Peace,

Peace.
What to you and and all the rest OF the world
does the word mean? A., ..., r. .
Yesterday peace the of drean-the titie OF
roden phantom that lowered like will the wsp over ue
marshes of war; always above and out OF OF the hahd
upstretched to grasp it. Then of sudden 1t was ours
this peace and its bright comradevctory But tho toda
it be tangible understandable thing. are you sure you
know its real meaning? , ,,,
Think of those first red days of when the uhans
cast themselves welterng against the contempt

horrors the like of which the world had never known One
structon yet vision of the real extent OF that
first insolence of Germany. =,
Then in the years that followed we learned to see in the
headlines only of the battle and to count the loss oil
human lives and destruction of property only as progress
or retrograde on the steep road to victory.
Today our ears still atuned to hear the noise OF con-
ct and now after the first hysterca joy at its coming
peace has, so speak. dumbounded There must be
sober thought now and sober realization Of the fact that
the problems greater than those OF war;
and that this nation pledged to aid to Lead the world
in their solution. -
For democracy and humanity waged war Of blood
and for democracy and humanity must fight on IN the
battle of upbuilding.
Let us think not Of release from duty until we are
sure duty is at an end
Let us say to ourselves mo Stacking No reaxa-
ton until peace in truth regns the earth with the sceptre

Say with Lincoln, "a. bind up the nations wounds

grain. This can be best accomplish
ed by certain ones being assigned to
mowers, others to rakes, etc. In this
manner less expensive machinerySwill
be required and the work will move
along on a more business like basis.
The business men are organizing
public reserves service to get out and
assist the farmer if necessary in
times TO the greatest need. You
should give them your utmost sup
port and encouragement as they will
not see the crops suffer through lack
of help to harvest. Don't expect a
man who has been on inside work
maybe for years., to burn up the fork
handle the first day. He will do his
best and do it willingly"
There are numerous calls for mar
ried men wanting to work on farms
the year through. If you have use
for such men, fix them up a two or
three room house and in this manner
secure farm help that will be steady
and dependable the yea through.
Stick to uniform wages, as there
is nothing that tends to standardise
work so quickly as the uniform wage.
The wage set by the Idaho State
Farm Bureau is on the same plan as
the balance of the western states.
$50 per month is higher by SO per
month that the wage of Idaho aver
aged for last year, so there is no
reason, if this is standard throughout
the state, why it should not prove
satisfactory to the employer and en-
Men who have been in the
employ for previous seasons are as
suredly worth more and any new
nan will be willing to accept work
IN this basis.

FARM BUREAU WORK
WILL HELP STATE
HELPS TO SOLVE LABOR PROB
LEM AND INCREASE YIELD.
MORE MEMBERS WANTED

At a conference held at st. An
thony, Idaho, recently, between M
J. Kerr, Federal State Director, U. S
Department of Labor and G. F. Tho
metz, Farm Help Specialist, U. S,
Department of Agriculture, the ne
cessity of perfect harmony between
local, county, state and federal la
Dor offices was fully considered.
Mr.. Thometz will assist the farm
bureaus in perfecting their organiza-
tions to handle the labor problems,
and to accomplish this end the follow
ing plan of cooperation with the farm
bureaus of the several counties of
the state was agreed upon:
1. The county farm bureau shall
have some energetic man in each
community, where necessary, appoin-
ted as a volunteer farm bureau agent
to attend strictly to the demands of
local requirements. When such can
not be met locally, this agent will
Immediately communicate with the
county farm bureau employment Of
flee, which, in turn, will cooperate
with the U. S. department of labor
in the district to which his county
belongs. The district agent will be
in direct touch with the headquarters
of the u S. Department of labor at
st. Anthony, Idaho, where the com
piled data for the supply and demand

of the labor conditions in the adjoin
ing states
2. Reports. Volunteer farm labor
agents will make all reports to the
county farm bureau labor agent, who
will, in turn, make his reports to the
district agent of the u. S. depart
ment of labor-the county agent will
be held responsible for this work
Blanks and frank envelopes will be
supplied. The district agent will
render, to the head office, a compiled
report from the various counties as
signed to him.
There is no time like the present to
do definite planning towards over
coming the farm help problem dur
ing the haying and harvesting peri
DDS. Last season there was consider
able difficulty during these periods
through lack of proper organization.
This should be overcome to secure
the maximum production from all
crops planted this year.
From indications so far received
through the state crop and labor sur-
vey, there will be a considerably
larger area of the grains planted this
season, while the labor situation does
not look much better. Don't be alar-
med because Of this, however, only
try and organize properly to over
come it.
If you are not a member of your
farm bureau, become one at
once as this organization is of in
estmable value to you at this time.
Know when you are going to want
a mar and try and secure him in
advance, but at all time do not ask

you are supplied, Immediately notify
