SANE AND SENSIBLE

The extension department of the
State College has worked out plan
to solve the serious problem of secur-
ing labor for the approaching har-
vest, which seems both sane and sen
sible. 1t provides, in brief, that the
business men of the towns through
out the grain belt allow their able
bodied clerks and helpers to go into
the harvest fields, and fill their
places in the stores and offices, as
far as possible, with women. This
plan has several excellent points.
First-It would furnish large
supply OF reliable and trustworthy
harvest hands, who would be far pre-
ferable to transients. A large ma
jority of the clerks and helpers in
the country towns and cities have
come from the farm and have had
experience in farm work. 1t would
take few days to harden them up
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1917-06-22

SO that they could stand full DAYS
Toll, but from the start they would
accomplish more than inexperienced
boys or many of the transients who
are constantly scheming how to give
minimum OF work for a maximum
of wages.
Seeond-A few weeks in the har-
vest fields would be highly beneficial
TO the health of the city men. The
work in the open air would do them
much more good than spending a
short vacation in travelling. loafing
or automobile riding. 1t would hard
en- their muscles, stimulate their cir
culation, quiet their nerves. and last.
put not least, would fill instead of
deplete their pocket books. They
would go back to their city Jobs.

and fitted to give more efficient serv-
ice than ever.
Ihlrd-lt would foster better
feeling between the business men of
each town and the farmers of the
surrounding country The farmers
would appreciate the efforts of the
townspeople to help them solve a
perpleXing problem, and would be-
come. better acquainted with and
more friendly to the men who leave
their city jobs to help save the crops.
Fourth-If the harvest crews can
be filled with local men. the profess
sional labor agitators will decide that
1t is useless to attempt to make
trouble and will give the grain pro
ducing section of this state a wide
berth.
Fifth-The business men of the
towns and cities can use many
women helpers in place of men for a
few weeks, without any serious in.
convenience or loss In fact, this
demonstration of their desire to ac-
commodate and help the farmers
would doubtless benefit rather than
injure their trade in the long run.
SiXth-The plan is simple and
does not involve any red tape. 1t
offers a way by which each commun-
ity can solve its local harvest labor
problem for itself
The plan is practical, as we'll as
sane and sensible, and should be
given fair and thorough trial.

OUR STATE
CAPITOL LETTER
CBY CLIO HARPER }

LITTLE ROCK, Aug. l6.-The out
standing Indebtedness of the State of
Arkansas has reached the vanishing
point. II has been rapidly dwindling
since the sheriffs began settling in
July, and there will be considerable
money in the treasury after payday,
September !. Soon thereafter the pro-
ceeds from the note issue will be paid
into the State Treasury by the Union
Trust Company, amounting TO $3.50.
625 including the premium, That will
give the state a sufficient amount OF
money, with the franchise taz and 9th.
er revenues being received to keep it
On a cash basis for all time to come,
unless some untoward conditions
should arise, The state will pay 4 "a
per cent on the notes, and the act
authorizing the issue provides for a
sinking fund that will eventually wipe
out the debt. The increment in state
taxes, due to increasing values and
new sources of taxation, should keep
pace with the increasing demands that
are to be made on the state, if the
proper economy is practced in the
making of appropriations. All indica-
tions point to this as one Of the most
constructive measures of the admins
tration, and that it will place the
states credit upon a more substantial
basis than it has ever been since the
general tax levy was reduced from
2 1-2 to l 3-4 mills during the Davis
administration.
