WOMEN WORKERS ON FARMS ARE
 COMMON SIGHT

The sight of women doing agricul- tural labor used to be considered an un-American one. It was thought that our chivalry would not permit this form of feminine toll. A dispatch from Great Falls. Montana, though. tells how many women are helping their husbands thresh their grain. Help is so scarce that on many farms the wives and daughters and sisters are busy all through November at this task. This is evidently typical condition that could be duplicated in many other localities.
 In districts where there is a large alien population, the sight of women working in the fields is no novel one. The peasants of Europe are used to field labor on the part of both sexes. Their women come over here far stronger than American girls, indicat- ing that they are none the worse for their laborious toll.
 Any family can get along where the women are willing to take hold with their own hands at the work of cultivation and harvest. It is easy to see how the foreigners pay off the mortgages on their farms. But it does not follow that the American boru woman must thereby be expect ed to take off her apron and put on the overalls of a farm hand.
 In the newly arrived immigrant family, the wife may be doing the very best thing when she gets out and helps her husband gain his first foot hold. No doubt there are many American born women who are doing just the same, and it is vastly to their credit. The objection to it is not so much physical as educational and do- mestic.
 On the health side most women would be better for outdoor work, If they took time to break into it grad ually, but it is just the same Ques- ton as whether married women shall leave their homes to work in factor ies and offices. If they are to spend their time digging and delving for money, things at home must go un- done. The cookery will be at loose ends, and the children ragged and un- trained. It is quite possible to pay too high price even for good bank account and an unmortgaged home.
