Register. j IIAUVKHT 18 GltKAT. t Farntors) AraIu 1'unfnwtrd Willi the Problem of Getting Xottled Help, Craln-cuttlng time U near at hand lu the wheat-producing sections of the interior and the farmers are again confronted with the alwuys se rious problem of securing the needed help for the harvesting of the crop. The cutting of fall-sown grain In the three Northwestern states usually begins early In July and It la not until the latter part of August that the crop of spring and fall grain Is gathered, but this year the stfaaon is a little late. While It Is generally conceded that the wheat yield of the Northwest this year will be slightly, at least, under that of 1907, the task of gath ering tbe crop will be no small one, and for this purpose a small army of men will be needed In the wheat fields during the two harvest months. With mills and factories more or less generally suspended as a result of the late financial depres sion, logging camps and sawmills closed down for tbe time and rail road construction work curtailed, It was believed that there would be no difficulty In securing tbe help need ed by the farmers: but reports have already reached the city from some of the principal wheat districts that help Is scarce. Offers of wages trom $2.50 to $5 a day, with board and lodging provided, have not yet drawn the forces that will be needed through the harvest season. ' It Is said that there are now on the coast thousands of Idle men, who were thrown out of employment by the closing of the mills and other In dustries some time ago, and other thousands are without employment In many of the mining districts of the interior. Many of these will of course take to the harvest fields, but It Is the experience of farmers that sawmill men and others who have been engaged In the lumber Industry do not usually take kindly to harvest field wor, and not many of tuem are drawn Into it. The use of combined harvesting and threshing machines has (n a large way disposed or the labor problem In many districts, but even with these machines thousands of men are need ed, and tn many places the creater part of the grain Is yet cut with bind ers. In districts where men are build ing homes on government land there will be no serious labor shortage. In other parts the farmers will have to get help as best they can. It will be of Interest to farmers this year to know that grain bags wilt In all probability cost materially less than a year ago. In Portland standard Calcutta bags are now quot ed at 6 94 to 7 cents apiece, as against in average price of 8 cents last year. Trls means a reduction of $10 to $15 a thousand from the cost of bags a year ago. Bags of domestic manufacture, which comprise but small part of the quantity used every year, are held at about the same fig ures as the Imported article. The bag supply for the season Is already largely contracted for, aud In some of the wheat districts It Is reported that the farmers, with a view to getting bags at low prices, some time ago made contracts for supplies at prices const lerably higher than those now prevailing. Local dealers say there Is small probabil ity of any advance this season in bag prices over present quotations. The wheat yield of the Inland Em pire this year is yet a matter of spec ulation, and estimates on the prob able output vary widely Some of the local grain men hold that the crop will be 25 to 30 per cent under that of last year' Some estimates the output at 50,000.000 to 65,000, 000 buchels. It will be. Impossible until the harvest Is well tinder way to make anything like an accurate guess on the size of the crop. Tele gram. LAXO-KRAl'll TRIALS.
