The question of farm labor for
the year 1909 promises to be a
problem ofno mean proportions
The Commissioner of Labor, I.
Beck of Madison, is being besieg-
ed with applications from farm
ers all over the state for farm
help, either by the month or BY
the year. There are a great
manv more farmers asking for
help than appears to be me,i
wanting these positions. During
the hard times last year, the
commissioner succeeded IN plac-
ing over 1900 men out of work
in the cities upon farms at wages
ranging from $4,000 to $35. 90
per month, including board and
washing. and varying according
to the past experience ofthe farm
hand and his training for the
work. Those offering places for
$500 per month are generally
for married men without chill
dren. A these rates of wages
any young man is better offfnan-
ciallv and otherwise on the farm
than in the city where there are
so many attractions to lead him
away from his work and to in
dace him to spend his money for
purposes that are many times
worse than useless.
