Farming must nave been profitable
In 1902. The Department of Agricul.
ture reports that the average wages
OF farm labOrcrs In the whole country
were greater that year than in any
previous twelve months since 1866
The rate of wages varied, of course,
with the conditions of labor. Men in
Montana received S32 n month and
board, whereas the South Carolina Ia
borer received only $S.25. The cxpla-
nation Is that Il man, Il mule and a
plow, the unit of labor in the cotton
belt' produce q crop worth not more

tractiOn-engincs, an engineer with two
helpers In blowing and eight In har-
vesting produces II crop worth $500.
there Is not so great variation in the
hours of labor as in the rate, of wages.
Ihe average throughout the country in
the spring and summer Is eleven hours
day, and in the busiest season Il
little more than twelve hours. In Con-
nectlcut, Montana and Wyoming the
men seldom work more than eleven
hours at any season. On the other
hand, there are sixteen States and two
territories where thirteen hours is Il
days work when the men are rushed.
The farmers are an Independent class.
About twO-thirds of them own their
farms ana work them with little, IL
any, hired help. Indeed, the census

LOCAL CRACK SHOT
ON BIRD SHOOTING
GIVES POINTERS TO BEGINNERS
I'M FIELD sHooTiNG-SHOoT
WELL AHEAD OF
MARK.

A local nimrod gives the following
| hunting Of game birds.
The valuable thing about shooting
game birds found in this section of
The country Is the smooth, rapid
handling of gun. Efficiency and per-
lection in this point come only from
long and hard practice. A rapid shot
is not necessarily the one who pulls
the trigger Immediately when the
game rises He is rather the man who
gets on like lightning and cody
stands and waits until the bird is at
the distance when the shot pattern is
at its best
If you notice an old sportsman you
cannot fail to be impressed with the
ease with which he shoots. At the
rise he gets on the bird at the first
autter, but holds if too close, He
ls1ows there is no sense in blowing
a fine bird to pieces.
For birds going straight away about
on a level with the eyes the old gun
ner holds high. His tactics are the
same for everything flushing near and
rushing into thick cover. If the bird
hugs the ground on a straight way he
colds low. For the bird that goes
quartoring away the surest shot is to
hold well ahead and trfie high. For
the bird coming dead towards him
his sight is square at the fiier
Amateurs will fail usually on the
easiest shots, quartering birds. These
are the easiest because they. offer the
biggest marks. They miss because
they do not allow enough for the
speed of the bird and stop the swing
of the gun as the trigger is pulled.
The only remedy is 10 get well ahead
of the mark and keep up the swing of
the gun until the shot is made. Not
one out of twenty birds is missed
through shooting too far ahead
In working in timbered land or high
weeds the old gunner takes shots
which to an amateur seem foolish. He
never balks at bird which Pushes
near by in thick cover.
He shoots anyway. He has acquired |
the habit of smashing through any |
and all sorts of stuff so long as even |
The tip of the fluttering wings is in |
sight. He has found out by expert |
snce that more times than not that |
cover which appears dense and impe.
-
angles of soft leaves AMI twigs |
through which shot will plough for
many yards. He knows that where a
bird can find passage shot can fol.
ow with killing force. Many times
lis finest shots are made by shooting
. few feet ahead Of the spot where
he bird disappeared as he pulled.
