught better practices in home
making by Miss Fludd. .
The main object of the program
is to raise the standards of living
- among low income rural families
We can truly say that this h
being done on the above named
projects. When the project started
in 1938 a accurate check was
made on each family. This was
vv uvvviillilic tuc ilt'CUS U1 Ult
families, in order that the work
to be done could be centered around
these particular needs.
When the families of Orangeburg
Farms Project moved on theii
units in 1938 there were only G2
quarts of canned l'ood among tin
entire 44 families. At -the--end oJ
the canning season these samt
families yielded an average of 301
quarts per family.
The year 1939 found thee fam
ilies advancing on the program
mors and more. At the end ol
that year 407 quarts were cannC/
per family. " I
Each family occupies a new ]
home with all modern outhouses
They are "given instruction in the
proper care of their homes and
surroundings. Emphasis is also
placed on the importance of having
a good year-round garden.'' In
fact, each family is required to
grow and produce enough food to
adequately take care of the members
of the household.
Exterior and Interior decoration
are given proper consideration.
The supervisor?has_done an excellent
job in helping the families
?to" beautify" ~ their homes. This
has been done by the use of native
shrubbery for foundation
planting and blooming perennials.
Each and every home on the
project has been beautified and
all lawns grassed.
Visitors come from far and
near to see how these homes were
transformed into places of beam
ty.
With the soundness of the Horn*
Management program, under the
efficient leadership of Miss Fludd,
Orangeburg Farms project i s
bound to be onel of the leading
prbjects in the region.
AT HOME
Mr. Geo. H. Hampton, publisher
