Family Vacation

Highways and turnpikes are
crowded with travellers with one
destination in mind-an enjoyable,
relaxing summer vacation.
Long days of automobile travel
make irritable and restless chill
dren and weary parents. Family
trips can be fun rather than dread
ed ordeals if you plan to have as
many of the comforts of home as
possible on hand, says Mrs. Alice
NJ. King, State home demonstra-
tion leader with the University of
Delaware extension service.
A hungry, thirsty, or dirty
traveller is not happy traveller.
Mrs. King recommends a snack
box, thermos bottle and a cleanup
kit be included on your list of
"musts" for the trip. Include a lit
terbag on this list also. You can't
afford to forget the fact that more
than 40 states now have litter con-
troll laws with fines varying from
SO 70 $1,000 for throwing rubbish
from your car.
If there are small children in
the family, Mrs. King suggests that
you plan travel games to be played
when youngsters lose interest in
watching scenery. Children enjoy
watching for license plates from
the various states, counting the
number of different kinds of ami
mails they see, waving to children
in other cars and nlaying word
games such as II Spy" and What

Hot Weather Means
Heavy Use OF
Water Systems

Warm and warmer weather puts
strain on the farm water system
says George Vapaa, Kent County
Agent.
To stay away from breakdown,
he suggests a few preventative
measures to save repair work at an
inopportune time.
Air-volume control is often
troublesome Too little air causes
the tank to become water logged
resulting in frequent starting and
stopping. In this case the tank
must be drained and refilled. If
this happens often the air-volume
control should be replaced or re-
paired.
Too much air in the pressure
tank causes water to spit" Vigor-
ously from outlets.
fabrication is important but the
amount and frequency of oiling
varies with the type and make of
motor. Tco much is as bad as too
little.
Adjustment of the stuffing box
is important on pumps which have
them rather than the rotary seal.
The adjustment should allow few
drops of water per minute to leak
through to lubricate the packing.
A cap on the end of the stuffing
box controls this adjustment. If
it is too tight it will cause the mo-
tor to run tight and if it is too
loose there will be excessive leak
age.
Safety pressure releases should
be checked occasionally to save a
pressure build-up in case the auto
matte switch fails to work.
Mr.. Vapaa says the belt tension
on a V-belt should be adjusted SO
a slight pressure at the center
point between the pulleys should
depress the belt about one-half to
one inch. This will prevent slip
page or strain on the bearings.
For best operation, motors must
be clean, dry, properly fabricated
and the power should come in on
good wiring.

Am I?s "Picture bingo", played
with pictures of familiar objects
which are covered as children see
these objects along the road, will
interest children for awhile. Occa-
sional inexpensive surprise pack
ages also break the monotony of
the trip.
Favorite toys that are large
enough that they are not easily
misplaced help, keep children oc-
cupied. Such toys must be the kind
that will not endanger passengers
in the event of a sudden stop, ad-
vises Mrs. King.
Allow enough time in your trav-
ell schedule to stop for meals and
rest stops, Mrs. King suggests.
Use this time to let children
stretch their limbs and use up some
of that excess energy. And even a
few minutes of walking around can
do wonders to revive a weary
driver.

I have just received from a
Minneapolis college student
who is now devoting his sum-
mer vacations to securing the
Black Hills in search Of a
$1,000 paper-bound book.

Mrs. Linda w. Slaughter's

The wife of the surgeon for
the military expedition from

title page of her 24-page,
paper-bound booklet reads:

County Pioneers Association.
Bismarck Tribune Print, 1874.
My Minnesota correspon-
dent writes that two summers
ago he saw a copy of this
Western rarity, published Just
"a years ago, tucked away
in the 50-cent bookshelves of
a junk shop in the Black
Hills. He thought nothing
more of 1t until months later

to its estimated value as $500
to $500 and up.
Last summer, he tells me,
he spent his vacation search

for his lost opportunity"

sends me a page from a New
