60 per cent OF the labor that is i'm
peratively needed to take care of the
different crops at the time they most
need attention. has assumed such a
serious stage that there is a feeling
more or less grave concern as 10 the
future of the farming interests In the
county. Some instances have been
related, though not all confined to
this county. in which farmers have
sod. or attempted to sell. their farms
because they found It impossible to
raise crops proftably, owing to the
difficulty of procuring labor. Within
the last two weeks complaints have
been multiplying. Hemp and tobacco
are both in need of attention. 5000
a day and board are offered for tobac-
co labor and $500 an acre for cut
ting hemp. These prices provide fair
compensation, but idleness seems more
attractive to Number Of the class re-

While Mr.. Harris was driving the
horses toward the city this one got

He came to the city with the re-

Henneberger store looked inviting
and the horse entered the front door
and walked quietly through to the
