FARM WAGE THE TOPIC
IT'S DISCUSSED BY STATE
BUREAU BOARD
Survey Has Been Made Among
The AgricuIturalists of
Minnesota

Unless farmers of the northwest
can obtain competent help at $35 to
$40 month, including board and
room, there will be few men hired
during the coming crop season. &C
cording to members of the executive
committee of the Minnesota Farm
Bureau federation, who are meeting
at the old capitol in st. Paul. The
farm wage situation is one of the i'm
portant problems that the board will
consider.
Secretary F. L. French has received
returns from sixteen counties in q
survey of the state that he is taking
to determine, If possible, the senti-
ment among farmers as TO what they
will be willing to pay. Thus far $2s
Is the lowest that any farmer has
offered and $45 is the highest.
said President L. e. Potter. 1--WE are
simply gathering facts. In the past
much time has been lost by men NOV
ing from one section of the country to
the other on reports that better
wages are obtainable at such and
such a place. We feel that our eff
forts along the line will be as bene-
fetal to labor as to the farmers, as il
VIII prevent mucn i0St motion.
The Wage Discussion.
The discussion of the farm wage
problem Is the. outgrowth of a meet
ing that was recently held at Wheat
on, at which farm bureau officials
from North and South Dakota and
Minnesota met with employment bu
reau men to plan a program to ex-
and fall.
Cost of production surveys in the
state will be discussed at the meeting,
The farm bureau hopes to obtain the
passage of bill now before the leg
islature which will expand the cost
surveys now being made by the agri.
cultural college by establishing sta.
tons in the Red River valley and in
the northeast section of the state.
