FARMERS WANT
LAW REPEALED
York and Adams Agricultur-
lists Regard Daylight Saving
Hostile to Their Interests

York. Pa. June 9.-Congressman
Edward S. Brooks. of this city, de-
clares that farmers of York and
Adams counties. are adding their
voices to the Glamour for the repeal
of the daylight saving law and he
has received many letters and petit
tons calling upon him TO lend his
influence in securing the repeal. The
farmers appear as a class. 70 regard
the law as hostile to their interests.
Their plea is that they work by the
sun and that no amount of clock
changing can alter the fixed laws of
nature They therefore, are bound
TO lose money and time if they OBJ
serve the change of hours. one of
the remonstrances, in burst of sar-
casm, suggests that the advocates of
daylight-saving also see that the dew
dries from the grass an hour earlier
and that the COWS be educated to
the need of giving their milk in time
to fit in with the advanced schedule
of the milk train.
The farmers say that in conformity
TO the change of the clock, the men
engaged in the work of haymaking
present themselves for work when
the grass is so heavy with dew that
they cannot cut it. and thus much
time is lost. Likewise, at the other
end of the day, the helper leaves
them when the sun is still high.
