JOBS ON
N. D. FARMS NOW

The farmers OF North Dakota are
beginning to prepare for haying and
harvest season, according to reports
at the United States labor bureau in
Fargo. The bureau at the present
time has number of orders for farm
help, which it has been unable to
fill, it was said yesterday.
In other words the supply of farm
hands is not equal to the demand.
"Eyery capable farm hand who wants
to work can get job now in this To-
cality," was the word handed out at
the bureau.
Some time ago the local bureau
sent out questionnaires to the farm
ers of the state to ascertain what the
labor needs on the farms would be
this season. Only few OF these have
been returned to the bureau and the
most of these gave no estimate, but
the statement that they wish to wait
and see what the crop will amount to
first. 49, -
:" Harvest is now in full swing in Me-
braska and Kansas, it was reported.
The grain ripened earlier in that sec:
ton this wear than had been expected
with the result that harvest found the
farmers omewhat short handed. This
was quickly remedied, according to
the labor bureau, and there is now
plenty of help to handle the crops
there.
There is big demand for female
workers in the homes, both on the
farm and in the cities of this state, the
federal labor bureau reports. Many

season tends to aggravate this stu
alton in the rural districts.
But if there are plenty Of jobs in
the country the reverse is the situa..
ton in Fargo. A large number Of
men are looking for jobs. here Sand
cannot land one. When there is an
opening of any kind there are several
after it and it is snapped up right
away. These men do not want to
work on the farm either because. Of
lack of experience or a desire to stay
in the CITY.

The famous park board case is up
before Judge Englert this morning at
the court house. Several months ago
the park board endeavored to buy
what is known as the Mudgett grove
across the river for a park, now own
ed we believe by the Northwest MUIR
sery Co. There was a big objection
to buying this park by many citizens Of
the town and an injunction was serv-
ed restraining the sale until the mat
ter could be settled by the court. The
arguments on this injunction will be
heard today before the judge. Tomor-
row is the last day that the park board
can purchase this land under the new
law unless the people vote in the af-
firmative. The outcome of this case
will be watched with much interest by
those interested.

We read in the papers the other day
that Henry Ford-or the Ford Motor
Company had made a profit, of some
eighteen million dollars during the
month of May. This is a very mod
crate profit and it is no wonder that
Ford can play the role of philantho-
pist. If they can make so much profit
in one month it seems to US that they
can still manufacture the Ford car tor
considerable less money.

The difference between the indepen-
dent campaign and the nonpartisan is
just about $150,000. The latter are
working the people up into frenzy to
get them to raise one hundred and
fifty thousand dollars for campaign
propaganda, giving them in return as
a prize, once in a while an Aire-
dale pup, valued at SO to $25. This
stimulates them to greater efforts in
getting the money separated from the
people. On the other hand the indie
pendents are doing their work by vol
unteers and in many places in the
country farmers are signing the recall
petitions stronger than they voted for
O'Connor last fall. There seems to be
no doubt about getting enough sigma
lures on the petitions. Many farm
ers have been hanging or hoping to
get relief from the present admins
tration have become TIED of waiting
and have found ols that their hopes
have been blasted. They are not say
ing much these days but wait until it
comes times to vote-they will talk
then and talk in the right direction.

Another most satisfying outcome
of this administration is the gasoline
tax which does not appear on your tax
record but which every consumer pays
every time he buys a gallon of gaso-
line. Every time a North Dakota
farmer buys five gallons of gasoline
he pay practically one cent per gallon
more than he can buy it for across the
bridge at Fargo on the: Minnesota line.
This tax makes quite total during
the year and if that were added to
your other taxes would make very
big raise in taxes. The only differ
ence being that you pay this tax d.:
rectly when you buy your gas instead
of walking up to the county treasurer
and paying it with your other taxes.

After a long and weary wait the
United States will declare that war
with Germany is at an end. A COM
promise resolution declaring peace has
finally been agreed upon by both
houses of congress and President
Harding will get the measure for his
signature the latter part Of the week.
AS was to be expected the democrats
are against the government and do
not want peace evidently believing
that the policy Of watchful waiting so
noticeable in the Wilson administra-
ton, is the best-anyway they op-
posed the resolution, preferring to re-
main in state Of "scrap" than be at
peace. Those democrats are hard to
suit, anyway. Here is the text of
the resolution as agreed upon by con-
gress: $3.50.

BY a record vote of $50 to SO, the
house of representatives atWashington
yesterday passed the anti-beer bill.
The bill passed is designed to prevent
the sale of beer to the sick. The SEN
ate had already passed similar bill
and this bill now goes to the senate
for action by that body and it is ex-
pected to pass that body some time
this week. The alarming amount of
sickness that was forecasted before
this bill came along and blasted the
hopes of the vets, will now diminish
and the country will return to nor
malcy along these lines. Beer is a
mighty poor medicine for sickness and
if it had been allowed we rather think
that the health of the country would
have shown a remarkable backward
step as the demand for beer became
stronger each day.

Later March said. out Of his solnber

Lexington could make no reply. 1t
seemed that March remembered his
bride as she was eighteen years ago.
Time had not, until now. touched that

"And they have taken my little

until she Is no longer mine but theirs.
She refuses to go to America. my own

Con was overwhelmed. He stretched

"We're not done for" said Leving-

Lexington was alarmed concerning
his friend. who was slipping deeper
Into dependency. He forgot his work
for the United States government, his
long labors IN the name Of humanity,
and all his thought centered upon his
personal disaster. He was close to n
tragic unbalance. Lexington said
quickly:
Bat Helen says her mother Is not
really dead. You have yourself told
me that this life Is but the camp Of

better air Of the hills is Just beyond"
