Harvest Help Reported
Generally Abundant

Advices received by the Department
Of Agric.:ture from its agents in the
field indicate that there will be no gen.
eral shortage of labor for the wheat
harvest, and that in some areas there
will be a decided surplus.
In Kansas. where the harvest begins
about June is in the southern tier of
counties, the supply of labor is already
in excess of the demand. In that state
wages for shockers do not run over
$3 a day with board and lodging.
In Texas. where harvest is already
in progress. there seems to be labor
enough to meet all demands. with the
possible exception of the Panhandle
district In Texas harvest wages run
from 81 to $3.50 day.
In thu northern wheat states the sit
uation has not yet developed sufficient
~ to make possible reliable estimates
as to demands for outside labor, but
it seems probable that the labor mar
kct will be comparatively easy in most
localities. with the prevailing wage not
over SO a day.
