Housing Aspects of Resettlement
IT HAS been estimated that more than one third of all houses in the United States are definitely obsolete and substandard. The inadequate lot is regarded to include five million farm and six million nonfarm structures.1 The homes in this classification are held to be dilapidated, damp, or overcrowded, with lack of sunlight, air, piped-in water, or proper sanitation. Although this estimate may seem high or not well founded, due in part to lack of …
Some Adjustments of Farm Families to Emergencies
In order to learn something of the functioning of farm families which are confronted by emergencies, a study was made of the conditions in 1929 and again in 1932 of more than 100 Wisconsin families. Sharp reductions in income, owing mainly to reduction in receipts, necessitated for these families marked adjustments in their consuming habits and their participation in certain activities. That these adjustments are akin to fully as far-reaching adj…
Can Standards of Living Be Rated from Observation
In order to obtain what might be a usable scheme for determining the actual prevailing standards of living for farm families, a study was made of 900 farm families in Wisconsin.

Comparison of Two Scales for Measuring the Cost or Value of Family Living
Zimmerman's adult male equivalent scale and Kirkpatrick's cost-consumption unit scale are here used for measuring the cost or value of family living and the results compared. Using 104 families in Crozet, Virginia, the writers found a correlation of .93. With 33 extreme cases eliminated, the correlation was .90. When measures obtained by each scale were correlated with a third variable, contradictory results appeared. The correlation between tota…

Joint Co-Operative Studies on the Economics and Sociology of Rural Life
The major problems dealing with farm life involve both the social and the economic aspects. Studies in either field must be augmented by a consideration of the outstanding factors in the other field. This can be best achieved through joint research projects in which both interests are represented and which are conducted on a truly co-operative basis. While the various phases of such a co-operative study will each have its particular aspect, still…
