SHORTAGE OF.
HELL!
Is BEING MET
More LabOrers Now Coming
Into State, According to
Labor Director

Fargo. N. D., Aug. 3O-Althourh a
shortage in farm labor developed dur
ing the past week, il is gradually be-
ing met and more men are coming
into the state as . result Of recruit
ing by agents Of the United States
employment service. according to
George f. Tucker. director Of the
farm labor division who Is maintain
ing temporary headquarters here.
There was an appreciable increase
in Fargo Saturday and Grand Forks
reported the situation somewhat re-
lieved, ~" Tucked said.
With the favorable weather at the
beginning of last week, all available
labor was absorbed and since there
has been q scramble for men through
territory as far west as Minot with
greatest demands at Devils Lake and
Grand Forks. The central districts,
the northwestern counties and Mon
tana are we'll supplied with mer. Mr..
Tucker declared.
Rainy Weather lnterfered
The first three weeks Of August
with rainy, unsettled weather, re
suited in the loss of many men who
turned back home or went on TO the
northwest.
In previous years, said Mr.. Tucker,
fully 30 per cent Of the outside labor
ers required to care for North Dako-
ta's small grain crops have come from
Oklahoma and Kansas fields, moving
| with the harvest through Nebraska
and South Da0kta into North Dakota.
With short crops in Nebraska and
! South Dakota This year and no de-
mands for outside help, men released
| in Kansas July could not be moved
to North Dakota for an August
| harvest.
"The labor needs of the state have
been great despite all Impressions TO
the contrary and fully 10000 outside
laborers have already been brought
into North Dakota and at no time
has there been . surplus OF IN
employed men except when harvest
activity was stopped by moisture.
