W. E. StcComas. the newly selected!
farm a treat, sees two sources of se-i
coring farm labor, the first aad best
I source is gathering the old men of,
the city together who had previous
experience on the farm aad who are
patriotically inclined to do some work
on the farm as a means of providing
food for the hoys -over there." who
are representing them on the firing
line. These men could help greatlyeven
if they conld only do several days
work each week on the farm. Mr.
McCains* is considering is? aavwa-i
biiity of conducting * campaign to
register these men and have them assist
in the writ. Hi* second source
ot iafcor is to save the men in the 1
stores -work a cay or two on the farm 1
each week, every proprietor allow:!;:
so many men off from his store each;
v.'eok. 3I?. McComas -tates that this;
already is In effect in Bodge Centre.;
Dodge county. Minnesota, from which}
place he cane to Fairmont. i
Inasmuch as food is regarded as;
the most essential weapon in winning
the war it is certain that one if not
both of these plans will be resorted
to in saving the- situation. This would .
enable M irioa county to ba self sus- j
taining and not draw from other.
! counties and states food (or its main-!
tenance. The surplus food could then j
be used to feed our soldiers in France 1
. as well as the ally armies.
I The United States Service Bulletin'
I estimate that between 3.9OO.OOO0 and
j 4.009.000 workers will be needed in
' agriculture, shipbuilding, munitions
; making and other essentia! industries,
j and calculates that 1.000,000 men will
j be sufficient to harvest the bumper
i crop. One idea advanced is to import
1 West India negroes and use them as
' eortinn v?a?a? acd track "workmen on
I railroads during the winter and place!
| them In the com belt and wheat belt i
j during the summer time. Because the:
! rich virgin soils of Western Canada I
could produce more spring wheat than J
I could the United States it is probable |
' that many farm laborers of the great'
Xorthwest wi". be found there, xr a;
census taken in Xew York State the
idea that the labor shortage is a myth'
was exploded because it showed that
3.772 men enlisted, 11.427 were drafted
