FARM LABOR IN
 CAMPS TAbULATED
 BY B. [. SAMUELS
Practically 50 Per Cent of Men in Service Give Farm ing as Their Former
 Occupation

In their efforts to place as many men on the farms during the winter and sprin 2 as possible the representatives of the United States employment service in Ala bama are meeting with considerable success. Reports from local agencies in the different cities state that not only are soldiers who left the farm to go into the army returning to the farms upon their discharge, but men who deserted the farms in other years for work in the cities are going back to make crops.
 Since the beginning of the year sev- eral hundred men, most of them with families, have arranged through the employment service for farm homes and the number passing through the local offices is increasing daily.
 B. E. Samuels, state director of farm labor, has tabulated the reports received by him from the different local agencies and the cards sent in by the camp com manders to the state director containing names, addresses and former occupations of soldiers being discharged. Speaking of these matters he said:
 
 Tt is noted from the cards sent from the camps to the office of the federal director of the men being discharged that at least half of the men from Ala bama give their former occupations as farmers. No doubt many of these are returning to their homes to again take up their former work, but many changes take place, and these cards of the dis charged men are sent to the office of the United States employment service nearest the home of the soldier, and inquiries are made as to whether the soldier has a place by the officer in charge of the employment service. Lists of places open are kept on file, and special encourage ment is being made by the offices in Ala bama to encourage returning men to take up farm work where their past experience best fits them for this occupation. From Dothan we have report that out of bS soldiers who have returned since January 1, 40 applications to the United States employment office for farm work and were placed in suitable locations.
 ''The office of the employment service in Birmingham has, since January l, placed on farms, 1855, considerable por- ton of which are men with families, and a goodly number of discharged sol- diers. In order to keep any surplus of returning soldiers from accommodating in the larger cities, and since these boys of ours who are coming back, deserve the best, it is incumbent upon the farmers in each community of the state to improve their farms, build and repair tenant houses, and when a man is hired for wages, pay the discharged soldier, who has done his part to save civilization, the very best possible wages, furnish him with horse and buggy to use on Sunday not make the hours of work unreasno- ably long, and make the home attrac- tive We must all take broad view of the future, and pull together for the best interests of our state and nation By doing this, we will make this a great year for the agricultural interests of the state.''
