Growers Vote Not
To Rdise Wages

Members of the Big Horn
County Beet Growers Associa-
ton voted unanimously not to
raise the wages of beet laborers
above the present contract price
at a meeting of beet growers
and business men Saturday
night in the community room
OF the courthouse here.
Growers who offered wages
above the contract price would
monopolize the labor supply
while other growers would suf-
fer from the lack of labor, it
was stated.
The meeting, presided over by
]. A. Koebbe, was called to dis
cuSs the labor situation in this
area. It was brought out that
some labor would be available
from North Dakota soon, as well
as from other sources.
Beet workers already here
have not been able to work due
to wet weather, while other beet
raising areas have started to
slice beets.
The closing of the public
schools to allow students to aid
in the beet harvest did not
seem probable, it was stated:
v. I. Morris and L. Roy Cool
of the Holly Sugar Corporation
were present at the meeting.
1t was reported that a vote
taken among factory workers
here showed that they would al
so work in the beet fields ii

Employment Offers
Their Services

Sensing a shortage of beet
laborerS in this area acquisitions
have been forwarded recently
to Colorado, New Mexico and
California by the local office of
the Montana State Employment
service, Glenn Knight stated.
Results of a survey show a
scarcity of experienced beet la
Dor in all sections which have
been contacted. The M.S.E.S. Is
now making an open appeal to
farm laborerS and others who
may be able to assist in the
beet harvest in this area to
contact Glenn Knight, manager
of the Hardin M.S.E.S. office,
or L. Roy Cool, agricultural sup
erintendent of the Holly Sugar

Wages being paid are 80 cents
per ton for the first twelve tons
topped per acre and 70 cents

stated. At this rate of pay ex-
perienced workers may earn as
much as 6 to 8 dollars per day
during harvesting operations
which will last approximately
six weeks.

KIWANlS HEAR
.AG PROGRAM
George w. Gustufson
Explains Pldns
For Defense

George w. Gustafson, county
extension agent, explained the
agricultural defense program to
the members Of the Kiwanis
club at their regular meeting
held Wednesday noon in the
basement of the Methodist
church. President B. II. McCarty
presided.
County agent Gustafson sta
ted that the curtailment pro-
gram on most farm commodities
that has been in effect is now
changed and an increase in pro-
duction is expected. The in
crease is wanted in beef, pork,
eggs, milk, oats, barley, corn,
hay and other farm products,
he stated.
He said that the United States
now had enough wheat in Stor-
age to care for this country's
need for a period of two years
without raising another buShel,
and that there must be a cur
tailment in the production of
this commodity.
Increase in the production Of
garden products IS also called
for by the program. Every farm
er and city dWeller who has the
space is urged to plant a gar
den next spring.
It was stated that the pur-
pose of this desired increase in
agricultural products Is not only
to take care of domestic needs
but TO provide food in the de-
mocracieS of Europe, and fur
ther to provide a storage for
use when peace may come. A
surplus of foodStuffS would be
a very valuable asset in making
peace plans, the speaker said.
Although Montana and Big
Horn county may not see any
activity in war defense produc-
ton, such as is keeping the in
duStrial states busy, the agri-
cultural defense program will
in time be considered as valu-
able as the industrial program.
This will place farming states
in a most formidable position,
he stated.
Other business 10 come before
the Kiwanis club was the read
ing of the invitation of the
Sheridan, Mont, club to attend
their charter night program on
Oct. Is.
Harold Doolen, member of the
Billings Kiwanis club, was a
visitor at the luncheon.
