Star Stan Writer


The servant situation. from
the employers standpoint, is
a sorry one.
With individual variations.
the story follows the same
pattern over and over.
Because the domestic is
required to come early and
stay late, the working mother
is often afraid to ask for any
mileage in the cleaning or
household chore department.
Has Fears
Added to this attitude is
the alWays-with-mother fear
that at any future date she
may be delayed in arriving
home thus neceSsitating the
maids staying on even later
in emergency instances.
Meanwhile, she is paying
top scale wages, plus carfare
to and from the job, while
supplying breakfast, lunch
and often a dinner snack for
the domestic.
"She won't live in, she's not
keeping the house clean, but
she's good about staying in
an emergency" is the oft
repeated lament.
IT hesitate to take a chance
on losing her which would
leave us in a desperate way
before finding another. A new
one might be even worse"
adds one working wife.
Solving the long transpor-
tation problem, one employ
ment agency transports its
domestics to and from the
Virginia suburbs each day in
a feet of station wagons.
The service insures a strict
eight-hour daily schedule for
the domestic. And woe be-
tide the working mother
caught downtown in an emer-
gency with her children left
alone.
Live-in maids. scarce as
they are, receive an average
of $50 a week and up IN adj
dition to room and board.
The one-day worker is get
ting S1-an-hour wage plus
carfare and lunch, a far cry
from the domestic wage in
Washington during the war
years.
Local homemakers who re-
member the going wages in
those days groan at today's
set minimum wage for DOM
estes.

Offer Geauga Farmers $14.5O Annual Rental
Per Acre for Establishing Wild Life Reserve

Since there will be no Acre
age Reserve Program for 1859,
tn Conservation Reserve Pro
gram will be opened this fall.
The first step in the sign-up
for 1859 Conservation Reserve is
for the farmer who is interested
in the program to go to the Gea-
uga County ASC office in Burton
and request that annual rental
payment rates be established for
his farm. These requests must
be made before Oct. 10. At the
time the farmer makes his re
quest for a payment rate he
must furnish the committee with
information on acreage a n d
yields of crops for his farm and
give an estimate of the value of
his land, which should not be
the market value but what he
thinks the land is worth for ag-
ricultural purposes.
Under the Conservation Re-
serve Program farmers retire
land from general crops for up
to 10 years and devote the re-
served acreage to land, water or
wildlife conservation practices.
The government will make an
nual rental payments for the
land and will also share in the
cost of establishing the conser-
vation practices.
The average rental payments
rate for Conservation Reserve
land in Geauga County in the
1859 program is $14.50 persacre
per year. Maximum payments
will be higher for the most pro-
ductive farms and lower for less
productive farms.
The County Committee will
set two sets of maximum annu-
Geauga record. [volume] (Chardon, Geauga County, Ohio) 1952-1962, 1958-09-11

al rates for each farm where the
farmer has made a request for
a payment rate, One will apply
if only part of the eligible acre
age on the farm is placed in the
reserve. The other will be 10 per
cent higher and will be available
if all the eligible land on.a farm
is put in the Reserve for at least
five years.
Eligible land includes: Cd
Any land from, which a crop was
harvested or which was in reg
ular Crop rotation in 1858, and
CD land from which tame hay
was harvested for hay or silage
in either 1857 or 1858. Tame hay
is defined as a Stand of peren-
NAL grasses or legumes normal
ly established for hay by land
preparation and seeding"
Non eligible land includes:
Cd That planted to small fruits,
vineyards, nursery stock, or
chard or nut trees, and land be-
tween rows of these crops; CD
any land owned by the Federal
Government or a corporation
wholly owned by the Federal
Government; and 60 land in
noncrop open pasture, range,
woods, or in the farmstead.
The smallest amount of land
that can be put in the Conserva-
tion Reserve is acres. If the
entire acreage to be put in the
program is to be planted to for
est trees as little as two may
be planted.
After the maximum rates
have been established the farm
er will have until Oct. "a in
which to decide on participation,
designate land for the Reserve.
