three out of each of the four homes
studied. Many received more than
one.
The vast majority of farm papers
'ere published In Nebraska or neigh
boring states.
Next to the children, the housewife,
especially of tenants, is least well pro
vided with reading matter, the survey
snows. Only Bixteen different women's
magazines were reported In 304 of
tho 1,034 homes Investigated. Enough
homes receive more than one woman's
magazine to bring the average to
three out of every four farm homes
without a woman's magazine.
An almost total absence of period!
cals for the use of the younger mem
bers of the family was disclosed. Only
four children's publications with but
thirty-one subscriptions reached the
1,034 homes, less than one paper in
thirty-three homes. Sunday school
papers probably make up a r"Tt of
the difference.
