Scarcity Of Farm Labor.
From the Easton (Md.) star-Democrat.

Time and time again has our attention been
directed to the scarcity of farm labor in Tai
bot county. At this time the farmers are
again complaining Of being unable to secure
help. Wages of 81 to $3.50 per day with
board added are offered, but help cannot be
secured. The condition is indeed becoming
serious. The tillers of the soil, unable to
procure laborers and gather their crops, are
becoming discouraged, and are leaving the
farm. Where would the world get its daily
bread were there no farmers? The whole
world, indeed, owes its existence TO these
men. Let us go TO work, then, and bring
laborers here, and root out the ignorant ne
groes who are too worthless to work at any
price.
