out the summer season, a large
amount of labor is required for
that work also. On the other hand,
if part Of this land is planted to
winter wheat, then the preparation
Of the land and the seeding of the
crop come during August and
September, when there is little to
be done with the corn crop. Such
a system permits the carrying

Better Methods and Better Crop
Systems
The Farm Help Specialists are
advocating the use of more efficient
methods. in the cultivation and
handling Of crops. On one farm it
was found that to produce an acre
of corn Is man hours and AZ hours
Of horse labor were required, while
on another farm SO man hours and
70 horse hours were used. The en-
ployment of better methods will
permit the second man to produce
his crop with a great deal less man
labor. Similar results can be Sc
cured in the production of wheat
and other crops. In the handling
of live stock it is possible to use
equipment and so to arrange the
feed lots that a large saving in
Labor can be made.
Suggestions of the most desir-
able cropping systems for farms
are made. If farm is planted to
corn alone, then the breaking of
the land and the planting of the
crop must be done in 9 short space
of time in the spring. This requires
a large number of men and large
amount of hore power. Since this
crop must be cultivated through

All right" said the farmers,
"e,ll plant the limit But don't

Bill would answer-or Tom or

Tor the kind of armies this war
calls for. We can plan and plan
tlll we are black in the face. but
there's just one upshot of it all
and that is, the town people have
got to turn out in droves and har-
vest the crops when the time
comes"
Il don't like that idea" the
farmer would frequently say.
Neither do l." Bill would frank
ly admit, 'but it's better than being
licked by the Germans" To which
the farmer always agreed.
/, The County Agents have been of
very valuable service to farmers in
securing help. Last year these
agents placed on farms more than
100000 men, and this year they are
giving even greater assistance. But
they have always had in mind the
policy which the Department has
pursued consistently since Amer
lea entered the war-to tell the
farmers frankly that town volun-
teers will be necessary during
harvests and other rush periods,
and that in no other way, under
present conditions, can a sufficient
supply of help be expected during
such seasons. At first there was
rather general thought in the Ma
tion that the Government could
and would furnish" sufficient
labor or find" sufficient labor for
all the farmers at all times-that
is, to arrange things so farm help
could be obtained under wartime
conditions just as under peace
time conditions. Just how this was
to be done no one was kind enough
to state-and the Department was
unable to find any magicians in
its employ! AS a result of persist
ent presentations of the plain facts
The Department finally succeeded
in dissipating this strange notion
and in establishing almost every
where a willingness on the part Of
farmers to use town volunteers and
on the part of town people to go to
the fields when needed.
This general scheme required a
great deal of organization. The
Department placed in nearly every
state a Farm Help Specialist who
works in cooperation with the
agricultural college, the County
Agents, Council Of Defense and
