CHICAGO «Lk> A plan ft
making the 35,000,000 travel vaca-
tions enjoyed annually by Amer-
icans, a quest for health instead of
just a sightseeing tour, has been
presented in the Journal of tne
American Medical Association.
Pointing out that the “incredible
but carefully estimated sum of
>5,000,000.000 is spent year!
vacational migrations," Dr. Cl
I. Singeer, Long Beach, N. Y., said
these vacations “lack conscious,
weU organised purpose and are
governed mostly by vogues, whims
and fads."
Dr. Singeer also believes the in-
stinctive motivating factor of these
mass migrations is a drive for
climatic change.
“America is fortunate to find
within its boundaries, an array of
specific climatic types; from Nor-
dic to subtropical, high attitudes
and deserts,” he saio.

BOYS CLUB MEETS
The Wm. Fenn <-H boys club
met Thursday, March 9, -with the
county agent, L. A. Sprain Shd the
sponsor, E. C. Kleinknecht. The
I discussion was on the care of a
brood sow and the tanning of
leather.
A brood sow should be fed a
normal amount of feed in order
for her to grow properly and give
. the best results with her first
litter of pigs. The house should be
constructed so it will have plenty
of ventilation and if possible a rail
on the inside for protection of the
pigs.
The tanning of leather is a very
simple process. It consists of a few
chemicals mixed with water where i
the hide is kept until the hair
comes off. The next step is to put
leat's foot oil and tallow on the
hide. After this process is finished
the leather is ready for use.
Those present at this meeting
were: Raymond, Melvin, Clarence,
Alfred and Walter Gaskamg^Har-
len Witte, James Brockemeyer,
Wilbert Horstmann, Gifford, Har-
ven and Dover Schroeder, Alfred

tler, Carl James Schwartz, Archie

Those absent were: Wilbert
Schroeder, Erwin Eickenhorst and
Walter Brockemieyer.
The meeting adjourned with
their next meeting date as the
second Thursday of the month.
