S
Iowa's corn harvest Is nicely
started, accoralng to the early reports
The rains of a few days ago interfer
ed some with the work in the fields
and iii making the ground too soft fdf
comfort but the last several days have
been ideal corn picking weather and
the Wipello county farmers have been
miking the most of the opportunity.
The delay occassioned by the rains
has already been more than made up,
The greatest trouble'with the farm
ers Js the' scarcity of cornhuskers and
complaints come in on all sides that
cdrti pickers-In. large enough numbers
are not to be had. The farm help prob
lem is always a puzzler and In corn
husking time when .the mornings are
frosty, ajjd the stalks wet, makes the
work uncomfortable, it is more so.
Pay js High.
Vi ''led to the scarcity of farm-help
^h?n is the added prices the corn
/Jtuskprsare asking. Formerly 3 cents
^af considered good wages but in
-'.on sections of the state huskers are
6r
ending 5 cents a bushel, which the
%ag iers declare is exhorbitant, especl-
1
T.be1
JBJ in view of the condition of some of
corn this year. It is apparent that
there is considerable sort corn and
the work of husking is handicapped by
that fact, since the ears must be sort
ed more carefully than ordinarily.
Farmer boys, you have a chance to
get a nice suit of clothes or $10.00
cash or $5.00 pair of shoes for 10
earS of corn. Go tnrough the fields
and see what you can find. The Hub.
