KEEP BOYS ON THE FARM
IN TINE OF WAR.

The young men of Minneso-
| ta's farms should be modified
for farm labor this spring and
summer, says A. F. Woods, dean
of the Minnesota College Of
Agriculture, in a letter addressed
! to Governor J. A. A. Burnquist.
The greatest service which
young men can render the coun-
try at this time, adds Dear
Woods, is to give their best eff
forts to the production of as
large crops as possible. Such a
service is just as high and hon
orable as enlistment in the army
or navy. Dean Woods letter TO
the Governor follows:
81 want very heartily to sec
ond the suggestion made by
Hugh J. Hughes that some state
system Of modelling and regis
tering available farm labor
should be put into immediate
operation. Under normal con-
ditions we are short of farm la
Dor in Minnesota and the Dako-
tas and under the present con-
ditions the shortage will be in
tensifed. There must be con-
siderable increase in crop acre
age. Probably the heaviest de-
mand will come during harvest.
We must see to it that the labor
is available and this can be &C
complished only through some
system of registration Of labor
needs and supply. Every effort
should be made to have the
young men on the farms realize
that the greatest service they
can render the country at this
moment is to give their best eff
forts to the production of as
large crops as possible, especial
ly of the staple foods that will
be needed for men and animals.
eve have been impressing this
fact upon our students ever
since it seemed apparent that
war was coming, but it needs
emphasis from the highest quar-
ters in order to have these farm
boys satisfied that they are rem
dering a service that would be
as honorable and as highly APP
preciated as enlistment in the
army or navy. If the work could
be put on some sort Of an en-
listment basis, recognized by
the state and government I think
it would help. It seems to me
it is a question of the greatest
fundamental importance in our
preparedness program.
