Farmers Now Wonder What Postwar Means With each sunset marking one less day until Ohio crops must be snatch ed from the frost, Buckeye farm op erators continue their struggle to get their work done with too few workmen and too little machinery, and Guy Dowdy, emergency farm la bor supervisor, Ohio State Univer sity, says farmers are not happy a bout the present situation. One county reports a return to threshing wheat out of stacks be cause combines were not available to thresh the wheat in the field. Stack ing wheat adds a lot of man days to the job of producing the crop, be cause each bundle of wheat must be handled at least three times before it goes through a separator. Another county complains that transporting emergency help has be come a problem because farm trucks are getting so near the point of final breakdown that any extra miles may mean one less truck. The emergency workers must be picked up at as sembly points in towns or at camps and then returned at night. The news on inexperienced work ers does not add any gaiety to the farmers’ evenings. Youngsters do ex cellent work in many places but they require supervision and that means loss of time by the farmer himself. More boys of late high school age are working on farms because jobs in towns now’ are not quite so numer ous as in recent years. Trouble spots are expected in areas producing tomatoes for canning, in sections where considerable fruit re quires picking, and in places where potatoes are grown. All of those must be harvested within compari tively short periods, and a lot of the harvesting is hand work.
