FARMERS FEAR
DROP IN PRICE
Hesitate to Pay High Wages on
Chance that Crop Will Bring
Big Price Next Year.
gy GEORGE B. WATERS

Washington. April iS..Who is to
blame for the shortage of farm labor
Many farm laborers have discovered
that they can make more by going into
industry and have deserted the farms.
Farm owners are complaining they
cannot compete with industry. and
many of them are actually curtailing
the acreage.
Farm employers are refusing to raise
wages, because they say the prices of
commodities will be lower at market
ing time this year than last, and that if
they invest in labor at a high price
now and depend on future market
for their crops, they are taking grave
chances on losing money.
The workers say: That's what you
have been telling US all the time. and
as a result we have let you bambooZle
us into taking less for our work in
proportion to what the crops sold for
than we got before prosperity hit the
country"
1t is fear on the part of the farm
employers, that makes the acreage and
the crop production for 1920 uncertain.
1t is We'll to recall here that many
farmers last year got scared At high
wages, thinking prices would fall As
a result they missed the opportunity
of making big profits.
The farmers who have taken a
chance are the ones that have made
big money" stated an official of the
bureau of crop estimates And unless
panic hits the country. which is not
likely, those who meet the high wages
and grow full crops are the ones who
will make killing this year
In 1910 the farmer got 4S cents a
bushel for his corn, IS cents for his
wheat and IA cents pound for his cot
ton, and in 1919 these RESPECTIVE prices
were Si.39, S2i5 and So cents. highest
in 10 years. except corn dropped two
cents the last year.

Council of the allies at its first for

tion will not be dweh upon.
Many perplexing questions are to
come before the council, including dis
position of the Turkish problem in
Guiding the Dardanelles, the policing
of Constantinople, control of the po-
lice force, etc.
other subjects for discussion include
the condition of internal exchange, the
Italian industrial position, because of

is the question of compelling Germany
to fulfill the treaty of Versailles.

.tative. which declares that the offense
is not extradictable.
Berlin, April 1S.-The situation in
upper SiIesia is very serious accord
ing to a semi i-official dispatch re-
ceived here today. A general strike
which threatens to reach all trades
and professions, appears imminent as
a consequence of the entente COM
missions alleged interference in the
administration of justice and the po-
liticaI rights of Silesians in the PIE
biscite area.
London, April IS With reference

RATS, START AFTER

RATS, which cause considerable loss u
Iowa farmers, should be fought consist
emily, say the biological department, o.
the United States department of agri
culture. Rats reproduce so rapidly thai
a spasmodic raid on them is not lasting
They begin to bear young when three
months old and have six to ten filters
per year with an average Of ten young
per litter.
The best method Of control Is to make
rat proof buildings so the pests cannot
get inside and eat. All waste food
should be disposed of so the rats can
not get it.
Where it is possible poison should be
given them and barium carbonate is q
satisfactory killer. Traps should also
be kept going as in the past. Bait them
with fresh meat, nuts or vegetables
and they will get the rats.

HARVEST POTATOES WITH
CARE u

! Potatoes should be treated with care
| If they are to be preserved during the
! winter months and into spring. The
horticultural department of Iowa State
college has hints which will help out
/ In digging the potatoes be careful not
them exposed to the sun for a length OF
time. Bruises allow bacteria to enter
and the potatoes soon rot in these spots.
One rotten potato in bushel in stor-
age will ruin them all. If they are left
in the sun they will become sunburned
or green and this ruins the eating quail
ity as the potatoes are rank and bitter.
In storing the potatoes, see that the
bin is properly cleaned out before the
potatoes are deposited there. Special
care should be taken with seed potatoes.
Washing the bin with forrnalin solution
first is a good plan The potato bin
should be dark, protected from heat and
cold and have good ventilation and not
collect moisture. Any Of these factors
will aid disease and ruin the potatoes.
Care in keeping dirt and trash out of
the potatoes when they are deposited in
the bin often saves many potatoes. This
material keeps air from circulating and
the potatoes heat and soon decay.
In figuring storage for potatoes allow
40 pounds TO the cubic foot.
Ken Dobler, Of Vail, is using space
in this paper to tell ABOUT 80 head Of
Duroc Jersey boars he has for sale.
