FARM HANDS GET S45
A MONTH, WITH BOARD
That's In South Dakota, Where Bump
er Crops Are Predicted.

Sioux Falls, S. D.-Because Of q
shortage of farm hands it has become
necessary in many parts of South Da-
kota for the women and boys of the
households and even the girls to work
In the fields. So the farmers and their
wives and children are hard at work
putting in what is believed to be the
greatest acreage of spring wheat in the
history of the state.
With the prospect that prices for
foodstuffs will continue high during
the war the farmers have decided to in
crease their crop acreage. With a ia
vorable season South Dakota will pro-
duce this year the greatest crop of
foodstuffs in its history. The residents
Of towns are preparing to have larger
vegetable gardens than ever before, SO
there is every indication that the state
will make new record in crop pro-
duction this year.
Farm hands ready for work demand
from $35 to S45 a month and board.
and in many instances the farmers pay
these prices. Only a few years ago
good farm hands could be had from
S12 to $50 a month and board, and
those who received the higher figure
were the envied of their fellows.

LABOR AND CAPITAL MUST

Factors Essential to Business
Prosperity.

"More than anything else in this
country we need better understand
ing between capital and labor" says
George E. Roberts, former director of
the United States mint. 'The wage
Garner must come to see that the prob
lem of increasing production and low
ering costs is his problem as well as
the employers. An appeal must some
how be made to his spirit, to his crea-
tive powers. which will enlist his will
ing cooperation and develop his latent
capabilities.
"We have the highest wage scale in
the world, and we want it 20 be still
higher, but you cannot make wages
higher by increasing production costs.
Higher costs and prices simply go
around to the rear entrance and settle
down on the same premises. Indus

sssw French Food Regulations Prohibit
Use of Rice In Powder.
New regulations prohibiting the di-
Terfing of any foodstuffs for other use
than rations is causing tremendous
STIR among Paris women, because 1t
prevents the manufacture of face pow
der from rice. Frenchwomen face an
epoch OF shiny noses, since it is pro-
EhsQited to import luxuries and the ex-
sxk1ng supplies are light. Many French
women already have started laying in
supplies. and many shops are sold out
and prices have been raised in such
,as have any for sale.
1T Is estimated that there are 2O,-
100000 women In France, and 10 per
cent OF them use powder, averaging
two grams daily. In 100000 grams
sof rice face powder there are 5000
kilograms OF rice. A ration amounts
10 sixty grams, so the women waste
100000 rations Of rice daily.

WHY IS INDUSTRY LIKE
A THREE LEGGED STOOL?
For Solution of the Conundrum Read
the Following Terse Interviews,

For Solution of the conundrum Read
the Following Terse Interviews.
Andrew Carnegie, who since his re-
tirement from active life has devoted
himself to the study of human rela-
tions, was recently asked which he
considered the most important factor
In industry-labor, capital or brains?
The canny Scot replied, with a merry
twinkle in his eye:
(which is the most important leg of
three legged stcol?"
For all the factors in industry there
is tabloid sermon in the steel mans
terse reply. a sermon which brings
home more effectively than any lengthy
discussion could possibly do, the inter-
dependence of employers and en-
ployees and the necessity for their
working together with the public to
protect the prosperity Of industry.
But Mr.. Carnegie is only one Of the
many authorities who have laid stress
upon this theme Judge Elbert II.
Gary, chairman of the board of direc-
tors of the United States Steel corpora
ton and president of the American
Iron and Steel institute, recently ex-
pressed the same idea from another
fewpoint-namely, the value Of loyal
ty in employees and the necessity for
cultivating this loyalty.
"It is WELL" said Judge Gary. "for
the large number of employers to bear
in mind that they cannot successfully
carry on their affairs without having
the labor and loyalty Of their en-
ployees. The work Of multitudes will
always be needed for the successful
operation of business, but it is clear
that the skilled laborer or the highly
educated or experienced employees
would not without abundant capital
accomplish pronounced success."-In-

Common Sense Hints
AZ About Garden Work

Here are a few garden "dont's' clip
ped from a University of Wisconsin
circular:
Don't sprinkle your garden. Water
It once week II necessary.
Don't let the weeds get start.
Don't permit the surface soil to be-
come compact or lumpy.
Don't cultivate heavy soil when 1t
Is too moist.
Don't let the bugs get your plants.
This means you must watch plants
closely.
Don't try to cultivate too much land.
especially If it is sod. Intensive work
on small area usually gives better re-
turns than the same amount put on a
largo area.
Don't plant seeds too deep They
should be only deep enough to get suf-
flcient moisture for termination. Peas
and corn are exceptions to this rule

NATIVES LOOTED SHIP
DRIVEN IN BY A U BOAT
Battle Between Crew and Beach
Combers, During Which One
Of Latter Was Killed.

New York.-Driven by pitiless tigers
of the sea" into the clutches Of equally
pitiless human tigers lurking along the
beaches Of northern Spain was the
fate of the officers and crew of the
schooner Phineas W. Sprague. the cap-
tain and chief officer of which YES
sci arrived In an American port on
board passenger liner from Cadiz.
According to Captain F. A. Jarvis,
the Sprague was pursued by a German
O boat while coasting through the bay
OF Biscay and was forced to seek ref
uge inside the three mile limit There
the vessel was caught by treacher-
Gus current and thrown ON the beach
near CarbOnares, Spain.
No sooner did the residents of that
part Of King Alfonso's domain see that
the schooner was helpless, declares the
captain. than they boarded the vessel
In droves and commenced to loot her.
A battle between the crew Of the
schooner and the beach combers en-
sued, during which one of the latter
was killed. The Sprague was a total
loss.
On board the same vessel which
brought Captain Jarvis and his chief
officer back to this country were
several other survivors Of submarine
disasters, including Captain Phillip II.
Johnson and twenty-one men Of the
steamship Zward and FIVE men from
the schooner Edwin R. Hunt, both of
which were destroyed by U boats.

BETTERED CONDITIONS
DUE TO EMPLOYERS
Demagogue Deserves No Credit For
improving the Lot of the Wage
Garner. Saws Manufacturer.

Garner, Says Manufacturer.
Manufacturers as a rule are not op-
posed to the highest wages consistent
with personal efficiency. decent hours
and the necessary provisions Of social
legislation" says prominent Milwau-
kee manufacturer employers as
class have have come to realize that
the contented, healthy workman is the
most efficient workman and that in
consequence high wages, reasonable
hours, good regulation for safety, sanf-
tation, welfare. etc, are splendid in
vestments.
"The trouble Is that the demagogue
does not give the manufacturer credit
for bringing about better conditions,
but with silvery tongued oratory leads
the workman into pitfalls from which
he is unable to recover for years. Un-
dcubtedly every. employee can do bet
ter by stating any grievance which he
may have to his employer instead of
preaching it TO men who have no inter-
est in him or in the industry In which
he Is working. ."-Industria Conserve

Waterbury, Conn.-Fred Hemmings

the ship, which will attract the torpedo,
bring it to the side Of the ship attacked
and then lift it to the deck without ex-
ploding 1t.
Mr.. Hemmings believes 1t is destined
