That is the cry which is being
raised in North Dakota at the present
time, and. unfortunately, the response
does not begin to be as encouraging
as hoped for.
needed in North Dakota, needed urg-
emily; where are they?
Every employment agency in
Grand Forks is making a desperate
effort to secure workmen. Every one
OF them has the same reply when a
Times representative inquired as to
the relative proportions of demand
and supply. I'VE don't know where
in the world We're going to get
enough men. Every day we receive
hundreds Of demands from all parts
OF the state. The farmers must Sc
cure hands Immediately, the railroad
work is sadly retarded on recount of
lack of help. and men are not show
ing up"
Many Gone to Canada.
There appears to be no men in
the country" said MIR. Hubbard of
the Hubbard employment agency on
DeMers venue. I'VE could place 500
lahorers easily, but they're not to be
found. Unfortunately. there were too
many men here a year ago. They
received low wages and board was
high. Thousands of them have gone
to Canada. n now tina they are
needed SO badly they are out of
reach"
Quit Railroad Camp.
The Great Northern has found it
necessary to close several camps be-
said MIR. Webb Of another employ
ment agency.
Several days 6 the Moorhead
camp gave it up as a bad job. A crew
OF min men was Their sent down here
from Canada, but there should be
~thlrty-fve men in this camp. That is
the situation all over the northwest.
Dozens of orders reach us daily,
but we have no men on hand to fill
them. Farmers are paying from s2.25
10 50 a day; h railroads offer is
cents an hour with overtime enough
at time and a half pay to cover the
board bill. but there are no men avail
able. We place from eighteen to
'iS "a doS, Uul we COulQ easily
handle five times as many
Needed Right Here.
"Ialk about the state said an
other, I'VE don't have to send men
out west to n work; we have more
orders right here at home than we
can fill. Farmers in this vicinity are
paving from 50 to 1925 for haying
help, and are Offering $3.50 for har-
vest hands, but there's nothing doing.
We can't get enough men.
Western Canada, too, needs thou
sands of men. But they're not avail
able here, for We are not able to
supply the local demand"
The Same All Over.
Conditions We're found to be the
tied.
A great many men will begin to
come in very soon now, it is asserted
ny some, but there will be a great
shortage in spite of this fact. 81
guess the women will have to get into
the fields" said one employer.

Centuries ago great, elaborate books
were written about flowers, and the
kinds even then were many and some
Of the forms were marvellous. Wor-
ship and praise have centered about
lowers and garIands rather than about
the fruits that we eat. This marks
them to have been considered as Of
the higher things. All holy and great
occasions need them If the occasions
are complete Not soul but responds
to blossoms even though he knows it
not. No soul passes lily in blow, an
apple orchard in May, "a clover field
swept with red or a good garden lying
at his feet, but that some mere reflec-
ton of it enters into his mind and
lodges itself in some MENUS Of the

man to imagine a fiowerless world, and

By reason of their attitude on the Local
Option question ia the session Of the
Legislature just closed, the Anti-Saloou
League has marked several Senators
whose further political ambitions it will
exert every influence to defeat There
are five Of the Senators in particular who
have incurred the just wrath Of the Anti
Saloon League, and who demonstrated
by their actions. that they are more de-
sirious of the support aud influence OF the
whiskey interests, than of the moral,
temperance vote: These Senators are:
Jesse D. Price, Of Wicomico, president Of
the Senate; John P. Moore, of Worcester;
Harvey J. Speicker. of Garrett; Chas. a..
Wells. of Prince Georges; Chas. A..
Andrew, Of Harford.

such bitter strife in the Legislature, was

The Legislature adjourned on Monday
night alter 9o-day session during which
but little important legislation was pass
ed. It is believed the cost of the session
win reach $IS5. and all the really
important work done could have been ac-
complished easily in months time. onr
Legislators frittering away most Of the
time. their one aim being the collection
Of the salary and pickinRs allowed. The
record Of the Legislature just closed is not
a proud one and will not rebound to the
credit of either party.
One thing was demonstrated pretty
clearly. and that was the grip Of
the whiskey ring on the State leg

introduction of the Local Option bill,
in the middle Of March. until il was killed
