MARKETING
By T. J, Delohery
TOURISTS A CASH CROP
' I 'HAT the tourist Is a prodtable cus
tomer for farm produce, prepared
food and spare rooms In farm homes
has been discovered by thousands of
farm women.
In West Virginia, twenty-eight farm
ers' wives have formed an organiza
tion called the Mountain State Tour
ists' Home.
This association, fos
tered by the West Virginia extension
service, adopted rules and regulations
governing the service and uses a,uni
form sign which Is posted In front of
each member home.
Advertising folders, bearing the
name and location of each member as
well as the Interesting sights nearby,
are widely distributed In advance of
each tourist season with the result
that members of the association have
experienced an increase in business
during the six years of this co-opera
tive effort 1
More than 6,000 people stopped from
one to several days at these 28 farms
last year. They came from 40 states,
England, Norway, Finland, Germany,
ftidla, Korea, Philippine Islands, Canal
Zone and Canada.
Rates are uniform the state
over,
lodging being charged at $1.50 per
night for two persons, with breakfast
at 25 cents per person and 50 cents
each for dinner and lunch.
"Our experience is that tourists are
a profitable market not only for spare
rooms but for fruits, vegetables, eggs,
milk, honey, meats and other things
we produce right here on the farm,"
said Mrs. Paul Priest of Franklin, VV.
I buy some fruit, especially
grapefruit and oranges; also cereal,
tea, coffee, sugar, crackers, cOcoa and
spices.
"We raise our own^tomatoes, tomato
juice, corn, beets, apples, peaches,
pears, cherries, blackberries, grape
juice, chicken, eggs, mutton, veal and
pork. I find tourists like cur cured
meats and canned goods. They have
a special liking for country cured
ham."

tlons la one place,
pointing out the advantages of hunt
ing and fishing, because of the large
number of sportsmen who get away
from the cities In the summer and fall
to follow their favorite sports and who
are always eager to find good accom
modations.
While West Virginia scenery helps
~£hë~t6urist-ca terIhg buslhessTor these
farm women, visitors are making a
practice of stopping In the country
for both lodging and meals. They find
It handler and more economical
Altoona. Ill, hasn't much attraction
Insofar as the scenery Is concerned,
but Mrs. George Stuckey puts up two
to three tourist parties a week In a
spare room of the large Stuckey farm
home. Located In the quiet and cool
of the country It is an ideal spot to
stop for the night.
Mrs. Fern Berry of Marlon, Mich.,
sells a large amount of fresh garden
truck at a nearby tourist camp. Twice
a week Mrs. Berry fills the ear with
red beets, carrots, green onions, rad
ishes, corn, cabbage and cucumbers.
Potatoes in two-pound bags, enough
for one meal, sell well as do her
canned goods and horseradish. Prices
are gauged according to city retail
levels.
Seven acres on a side road doesn't
sound attractive from a profit-making
standpoint, but Mrs, Grace B. Baertsch
of Baraboo, Wls„ had made It, with
the aid of her kitchen, giving them a
living and
Baertsch * sells
cooked food to a tourist camp some
distance away during the summer
months, and by good salesmanship has
made many of the same people buy
her eggs, which are sent by mail to
their city homes, during the winter
months. Her egg money runs as high
as $100 a month, even though she does
not charge as much as the traffic will
bear—that Is, Mrs. Baertsch attempts
to take a premium through the season
Instead of following the heavy jumps
and recessions of the market
No end of farm women, knowing
their town sisters don't care to bother
with big dinners on Sunday and that
city people have a hankering for a
good farm-cooked dinner, have made
a specialty of this service. Customers
are made largely by local advertising;
also by using boys to pass out cards
announcing the business.
Following the same thought some
farmers with gardens and other
sources of .fowl such as flocks of poul
try, canned meats, a small orchard or
a lake on the premises, have built
tourist cottages so that they not only
can attract the food and outing trade,
but offer Bleeping accommodations for
tourists and city folks who care to
■pend the night.
