EMERGENCY LABOR
FOR OKLAHOMA FARMS

The federal government working in
conjunction with the various state
councils, is making preparations to
meet the demand for labor during the
c,ming harvest season.
This campaign will be in addition
to the big drive for regular farm la
Dor and in addition to the Boys
Working Rerserve 1t will be aimed
at getting men who can give but part
time for this work enrolled for emer-
gency service. The government has
been making appeals to the farmers
TO increase their acreage The farm
ers of Oklahoma and other states
have been responding splendidly to
this appeal. This will mean a tre-
mcndous demand for labor when the
crops begin to come in.
The aims of the campaign are to
encourage the farmer, to get back
temporarily on the farms men who are
familiar with such labor, but have
gwen it up, and to impress on cities
