LABOR SCARE
pEPRESsEs PRICES


Lurins the past week the attention
of the Development League Press bu'
reau at Grand Forks, has been called
to the exaggerated reports in some
of the daily papers Of the state rel
alive to an alarming scarcity OF help.
The cry of scarcity strangely comes
from the southeastern part Of the
sta,e where threshing operations
have been practically completed. 1t
is true that there is no over supply
OF threshing help, the wet weather
having caused hundreds OF men to
leave for the woods. AS far as the
bureau has Teen able to ascertain,
however, the condition is not at all
alarming. In the western part OF
the StdU0 Clo ullllCully 10 AOt 81 AAe>A
in the scarcity of help as in the
scarcity of threshing machines. AS
a matter of fact the time honored
tendency to whoop it up regarding
help scarcity to save the bumper
crop is to be deplored. 1t has
marked tendency in sending the
price of wheat down in the primary
markets. There is no question but
what North Dakota has a splendid
average crop this year, but it is also
a fact that the yield will not be phe-
nomenal. It Is high time that the
harasgue about labor shortage be REL
egated to the place where it belongs

Never before was the fact more
clearly demonstrated that the prices
Of our products are governed largely
by the transcendent law of supply
and demand. Last year when pota-
tees we're scarce everywhere else,
the North Dakota growers received
nearly a dollar a bushel for their
product while this year with great
crop everywhere, the price Is abour
twenty-five cents a bushel. Natur-
ally farmers are gong to store all
they can, hoping that the price will
be better In the spring. Here is a
good opportunity for the growers to
organize build warehouses and
Unite to control the market as much
as possible. Next winter will afford
a good opportunity for the various
farmers clubs to thresh out the
Erohlem to see if they can place tho
potato growing industry on q paying
basis. North Dakota raises the
spuds. but the price should never go
below fifty cents a bushel.
