FARM LAbORERS RIDE IN AUTO
 REFUSE. WORK
(By Associated Press)

SACRAMENTO, Calif., Dec. T. Woodchoppers have been known to ride about in six cylinder automo piles, declining all proffered work and hay .balers in parts of the San Joaquin valley, after running wages up to ten dollars day, went on strike for more, NJ. F. Tarpey of Fresno told delegates to the California Fruit Growers convention in an address recently. He urged the importation of Asiatic farm labor for the period of the war, asserting that production could be doubled, and the places of the men who went to war would be heldheld, pending their return. He expressed doubt that labor unions would consistently oppose such a plan, because, he said, a high per centage of Workingmens wages goes to pay for food which will become more expensive if it becomes scare CT.
 We canot, and I hope we never will, expect our women to take the place of men on the farms and where else are We to procure our help?" MT. Tarpey said.
 "Our boys do not take kindly to farm work. The high school in the neighborhood in which live has grad uated large number of boys during [ the past five years and itFfs lament able fact that none of these graduates returned to work with their fathers upon the farm. And this is a con- munity where proprietary farmers, largely predominate and where every farmer has an automobile, singing machine and baths, and mothers and sisters of the boys do their washing and mending."
 From 100000 to 250,00O Chinese, MT. Tarpey said, already are at work l in Franc, and he quoted Ng Poon Shew, editor of Chung Sai Yat Pc, a Chinese newspaper in San Francisco
 as saying that China could spare .sany number of millions" for the work, subject to deportation when no long
 CT needed.
 The farms, he said, were now
 drawn upon to supply city vacancies
 caused by the draft although they
 already faced labor shortage.
 "Farm work is, as a fact demon
 strated, the least inviting to our
 youth, the least followed from choice"
 MT. Tarpey said, "Our farm help must
 be sought from some other source | My only guide to solution is the
 experience of England and France and other European countries active
 ly engaged in war. Import for the duration of the war sufficiency of
 dependable farm laborers to do farm I work only. Even our present abnorm-
 al production of food products can l

TWO WRECKS
Both Pere Marquette and Ann Arbor
Have Smashups.

The past week has seen both the
Pere Marquette and Ann Arbor rail
roads tied up here for a short time
because of wrecks near Alma.
The Ann Arbor on Saturday after
noon was tied up for a short time
because of "A headon collision be-
tween two freight trains, which
came together near the Ely street
crossing. Neither train was going
at a very high rate of speed, and lit
tic damage resulted from the trains
going together. The. cowcatchers
of the two engines were demolished,
but aside from that the damage was
very slight.
Sunday morning Pere Marquette
freight piled up west of Alma about
three miles, nine freight cars going
into the ditch, two of which were
loaded oil cars. Track was torn up
for a considerable distance, and the
freight cars were badly battered 1t
is thought that one of the cars jump
ed the track, causing the wreck.

HOME GUARDS
ARE At WORK
Over Half a Hundred Men Have
Joined Local Guard and
Are Working.
ARE DRILLING TWICE A WEEK
Officers Have Been Elected and They
Are Seeking for More Men
To Join.

The Alma Home Guards completed
a temporary organization last Fri
day evening and started drilling,
using the high school gymnasium for
this purpose.
Those desiring to join the home
guard met in the city hall, where af-
ter a short discussion the election Of
officers was held George Soper, who
has had years Of drill experience, was
elected captain; John Chick was elect
ed first lieutenant and A. X. Stump,
Ia Spanish American war veteran,
was elected second lieutenant. The
officers are temporary, having been
elected only until such time as the
local home guards are mustered into
state service.
Following the election of officers
the men went to the high school
gymnasium where over an hour was
spent in drilling, only the first and
simplest of the movements being
given to the men during the first
night.
Saturday cards were out and a
number of the guards went out after
new men, so that sufficient number of
men will be out for the home guards.
A second drill was held Tuesday
night in the school gymnasium, far
larger number of men being out for
the home guards than before, and
there is every indication that in the
very near future the city will have a
company of home guards of well over
one hundred men. Over fifty We're
present at the drill.
AS soon as the drillmaster and
captain, George Soper, feels sure
that sufficient drill has been had, the
company will make application to get
state aid and. come under state con-
troll. A large number here, who are
not subject to daft have expressed
themselves as willing to "do their Bit.
The Home guard will give them
chance to do this Drills will be held
Tuesday and Friday evenings for
about month and from then on just
cne night week If interested see
any of the officers.
