Book excerpt: Excerpt from Domestic Science: Principles and Application, a Textbook for Schools Domestic science in public schools, to be of greatest value, must give the pupils a practical knowledge of foods and the principles which underlie their preparation for the table, and at the same time train the pupils to apply the principles intelligently. This textbook is arranged to meet the needs of schools having a two-year course in Domestic Science, and an effort has been made to present the fundamental principles, together with their application, in a simple, natural sequence that is adapted to the needs of the large majority of public and private schools. A text of this kind does away with the keeping of elaborate notebooks on the part of the pupils, saves for more important things the time used in dictating notes, and makes the work more permanent and uniform throughout. The arrangement of the subject matter by lessons does not necessarily limit the course to 64 lessons. If the students are old enough, additional reading may be used to supplement the subject matter, and several recipes are given under each application to afford plenty of practical work for classes having more than one lesson each week. The usual length of the class period is 1 1/2 hours, and one recipe is all that can be done well in that time. The course begins with a preliminary lesson for organization and for acquainting the pupils with the kitchen, utensils, and the general instructions for working and care of equipment.
