OFFICERS TO WORK
RESERVE STUDENTS FROM FORT
SHERIDAN ASSIGNED TO
HARVEST FIELDS.

Huron, July 10.--Eleven students
from the reserve officers training
camp at Fort Sheridan, ILL.,, have ar
rived in Huron and will be given
work on the farms of South Dakota
to assist in harvesting the 1918 crop
of grain, which promises to be one
of the biggest in the history of the
state. A
The eleven men are on a two
months fRrlough from active serv-
ice. They came here at the request
of the Huron labor office that men
be sen to the harvest fields of the
Dakotas. They will receive $50 a
month and their board from now un-
til harvest time and during the har-
vest period will be paid $3.50 a day
airy to approximately 500 a month.
The soldiers, all of whom are
studying to become officers in the
regular and national armies, are
more or less experienced farm hands.
A large majority of them are from
the southern states and their work
here will in all probability be a new
experience in farming for them.
They will be put at work in harvest
ing corn. n of the leading crops of
South Dakota.
Each of the IL men who have been
sent here by the Chicago labor office
have been assigned to work and will
leave here this week to commence
their duties. Others may arrive later
in the week, as C. II. Davis, head of
the Huron labor office, sent in a call
for 25 experienced men.
The men were not sent here under
government supervision. They paid
their W fare from their camp here
and also will pay their way to the
scene of their work. While they are
under the same rules as any other
soldier on furlough, they will be Civ
en- the same wages and work under
the same conditions as the civilian
farm hand.
The pay the men will receive Is an
exceptionally high wage. An excep-
tionally heavy crop and a shortage Of
help this season has made it impos-
sible to obtain competent, experience
ed farm help without high pay. The
harvest will start here within a few
days now and farmers are in need of
skilled men to assist them.
1t has been stated that so men
were on their way from Fort Sheri-
dan to Huron to take up work on
farms, but officials at the labor of
flee here had no information from
the Chicago office that that number
was being sent.

had been unable to verify them. AS
near as he could learn a few Non.

in Ramona. but whether for conven.

observation in the Ramona neighbor,
hood is that many farmers who were
in sympathy with the new party in
the early summer have since with.
drawn from it.
