TRANSIENT HARVEST HAND

The following article was published
in the last issue of the Ellis Head
light and while it has direct refer
ence to anything which has happened
in WaKeeney it is of general interest
and contains some good thought IN
reference to the transient harvest
hands who come here each year and
help with the harvest work. 1t is too
late for any of the suggestions con-
tanned therein to be put INTO practice
this year but it may act as seed from
which some good. may develop for the
future. We are publishing the article
by request:
1.-The open air meeting held in the
City Park, Sunday evening was quite
well attended Rev. G. E. Spalding's
remarks to and for the harvest hands
were highly appreciated by the audi
ence, both the home folks and the
havest hands, who were present
There are a great many of US who do
not look at both sides of the case in a
fair and conservative manner until it
is too late. Being in the wheat grow
ing belt year in and year out, and be-
ing compelled to depend on foreign
labor once a year, from one TO three
months, harvest and threshing ode
pending on CROP and with the pronis-
cuous newspaper ads from all parts of
the state for more or less hundreds of
harvest hands, which is also copied by
many newspapers foreign to the har-
vest fields, there is wonder there
would be surplus of help shipping
to the wheat field especially in a year
like this with many factories closing
We must remember that man y of
these men come from homes direct to
harvest fields, leaving a wife and chill
dren or their old mother or father, or
| both, dependent upon them for sup
| port. The larger per cent of them,
to say the least, have mothers and
fathers and they should receive treat

ment accordingly until we find out
they don't deserve it. They should
not be driven out from the shade of
our parks so long as we allow the cats
and dogs to roam there at large.
When there is hoId-up pulled off we
should treat it as business PROPOSE
ton and be sure we blame the right
parties and not try to impIicate all
the strangers in our midst. A large
majority of them are here by special
request and their presence is apprec-
lated by wheat growing farmers as
has been proven for they take them
out to their farms to harvest their
wheat, bring them back to town and
the hands tell US they were treated
just like home folks and the next
harvest they come to our business
men and inquire for the same farmer
and that is why we say we should
treat this matter a business prop
osition next year. Hold a meeting of
business men, arrange to give these
men reading matter, i. e., give them
second hand dailies as the most of us
are through with our morning paper
in a short time, and that one paper
will soon serve fifteen or twenty of
the strangers. On a stormy night
| they could be shielded. A practice
similar to this would be as a matter
of compulsion because many of these
men spend their money with us, but
because they cannot nearly all find
accommodations and for the reason
that it would WELD an influence for
good feeling among the men They
could be employed much easier by the
farmer because we would easily gain
| their confidence and among them are
worlds of good, intelligent men and
| boys with good education.-CoI. Ep-
| pier and the business men with whom
| he has talked.

County Odd Fellow Meetings.

The subordinate lodges of the Odd
Fellows have been holding monthly
meetings in the district this last year
to increase interest in the working
of the order, and to increase brotherly
feeling one to another.
The next meeting OF the series is to
be held in Streator on November Odd
and as the Streator lodge is one of the
largest in the district, numbering over
seven hundred, it is fair to expect that
that meeting will be the largest and
one of the most enthusiastic of the
year.
Marseilles are counting on sending
a large delegation, and hope to be only
one OF the many lodges well repre-.
scented there.
