MAKES DENIAL TO.
HELP SHORTAGE
REPORTS
Manager Hubbard, Local EN-
ployment Agent, Says Are
Plenty of Men.

The stories that there is not Sill
ficient help in the state to do the fall
work on the farms is not borne out
by the statements Of local employment
agencies. Manager Hubbard of this
city, who handles more men probably
than any other agency in the northern
part of North Dakota, stated to the
Evening Times that If the farmers
were not supplied with an abundance
OF help he did not know the reason
why. because the railroads are having
a tough time keeping their men ON the
works, especially on the main line.
The railroads give free transportation
and in most cases free Office service
to the men who agree to go out and
engage In labor on improvements,
These men in many instances so soon
as they get out to the works. SO to
speak. desert their colors and engage
with the farmers, where they can Sc
cure better wages during the thresh-
ing season. This has afforded the
farmers a larger number of men than
is usually the case
Mr.. Hubbard states that in former
years he has seen men enter the cars
at various places along the line when
laborers were being transported to the
different parts of the country and call
out the price they would give for men.
But this year there has been but little
OF this necessary. Another thing
which he thinks indicates the larger
supply of farm help is the fact that
from points where in former years he
had orders for fifteen and twenty men
he has only received orders this year
for two and three.
1t is true that the large amount of
railroad work throughout the state
this fall has made it necessary for
the farmers to keep up the wages for
farm help to at least where it has been
for several years, because If the wages
We're not higher than those offered by
the railroads the men would take the
latter jobs which last longer and have
shorter hours than the threshing.
The extra wages offered during the
threshing season has caused large
amount of labor jumping-quitting the
railroads for the farms-but the rail-
roads have not made any special pro-
test as they realized that the saving Of
the crops were as necessary to rail-
roads as it was to the farmers them
selves. There has been the usual
amount of worthless men to be found
this season-men who do not want a
Job except for few days at a time
with long interval of rest between.
and who have the wandering craze so
much developed that thew cannot be
satisfied in any manner.

A Shoe Talk

To the close observers of footwear
the following interview with a travel
ing representative of an eastern shoe
mouse, now stopping at the Dacotah.
ought to be of considerable interest:
Shoe values are very firmly held
and the conditions are favorable to
an advance in some lines over prices
asked for samples when travelling men
visited Grand Forks in July, said the
New Yorker. This is due to the strong
er materials market. Within two
weeks sole leather has been advanced
and tanners are firmer holders than
at any time since the first of the
year. Calf feathers have been advance
ed cent. and still further increase
Is looked for as the demand improves.
Glazed Kid is also high, and an increase
IN the price of side feathers is also ex-
pected.
Kids In Demand.
Kid shoes promise to be in larger
demand during the coming season
than for long time. Where this
leather Is used, shoe manufacturers
are able to furnish a good quality shoe
at lower price than they can where
the uppers of the shoes are of anv
otner leather. Leading manufacturers
state mat even II kid is advanced in
price, they will still be able to nut
OUT better shoe as far as the quality
OF the leather is concerned. As in the
past, the bulk of the glazed kid shoes
ordered will be women's and misses
several lines of mems samples are be-
ing shown, and in the better grades
colOrs are found.
Inc future of the colored shoe Ia
almcuit to determine. Those who sell
tne )obbing trade do not anticipate anv
great volume Of business, but where
tne retail trade is sold direct demand

upward is expected ~
"A large business in canvas shoes
Is again expected. Retailers have had
larger trade than they expected in
many instances, and do not exnect
