This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself.

We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Kittredge was born in Boston, Massachusetts on September 19, 1867. She was the daughter of the well-known and well-to-do Presbyterian pastor Abbott Eliot Kittredge.
Education public and private schools Founder, 1901, and president Association of Practical Housekeeping Center, New New York Inaugurated lunches in elementary schools of New York, 1908.
She was raised in New York City and lived there for most of her adult life. Kittredge advocated for school lunches and started the hot-lunch program in New York City public schools in 1901. Afterwards, she continued develop the program for the next two decades, finally succeeding in getting it funded by the Board of Education in 1920.
Kittredge became a household adviser because she believed in the importance of the home in national life and because she was shocked by the conditions in which many immigrants lived.
Like Christine Frederick, she aimed to improve household management in the United States, with a focus on making better, safer food and furnishings available to women with little money and teaching them up-to-date household management techniques. Under the umbrella title Association of Practical Housekeeping Centers, she established the first of several "model flats" in a New York City tenement in 1902, declaring: "If household administration is to take its place in the front rank with the other professions of the day, educators as well as women must wake up and realize that the whole housekeeping question is dependent upon scientific management, efficiency, skilled labor, and effective tools." Her 1911 book Housekeeping Notes: How to Furnish and Keep House in a Tenement Flat was a compendium of household management lessons taught in these centers, and her 1918 book The Home and Its Management offered practical advice on thrift in furnishing a home as well as in shopping for daily necessities.
She became the most famous home economist (also known then as home adviser) of her day. In 1915, she attended the International Women"s Congress for Peace and Freedom at the Hague.
She went overseas during World War I, working for Herbert Hoover and for the Commission for Relief in Belgium, heading up the child-feeding program in France and Belgium.
She saw her work for the war effort as analogous to her work on household management: both were forms of national service. Papers relating to Kittredge"s work with the Commission for Relief in the period 1915-1918 are held by the Hoover Institution Archives in Stanford, California.
