Cheating the Junk-Pile: The Purchase and Maintenance of Household Equipments

Synopsis

This book is in no way intended to be a book on household efficiency, in the usual sense of the word—it is no religio-culinaris, no domestic Baedecker or home Taylor. It is merely meant to be a means to the purchase and care of the best household equipments and to be an instruction before not after the purchase is made. Further, it is meant to cheat the junk-pile, by inspiring the buyer to get the maximum advantage out of every purchase of the thing he buys and by the proper care of it after he gets it. It is a book which conspires against the aspiring junk heap in the yard or in the store-room.
