Campaign for Use of Milk

MANIToWoC COUNTY IN FIGHT TO
BRING HEALTH TO CHILDREN THROUGH
THE USE OF MILK. MALNUTRITIoN OF
AMERICAN KIDDIEs HAS AROUSED
TREMENDOUS MOVEMENT.
The story of nation wide effort to
fight under nourishment in growing
children is fast gaining its way into the
American school of to-day, especially
in the state of Wisconsin, the leading
dairy state of the Union. This move
ment can be nation wide and real effect
i've if it receives the hearty cooperation
of smaller groups, such as counties,
which are made up of hundreds of dis
tricts. In talking about hundreds of
districts, have in mind primarily the
rural schools. Without the cooperation
of the teachers in these rural school
districts, such movement would fall
helpless in disgrace.
The cooperation in this nation wide
movement took root in Manitowoc
County during the month of April, last
spring, when the County Holstein
Breeders Association, held their annu-
al meeting. At that time lengthy
discussion relative to the carrying out
of dairy products campaign, culminat-
ed in the appointment of a committee
by the body in session, to see what
could be done. On this committee were
appointed Mr.. Hempke, secretary OF
the County Holstein Breeders Associa-
ton, Mr.. Carl Lindermann, of the
Northern Wisconsin Produce Company
and Mr.. II. r. Smith, County Agent.
In view of the fact that the schools
throughout the county would not be in
session much longer after the appoint
ment of the committee, very little more
than constructive thought was given
the movement until the schools resumed
their work this fall. On Thursday
evening, September 2lst, the above
named committee called together the
dealers in dairy products, from the
cities of Manitowoc and Two Rivers to
aid in the development of dairy pro-
ducts campaign. The result of the
meeting on September 2lst, was the
election of a permanent chairman and
secretary to head the campaign. Miss
Lillian Chloupek, County Superintend-
ent of Schools, was duly elected per-
manent secretary and Mr. Smith,
County Agent, permanent chairman.
A movement was carried to vest the
power of the appointment of an exc
cutive committee Of five, in the chair
man. The purpose of this committee
was. to serve as an advisory directory
and appoint any other committees that
they may see necessary, in the success
full carrying out of the campaign. The

committee appointed is as follows
August Schuette, M. H. Dempsey,
John Even, VIM. H. Pauly and Charles
Hempke. Full details have not yet
been worked out, but it is possible to
present in this article a short idea of
what has been proposed.
Tentative plans are to hold six cent
raj meetings during the week, the
definite date of which is not yet set.
| 1t is hoped that the campaign will take
place some time during the early part
of November. The six principal meet
| ing places will be the leading towns in
| the county, with the booster roundup
meeting at Manitowoc on the Saturday
of the week. By the use of posters,
moving pictures and other literature
and with the hearty cooperation Of the
u. S. Department of Agriculture and
the State College of Agriculture fur
nishing us with speakers, the value of
milk, butter, cheese ice cream as
human foods, will be thoroughly demon
strated The most important feature
of the campaign is to run poster con-
tests in the rural and city schools for
the purpose of enlisting the interest
and cooperation of not only the children
but their parents as well. Details re-
garding this contest .will be furnished
every teacher in Manitowoc County in
the very near future. The county will
be divided into sections The prizes in
J each section will be made worth while
enough to arouse the interest of every
school worker in the county. 1t is also
possible that essay contests and song
contests will be opened to the schools
as well. Without the support of the
rural and city teachers in the county,
such movement can never succeed.
The committees in charge realize that
the progress and perfectness of the
accomplishments in this tremendous
movement will depend upon the efforts
of the county workers at large.
Plans are expected to be perfected
later to make it possible for each boy
and girl of school age in the county to
attend at least one of the six central
meetings. We are planning to make
Manitowoc County Dairy Products
Campaign Week the largest of any
ever held in the state of Wisconsin in
fact so large that we will receive
national comment. We have perfect
corps of teachers and other bodies CO.
operating in this movement and there
is no reason why we can't make ours

relative to this campaign will be gladly
received by our secretary, Miss Chou
PEEK, or the chairman.

TAKES CASE OUT OF STATE

Ray Meyers, for some time charac-
ter in the city is suing the c. & n. w
Railway company for 100000 in a
Minnesota court The action arises
from the loss of an arm and other Sc
we're injuries suffered by Meyer in an
accident in the local railway yards last
winter. Meyer had been yard master
here and after losing that position was
employed as a switchman. The ac-
counts at the time were that he slipped
on some ice and an arm was crushed
by moving car before he could recoy-
err himself. The action is said to have
been commenced in Minnesota because
of more liberal laws in fixing maxi
mum recoyerieS in such cases. Com
pany engineers this week made surveys
Of the scene of the accident indicating
preparations for trial which it is re-
ported is set for November.

CLUB BOYS SUCCESS POINTS
WAY TO CHANGE OF CROP

Their cash crop, alfalfa threatened
with weevil from a neighboring coun-
ty and consequent quarantine, farmers
Of Fernley community in Lyons Coun-
ty, New, began looking about for
some other crop to grow for sale. One
farmer recalled that five agricultural
club boys had been growing potatoes
according to methods shown them by
the extension service and had harvest
ed from 9 to 13 tons an acre. He was
so favorably impressed with their re-
port Of the enterprise that he leased
40 acres Of alfalfa land, planted pota-
toes and obtained to 9 tons an acre.
Other farmers became interested, and,
in 1921, 300 acres of potatoes were
grown in the community.
