The contract for 1949, the speaker said, is almost a dupli cate of that of '48, with a few minor changes. These he read and compared. Charles Mann, assistant man ager of the Hillings plant, spoke concerning labor. The employ ment situation has changed in the past year; where labor was difficult to interest and hol'd it is now interested in a sure job; employment opportunities are not now as great. Because stoop labor is one of the first classes to feel the effects of replace ments from next higher levels, there is a greater abundance and stronger desire to stay placed. The company's recruiting rep pesentatives report findings in the south where they operate that confirm these views, he told the farmers. He was of the opinion there would be an ample supply of labor. The company intends to bring in the workers a few weeks earlier than usual this year and recomirfend that beet growers prepare housing ac cordingly. The program concluded with the showing of motion pictures in color that were made last fall a T ... , . , . .. , Lovell, Wyo., factory who visited several countries in Europe to study the sugar beet industry. The Laurel farmers were much interested in observing methods and equipment. Nearly all the scenes showed the use of me chanical means for harvesting as well as planting and cultivating. Countries visited in the study in cluded the British Isles, Belgium, Holland, France, Germany and Sweden. Many of the shots of historic places were beautiful. Belgium, one of the first Eu ropean countries to start recov ery, appeared to lead the others. Germany, still handicapped in man y respects, was making fair progress, particularly along scien tific avenues. France followed. b . ut to a lesser degree in inven tion and development of ma chines.

The English farmers seemed to be particular ly interested in mechanization of the beet industry, for which they have produced several machines that seem to be of varying ef fectiveness. Particularly inter esting was a machine that re moved dirt from topped and pull ed beets. The Irish, though, con tinue to use hand labor almost exclusively. Refreshments were served be fore' the meeting adjourned. Among those attending in ad dition to Kimmons and Mann were Roy Roseberry, Laurel field and Dick Riddell, Charles in an Johnson and Ralph Millice, field men in the other growing areas of the Billings factory district.

The skills of the blind are many, but their activities in sports cause never-ending wonder among seeing people. Their base ball consists of a ring on a wire, requiring skill in hitting with a regular bat. The pitcher serves the batter by striking the ring with a rod. It is up to the batter to deliver his drive at the precisely right split second foi a one, two or three bagger or home run. Unless he uses a level stroke he may strike out. The distance the ring travels on the /wire determines whether he runs and how far, or retires. The running is guided by an other wire, with the first base to the left instead of to the r *Ç bt; ' • , . .
