Farm Work.

Denver. Dec 24-One wife for each
man IN the cities two for each man on the
farms this is what George Smith, q
Colorado farmer. suggests 70 Governor
Shoup rs solution Of the farm problem,
IN a letter received AT tho governors office.
Adoption of the sugeCs ion, Smith be-
lieyes. viii make Governor Shoup n
greater man than Lincoln, but the COVER
nor has not decided whether he will in
clude Smith 5 suggestion in his message TO
the legislature rs one OF the proposed
measures for the relief Of the Colorado
farmer. Smith gives a number Of reasons
IN support of his suggestion. Here IS what
he has To say.
II am farmer seven miles south OF
Denver. My wife is sick and can hire
any house help. You arc a good governor,
or the people wouldn' have elected you by
such large majority the second time.
You should originate some good help for
farmers, and offer you something 70 help
the farmers and you can lead all the other
governors If you can get II made law.
1T Is. let the city men have one wife
and the farmers have two wives. You see,
one could help the other, and a farmer
could more surely raise boys TO work the
farm and not need to hire at high wages
Then the farmers could sell crops cheap
and make money, and living in cities
would be cheaper. and many young men
would leave cities 10 he on farm and
have two wives.
II tell you this argument about farm
ers TO be organized is all bosh. A farmer
needs no theories ! am certain farmer
can't get any help unless it is born and
raised ON farm. Experience is needed
every time.
"You would be better man than
Lincoln If you can get the United States to
let all the farmers have two wives Yon
see. tho farmer would be independent IF
hired help in few years. both on farm
and in housework A farmer could often
marry two sisters or good pals am your
friend and believe this. if it can be started
hv you. viii excel all you can ever do whllo
governor or IN your life Think Il over
