Wives of the Growers Tell How Hands Are Kept

That music in the home is as essential to the well-
being of the family as are the meals upon the table
is the declaration of one woman reader of the
"Prairie Farmer,'' a weekly farm journal published
in Chicago. That paper recently had a feature arti-
cle on "Music Makes Home Life Happier."
Communications from dozens of subscribers reveal
many uses to which music is put on the farm with
which the urban resident is not familiar.
On one farm the threshers are entertained during
the luncheon hour by strains from a phonograph
set up in the shade of a tree on the bank of a brook
which runs through the field.
"It is my experience that music, aside from a
good husband and the dear children, has contributed
more to the happiness of my married life than any-
thing else," writes Mrs. E. C. Cavins, of Coles coun-
ty, Illinois. On the birthday of each member of the
Cavins family the other members make it a practice
to give him a phonograph record. By this means
the record library is frequently replenished.
"I find," writes Emma Shula, of Will county, Illi-
nois, "that it is a great recreation for the hard-work-
ing men on threshing days to play a nice selection
of John McCormack or some one like that while
they are eating their dinner. It helps them to for-
get the hard work they have accomplished the first
half of the day."
