I would stack them in the hook for the major mode where they
are intended to be used.

E.g., if I want `auto-fill-mode' and `abbrev-mode' (minor
modes) in `latex-mode' (major mode) I'd put it like this.

(defun latex-mode-hook-f ()
  (auto-fill-mode)
  (abbrev-mode) )
(add-hook 'latex-mode-hook #'latex-mode-hook-f)
