cruiting secretary of the woman s land
army Of America, arrived in Portland

Ogilvie this afternoon and tomorrow

The woman's land army does not at
tempt to take the places Of the men
in the fields, but considers its mission
done when it has filled the vacancies
which would otherwise cause a delay
or loss of the crop. During the sum
mer of 1918 the farmerette worked
in twenty states supplying l5,00U Ia
forers from Massachusetts, to Califor-

than 1900 women worked in the fields
of Oregon under the direction of Mrs.

selves.

TREMENDOUS JOB TO
INCREASE OUR PRODUCTION

In this emergency we have tried to
do our part. We secured tie country
for raw materials-our traffic manager
spent his days riding freight cars in
we shipped raw materials in carload
lots by express and pleaded with man
ufaeturers to increase their deliveries
to u.s.
But it was slow process. Some of
our raw materials are produced only
in Japan-supphes in this country were
low and shipments required three
months to come from the Far East.
Then we had to recruit and train skill
ed labor. We brought our statesmen in
to the factory and trained them as fore
men. We invented new machinery, and
managed to install it on Christmas day,
so as not to interfere with our daily
production.
