EGGS AND POULTRY 
SO MANY ELEMENTS enter into the ship¬ 
ping of day-old chicks and eggs by our ad¬ 
vertisers, and the hatching of same by our

buyer unbroken, nor can they guarantee the 
hatching of eggs. We shall continue to exer¬ 
cise the greatest care in allowing poultry and 
egg advertisers to use this paper, but our re¬ 
sponsibility must end with that.

water boiled in five minutes. The price 
is about $9. 
Cooking equipment, like everything 
else, must be kept simple. A tin cup, 
plate, knife, fork and spoon for each 
person together with two or three dishes 
to cook the food in over the fire or on 
the stove, all of which will pack and 
nest together, is all that the average 
person will need. Outfits may be pur¬ 
chased which contain everything needed 
for cooking in a single case. One such 
outfit for two people contains one 7- 
pint cooking pot, one 10-pint cooking 
pot, one 4-pint coffee pot, one frying 
pan, two plates, two dessert spoons, 
two cups, two soup bowls, two knives, 
two forks and two teaspoons. 
Other tools that will be necessary for 
any camper, in addition to the regu¬ 
lar repair and adjustment implements 
for the car, are some kind of a camp 
axe, a shovel and a hunting knife. 
The car will have'its own lights, but 
an adjustable spotlight will also be 
found satisfactory and a good lantern 
will also come handy. 
Other Conveniences 
There are a lot of other conveniences 
that may be added, one of which is a 
refrigerator basket, but we would ad¬ 
vise against taking on too much equip¬ 
ment at first until one learns by ex¬ 
perience just what is needed to get the 
’most fun. One of the best parts of 
the trips are the pleasant memories 
recalled by photographs, so “Kodak 
as you go.” 
Speaking of a complete camp out¬ 
fit, Mr. Long says: “An auto camper 
who has been at the camping game for 
the past ten years, who has kept at 
week-end camping right along and who 
has crossed the continent a couple of 
times, camping along the route, has 
out of his long experience reached this 
as his standard outfit. He takes an 
“Auto. Bed” with a 7 x 7' tent; a six- 
pound cotton pad or mattress for the 
bed; a two-burner gasoline camp stove; 
one heavy double blanket; one wool- 
filled quilt; a blanket roll; two eight- 
quart milk cans for water; and a re¬ 
frigerator basket. The whole affair 
packs into very small space.” 
A party of four Ohians from Cleve¬ 
land took a twelve-hundred-mile motor 
camping trip through their own and 
one or two adjacent States, at a cost 
of about one dollar a day each. The 
outfit which they used, which made 
them very comfortable, was as fol¬ 
lows : 
Keep Baggage Down 
“Personal baggage was kept down 
to the lowest possible amount. Two 
double suit cases rode on the baggage 
carrier, and two large duffle bags were 
placed in front of the suit cases. 
They also carried a tool outfit, in¬ 
cluding a spade, hatchet, pick-ax, and 
a coih of strong rope; also the usual 
repair kit for car and tires. The out¬ 
fit just described weighed two hundred 
and fifty pounds. This list was found 
to meet every requirement and was 
easily packed in the car. 
“In addition to the articles already 
named the following items were also 
carried: one canvas tent 8% feet 
square, one A tent 8 by 10 feet, four 
folding stools and cots, blankets, 
ponchos and pneumatic pillows, two 
watei’proof duffle bags, canvas water 
bottle, folding water bucket and basin.

Caifipers should always plan to take 
plenty of warm clothing, including wool 
under-clothing. 
When it comes to buying camp equip¬ 
ment, there are the large mail-order 
houses, which carry quite a large 
variety, the merits of which can be 
studied from the catalogs in nearly 
every farm home. There are several 
large camp equipment manufacturers 
that make everything the camper needs 
and there are also army stores in most 
cities where most of the material can 
be found at reasonable prices. 
All that we can hope to do in an 
article of this kind is to give you a 
suggestion. If you are really interested, 
we .would suggest that you get Mr. 
Long’s book for more details, or talk 
with some experienced camper in your 
own neighborhood. If we have suc¬ 
ceeded in creating interest in a few 
more farm families in this splendid way 
of getting some much needed rest and 
recreation, then this article has been 
worth while. _ _ 
A Plea For Better Under¬ 
standing 
(Continued from page 518) 
and that all his calling needs is a large 
dose of business methods. I want to 
tell you that the farmer is the uncon¬ 
scious heir to a great heritage of skill 
and practical knowledge, and that he 
already conducts his business so effi¬ 
ciently that anyone else who tries it is 
pretty sure to arrive at bankruptcy 
unless he has outside resources. 
Sometimes these self-appointed effi¬ 
ciency experts are pleased to compare 
the per acre yields of American and 
European or -Asiatic farms, and there¬ 
by cause the American farmer to ap¬ 
pear in a most discouraging light. As 
a matter of fact, if judged by the food 
units produced per man (not by bush¬ 
els per acre), the American farmer is 
the best and most efficient farmer in 
all the world. 
Relatively, we are declining in num¬ 
bers. There are six and one-half mil¬ 
lion heads of farm families in the 
United States. There are almost a 
quarter of a million farmers in New 
York State. Yet, in this State only 
one man out of ten lives directly from 
the soil. We are surely dependent upon 
you, but you cannot live without us. 
Let us be friends and neighbors and 
comrades. 
I am told that the membership of the 
Chamber of Commerce of Rochester 
includes some 600 farmers who live on 
the fat farms which lie around that 
beautiful city. This is because a far- 
seeing Secretary has come to realize 
that Rochester is a widespread commu¬ 
nity and not a walled town, and that it 
includes many business men whose 
plant is under the-'open sky and rfot 
beneath a roof or within brick walls. 
I wish very earnestly that-I had time 
and wisdom so that i might plead in 
worthy fashion for a better and closer 
sympathy and appreciation and under¬ 
standing between the folk of the city 
and the folk of the farm.
