TURNOVER OF FARMS
NEARLY 20 PER CENT
Greatest Change in Ownership 0c-
CURED in South in 1922,
U. S. Figures Show.

Almost a fifth of the country's
farms had new occupants in 1922.
Nine southern states showed changes
the Department of Agriculture an
hounced today after d survey of the
situation, and only six states. all in
New England. showed less than 10
per cent change in their farm occu-
pants. In most of. the corn belt and
western states changes ranged from
10 to Is per cent
The chief cause of the turnover is
believed by agricultural experts to
be the attractiveness of new land
which, in the past, has set up waves
or migration among the farm popula-
tion. Another cause is seen in the
extent to which farm land has been
bought and sold for investment and
speculation. In addition, the rapid
industrialization Of the United States.
besides producing steady movement
of population to the cities, brings
about constant changes in market
opportunities and necessitates read
justmentS in systems of farming and
in sizes of farms, while different
classes OF farmers in this country
move in considerable number from
one agricultural status to another.
The great fiuidity of American eco
nomic and social life, the experts
said, also tends to create conditions
which make for shifting. since farm
ers dissatisfied with the land they oc-
cupy are not deferred from moving
by the risk of not finding another
farm Immediately available. Some
shifting is more or less aimless, they
concede. but much of the fiuidity rep
resents desirable economic and social
establishments.

LIMITED WORK HOURS
FOR WOMEN UPHELD
Supreme Court Holds New York
Law Constitutional Restriction
Upon Labor.
NIGHT POSITIONS AFFECTED
Case Involved Restaurant Job End
ing at 10 O'Clock.

States may legally limit the hours
of work Of women in certain indus
tries and prohibit their employment
after certain hours at night, the Su-
preme Court declared yesterday in a
decision sustaining the constitution
ality of a New York labor law.
The case was brought by Joseph
falo. who was convicted of having
permitted a waitress to work after
10 o'clock at night in violation Of
the act of 1917.
Pointing out that there was good
reason for believing that the New
York legislature had correctly con-
ciuded that the injurious conse-
quences of night employment were
more pronounced unon women than
upon men, the Supreme Court. in an
opinion delivered by Justice Suther-
land, held that the law under attack
was not an undue and arbitrary in
reference with the liberty of con-
tract between adults in the matter
OF employment.
Minimum Wage Case.
The minimum wage case, recently
decided by the Supreme Court, in
which, 1T was held that an act of
Congress fixing wages was unconsti-
tutional, presented an entirely diff
ferent question, the court said. The
fact that the New York law excludes
from its operation women employed
in restaurants as singers and per-
formers, attendants in ladies' cloak
rooms and kitchens of hotels and in
lunchroom or restaurants conducted
by employers solely for the benefit
OF their employees. did not render the
law invalid, Justice Switzerland de-
clared. The court had we'll estab-
lished, he said, that such a provision
did not render law vulnerable as a
denial OF equal protection under the
laws
The question as to what extent the
employment of women should be per-
mltted is one. he said, for the legis-
Iatures of the states TO determine
When laws have been enacted to pro-
htbit employment detrimental to the
health OF women, the courts. the
opinion said, must go slow in setting
them aside, and cannot do so when
the harmful effect of the prohibited
employment is a fairly debatabIe
question.
