place, as well as dealer’s name is blown 
in a bottle, communities where there 
is much tourist traffic are apt to find 
on their doorsteps, delivered by the 
milk dealers, bottles that came in auto- 
mobiles hundreds and thousands of 
miles. And, alas! the bottles do not 
always hold the same quantity for a 
quart and, occasionally, a surly milk 
peddler refuses to make a swap—which 
only adds to the zest of the traveling. 
There are a few places, a few stores, 
where the tourist will receive stale 
bread, or eleven for the dozen, and the 
worst of the bargain, generally. We 
ran into such a town in Kentucky and 
another in Iowa—there are a few in 
every state, probably, or at least in 
eastern and southern states. 
HE tourists on the highways trade 
information about stores, dealers, 
communities. Some towns on the main 
thoroughfares are losing thousands of 
dollars trade during the summer 
months, merely by their not having 
camping parks. Objection to having 
parks for tourists is generally backed 
by garages, which want night rentals, 
restaurants, which hate meals cooked 
outdoors, and hotels which seek to force 
tourists into dinners, beds and break- 
fasts. 
The fact of the matter is, tourists 
know these places. They scurry 
through them, making long runs to 
dodge them. They simply won’t pa- 
tronize them, and they do seek the com- 
munities where camp grounds and con- 
veniences are provided. In those towns 
they go to the restaurants for “store 
meals.” They go to the hotels for the 
occasional “bedrooms and baths,” and 
they go to the garages there for parts, 
repairs and gas, oil and tires. 
HE more experienced tourists often 
resort to the plan of one meal in 
a restaurant a day. This is usually 
the “regular dinner” at noon, which 
they can obtain in an hour, whereas 
the same meal would take nearly two 
hours to prepare in the open. When 
in a hurry, as running on a daily mile- 
age schedule, this extra hour is im- 
portant. It saves a good deal of bother 
when the weather is stormy, too. We 
found, in fleeing before the autumnal 
rains the length of Tennessee and Ar- 
kansas, that restaurants saved the 
equivalent of ten to twenty miles a day 
—we made that many more miles by 
taking restaurant meals when they 
were convenient, as at noon, or when 
we had the choice of getting a meal 
in the dark, or at a table in town. 
Fruit should always be a part of the 
tourists’ menu. Apples, oranges, lem- 
ons, or the like, must be had, even at 
some little expense. Touring condi- 
tions are irregular and disturbing. 
Fruit does more to keep one in good 
health than medicine.
