FARM-LABOR SUPPLY
More Efficient Plans Formulated foF
Solving the Problem Next Season.

News Letter, U. s. Dept. Agriculture)
The experience of the present year in
dealing with the problem of supplying
labor for Americas farms has been
valuable, according to the annual re-
port of the Secretary Of Agriculture.
1t was early apparent, the Secretary
states. that in certain sections there
would be a marked shortage of farm
labor: that, on account of enlistments in
the Regular Army and through the
operation of the draft law, difficulties
would be experienced in many sec
tions, and that the situation called for
constructive action. The task was
presented of making Tie labor remain
ing on farms more effective. Of secur-
ing fuller cooperation among farmers.
and of placing on the farms urban and
rural la Dor not heretofore fully or reg
u,arly employed.
Departments Co operate
The Departments of Agriculture and
Labor and other agencies, Immediately
after the outbreak of war. undertook
to furnish assistance. and the War
Department held definitely in mind the
thought Of Tightening the burden as far
as possible by not calling to the colors
those essential for leadership and di =
rection. Under the pressure Of the
first draft it was difficult to work out
satisfactorily the underlying principle
of selection, but the operation of the
new arrangement recently announced
by the War Department should remove
many of the difficulties previously en-
cOuntered.
Under the provisions Of the food pro-
duction act 38 farm labor agents have
been appointed and they will cooper
ate with the Department OF Labor and
State officials in dealing with the farm
labor problem. The whole situation
vas canvassed at a conference I'm st.
Louis on November Q and 20, and more
efficient plans were formulated for
next season.
Organization an important Problem,
The problem of the orga nization Of
la Dor remaining in agriculture is Of the
highest importance. and it is essential
that if possible it be so perfected that
there may ie produced N this enere.
ency as much as WIS formerly pre-
duced by the whole nd!.lE,.r Of labor

the report says. Whether resort in
the future must be had 10 more dras-
tic action on the part Of tie State and
Federal authorities will depend upon
I the necessities Of the ease. Consrrip
ton of labor for in iust,lal purposes
would necessarily present many dia,-
culties. Powerful infllences are oler-
ating to bring about the release Of la
Dor and capital from less essential
enterprises and their diversion
into more urgent undertakings. These
will become increasingly compelling as
the situation develops. They will be
aided by the growing realization on the
part OF the people generally Of the ne
cessity Of curtailing expenditures on
non essentials and OF redirAct;ng labor
and capital into vital industries"

Statement as to Stiles Concert

Owing to misunderstanding on the
part of William Il. Chapman, who pro-
posed to donate a part Of the proceeds
of the Vernon Stiles concert to the
Red Cross, the officers Of that or
ganization, by reason of a rule Of the
National Association which provides
that no event shall be advertised as a
Red Cross Zenefit unless the entire
net income goes to that society, have
decided that it is best to change the
plan to a straight musical entertain
ment without any affiliation with the

preciate the efforts Of Mr.. Chapman

to its work, but under it's rules Is

CONTROL THE DOGS
Maraudins Ours Menace to Sheep
RAISING in New England.

During q recent visit to New Eng
land it was noticed that numerous pas
lures that formerly supported flocks of
sheep and lambs were now deserted
and were becoming overgrown with
weeds and bushes. A little inquiry
produced the information that sheep
killing dogs We're now SO numerous
that no flock Of sheep was safe from
their attacks unless surrounded by
dog proof bulwark. Two or three
decades ago sheep We're protitablF
kept on many OF the hills and in
numerous stretches of woodland where
the nutritious grasses and the luXu-
RANT browsing which flourish so nat
urally upon the limestone soils of New
England kept the 1ocks in thrifty
growing condition. The rigorous
climate OF winter in that latitude did
not affect the sheep adversely, if they
were provided with shelter under
which they could keep dry.
Vagrant Dog Menace.
The owners of these fOcks were oc-
casionally obliged to shoot some
mauradins cur. but public sentiment
at that time supported them in the
protection of their sheep. Now, how
ever. while support has not been who'll
ly Withdrawn. the dogs have become
so numerous that the authorities are
almost overwhelmed If the farmers
Of New England could be assured that
their sheep would be allowed to iced
unmolested at the present day, numer-
Gus hocks would quickly be purchased.
They have unexceiled pasturage for
sheep during the summer months and
would willingly make provision for
their care during the winter. Inc
prices which wool. mutton. and lamb
now command arc sufficiently remun-
crativo to Justify anyone who is the
possessor of idle grassland in New
England in purchasing flock of sheep.
f;ui some local legislation will first be
necessary which viii recognize the
fact shat a warrant dog is a menace
providlng a penalty for those who in
sist upon owning dogs without keep
ing them under proper restraint. Dogs
should not be allowed to wander away
from their owners premises or leave
their owners control. as otherwise
they will become q public nuisance.

responsible for the damage done by
his DOG, hecause Of the w2nton de-
