Elsa Liodstrom. home economics
adviser of the Royal Agriculture
Society at Halmstad, Sweden, is
visiting the. Texas A&M Campus
to study arid confer with the Ex
tension Service staff. V
Miss Lindstrom is here in the
official interest of tnh Swedish De
partment of Agriculture and the
Federation * of Swedish Farmers
Association, which employs hfer as
Home Economics Extension y\gent,
in Southeastern Sweden.
She has been in the United
States since May of last year dur
ing which time she has visitech
many of the eastern, central and
southern colleges and universities.
Miss Lindstrom arrived here from
Arizona and will go to Mississippi
from here. According'to her plans
she will return to Sweden in the
latter part of March after having
visited approximately 34 states.
American household equipment
is of particular interest to Miss
Landstrom. She thinks the Ameri
can housewife enjoys many Con
veniences which are unheard of in
Sweden. Rationing is still in effect
in Sweden and household articles
arc about fifty percent higher
there than they are in the United
States, Miss Lindstrom said.
This is her first trip to the
United States. Before the war
she visited many European coun
tries including Denmark, Po
land. Romania, Hungary, Ger
many. Norway, and Austria.
During her stay in the United
States Miss Lindstrom is reporting
back to Sweden by means of arti
cles which are published in twenty
newspapers and one ni^gazin|ej! 44*
