FARM LABOR COSTS.

Farm wages are now the highest In
our history, which Is in line with
wages in almost all lines, however
The government estimates show that
farm labor by the month, averaging
the country as whole in 1919, was
$50 80, with board, and $56.29 without
board. West of the Mississippi harvest
wages reached the top figure OF $4.4s
with board.
Monthly wages with board were the
highest in the western states and the
lowest in the south Atlantic states. In
the Pacific states the farm hand
averaged $62 96, with board, and $S7.12
without board. Compared with what
manufacturers are paying, the hired
man" who really worked should nave
earned his keep. But when this money
and more, is paid for eight hours. in
the busy season, especially, 1t is a
heavy load for the farmer to carry.

stay by our post and produce what We
can. Sell OUR surplus at the price we
are offered; pay the price for what
labor we get; working longer hours to
furnish the rest and hope for a better
year in 1921.
PAUL L. OLER-In regard to the
farm production for 1920, / think 1t
will be cut down in this vicinity. On
account Of the two reasons-the short
age Of labor and we, as other business
men, cannot run our business on a
losing basis. The production on our
farm will be cut down this year, and
on most all other stock and grain
farms. All machinery and manufac'
tured products that the farmers are
required to buy have advanced In the
last twelve months, while all farm pro-
ducts such as the stock farmers have

MAKING THE WORLD SAFE FOR
DEMOCRACY"

Mr.. Herbert S. Houston, chairman
of the committee on information of

just returned from Europe, and does
not agree with Mr.. Harding that the
League of Nations "is an irredeem.
able failure"
This paper makes a single extract
from his Illuminating report.
Mr.. Houston says:
"The feeling that one brings back
from Europe, in the summer OF 1920,
is that the League of Nations is a
sheer necessity. In the Versailles
treaty it stood as a promise of inter
national cooperation, but in the days
that have followed, it has steadily TAX.

chaos"
Mr.. Harding ought to get off his
front porch, mingle with other poo
pie besides the enemies of the presi.
dent, and get in touch with those who
are STRIVING to make the world safe
for democracy"
