Minneapolis, July 21.-Good
wages and chicken dinners! Hur-
rayl Who wouldn't be a harvest
hand In the great northwest with
such an outlook? The Civic and
Commerce association is trying to
meet. In some way, the many APP
peals Il has received from Mime
sofa and Dakota points for harv-
est hands. The three states need
thousands of laborers to cut,
shock, stack and thrash the wheat
and they want them soon.
The association, therefore, wir.
ed commercial organizations in 10
Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri and
Iowa centers calling attention to
the northwest's need and the op-
portunities offered. II asked that
newspaper prominence be given
to the situation in the various
fields. Good wages with chicken
dinners and other favorable con-
ditions," are promised to those
haryesters in the states to the
south who viii follow the ripen.
ing crops northward and be here
for the finish.
It is proposed later to effect
a plan whereby all commercial or
CARNATIONS in the grain territory
. from Buffalo, N. Y, westward
may unite in q campaign to Sc
cure men next year to start with
the early harvests in the south
and move northward to the Cana
dian border as successive crops
mature.
