cAN,T Farm BY TIME CLOCK

1T is unreasonable 10 think that
the farmers can adopt an eight-hour
day" says B. II. Hibbard, economist,
al the University OF Wisconsin College
OF Agriculture.
In the first place it would be i'm
possible to set a time for beginning
or quitting work on the farm. All
sorts OF things like the weather con-
ditions and the time OF the year in
fiuence the farmer in his work. Eight
hours a day at certain seasons OF the
wear would not get farm work done.
Farmers will work from daylight
to dark during the haying season or
threshing time in order to get their
crops in while the weather Is good IL
5 o'clock were quitting time they
would run the risk Of having part OF
the crop ruined. Then, too, the farm
er is working for himself, and by
voting shorter his own hours, lessons
the amount Of work he can do, and
decreases his income that much with
out benefiting any one.
1T is not probable that unions will
be formed among farmers or farm
hands" believes Mr.. Hibbard. Since
the large majority OF farm hands are
neighborhoOd boys who hope TO have
farms OF their own in ten years, they
are willing to work toward that end.
The average mechanic on the other
hand. expects to be only a mechanic
at the end of ten years and so 1t not
willing to work long hours with moth
ing TO look forward TO.
What If farm hands formed unions
and adopted a neighbour dayf" asks
Mr.. Hibbard. why, the farmer. in
order to keep up his work, would be
forced to resort to milking machines
and other mechanical devices to help
him after his hands quit at o'clock.
This would check the increase in the
demand for farm labor
