BLACKBIRD
Scarcity of Labor Around Here and

Scarcity VI LdDOI AIOuNu LlCIC dilu
Up Country Worries Farmers
Blackbird, March 20.-An acute
shortage of labor is being felt by the
farmers as the busiest season begins.
On the eve of another crop season the
farmers, truckers and dairymen of
this section are confronted by the
most acute shortage of dependable
labor that has been in evidence since
the war. So serious has the situation
become that many farmers are frank
ly confessing grave fears that they
may experience considerable difficulty
in obtaining sufficient help to guaran-
tee the planting of their early crops
and with such a pronounced scarcity
of labor now it is believed that con-
ditions will be particularly alarming
when the season arrives for cultivat-
ing and harvesting the crops. Al
though offers are being made of from
S25 to $50 per month, with the usual
lay-in of provisions, house rent, fire.
wood and other incidentals that usual
ly accompany farm contract between
the agriculturist and farm labor, men
are reported almost unprecedentedly
scarce. These terms are said to COM
pare very favorably with the offer
ings of farmers in other parts of the
country, and agficulturists are at Z
loss to understand the sudden appar
ent shrinkage in the volume of farm
labor.
Rachel E., infant daughter of 3Ir
and Mrs. W. A. Watson, Jr., died sud
denly on Monday, of last week. age
one month.
Extensive Improvements are beini
made to the old Colonial mansion
known as "Silver Lake Grange" b
William FOrtner, the new owner.
