ming of the 1921 harvest season, ac-
cording to figures compiled today by

tion. ~.....
The federation 8 figures are based on
reports sent in by county farm bureaus

this year.
The returns, showing wages being
paid in each county for various classes
Of work, indicate the following aver
age rates Of pay for farm labor in
Minnesota:

manent help, and $1.98 day.

ell when unloading is done by hand,
and 3.s bushel when unloading is
done by elevator.
Potato picking4.S cents a bushe]
and $3.50 day. 49,: :.
Two months ago, a similar wage
survey. by the federation showed that
farmers were paying an average of 81

$45 for harvesting. In at least one
third Of the counties in Minnesota,
federation officers said, farmers now
are paying less than the $34 average;
Of the first 40 counties to report in

of assessing the West side sewers on
the grounds that same is unfair to per
sons owning property not directly BEN

should be graduated.
A., w. Taylor of the Water Power

The hearing on the assessment on the

he was opposed to taxing property.
