UNIQUE PLAN IN HARVESTING
Farmers In Nebraska District Get
Their Wheat Cut and Shocked
in Record Time.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
Farmers Of the st. Paul district in
Nebraska worked out a unique plan
for getting their wheat cut and shock
ed in record time. Articles were writ.
ten by the county agent and published
in the local press to the effect that it
would be necessary to build up local
organization to help save the wheat
crop. It was decided to have bank
er, the secretary of the commercial
club. and the county agent take care
Of the matter, with the agent as chair.
man.
The agent worked out plan which
was approved by the committee to
have all the farmers report by two
o'clock each day and list the number
Of acres already cut and ready to be
shocked that evening. A card or
chart was placed at the post Office at
five o'clock each day. This Informs
ton was telephoned to all the towns
in the county, which enabled the COM
mittee to distribute the available Ia
Dor to the best advantage. From 80
to so men were sent out each evening
to help shock wheat, receiving so cents
an hour for their labor.
The records were kept in the office
Of the county agent. Every man going
out reported each day and the number
Of hours worked on each farm. The
clerk Of the farm-labor bureau made
out q total bill when the Job was fin
ished and the farmers paid the labor
ers for their services by one check.

mercial beef; and, finally, commercial
dairying in addition to the business of
meat production.
Throughout the world the cattle in
dustry shows general growth, but has
made its greatest advance in regions
where pasturage and feeds are more
abundant.
The recent trend Of cattle develop
ment indicates that beef production
and dairying are progressing, gen.
orally. outside the immediate war area.
Countries which, depend largely on
imported feeds appear to maintain
relatively few cattle in addition to
their dairy cows. which have gradu-
ally replaced other cattle.
Less F!uctuation In Cows.
Dairy cows have shown less fluctu-
alton in number than total cattle. This
condition is noteworthy throughout the
world over long periods including ad.
verse conditions, such as disease,
drought and war.
European experiences indicate that
when a country has reached the prac-
teal limit of cattle the land will main

attention to economy Of production /;
and third, by maintenance Of cattle
