[In order to prevent visits from going too long, book] appointments closer together (travel time permitting) on the one night - e.g. 7:00, 7:30, 8:00, 8:30 - and inform the families you visit when the appointment is made and when you arrive for the visit that you only have half an hour, due to other appointments.
In Pres Benson’s “To the Home Teachers of the Church” pamphlet, based on the talk at General Conference you’ve quoted from, makes the point that visits shouldn’t be too long (obviously unless there are significant needs that a longer visit could address) - I certainly don’t want to be found disobeying a Prophet!
