PROFIT SHARING IlMPS
KEEP LABOR ON FM
Farmers who employ labor "dn a
proft-sharing basis have nlot suffered
from a shortage of labor, according
to J. Frank Harbert, farm help sp.
tialist for Louisiana. in the employ
f, th* United States Department of
Agriculture cooperatlng a ith the Ex
tension Dilviion, Louisiana State Un-,
versi'y. The plan of profit-sharlnlg
will solve the farm labor problem,
says Mr. Harbert. Give the tenant
an opportunity to raise hogs, chick.
ens, etc.. of his own and he will take
a real interest i*. his work 1r4d in thi
farm Then when' he is offered fve
or six dollars a day for outside work
he will refuse with the yleas that he
has interests of his own to look at
ter.
The common method of profit-shar.
hits in the South is for the landlord
to furnish land, teams, farming Im
plements and house for the tenant
while the tenant furnishes the labor.
The tenant then gets one-half of the
trops produced.
Mr. Harbert advocates firmness,
kildness and sympathy In deailn
