PEA PICKERS
The impression in a great many people’s
minds is that pea picking represents a great
amount o f labor for a small return and it is not
hard to find many pickers complaining over the
dollar, or two dollars they received for picking
peas. By searching closely you can find pickers
who actually hit the ball from starting time to
closing time, and you get a different story.
We would, like to site the story of Willard
Jones of Sennca, Kansas. Mr. Jones was in the
drouth region last year and in his garden were
cracks in the ground big enough to stick a hoe in.
The farmers there raised hardly a thing. This
year he came West; and he and his four children
ranging in age from ten to fifteen years. Three
weeks ago he landed work in a pea field, the
first time he had ever tried picking peas outside
of picking a bushel or so out o f his garden in
Kansas when nature was kinder to that state.
Since coming to this section three weeks ago
he and his four children have not only lived well
but he has banked over $100 toward a rainy day.
Last week the check for the weeks work for
himself and four small children was $62.00.
Now Mr. Jones and his family don’t soldier on
the job, nor do they work a few hours and then
spend the balance of the time “ resting.” After
the first week the field boss never bothered his
little bunch because he knew they were picking
peas; leaving the “ flats” and vines out of the
hamper. The case of Mr. Jones is not phenom-
inal. There is one case of a family of seven work
ing for Mr. Harris of Fruitland who have aver
aged $99 a week for the past two weeks; and
they too are out in the field to pick peas.
Field bosses will tell you they have some pick
ers in their crew who regularly make their 20
hampers a day, which at 25 cents a hamper is $5
a day. It isn’t everyone who can pick 20 hampers
a day, but its the people who get in and work so
hard they don’t have time to do any kicking that
are making good in the pea harvest and these
people will make good any where.
ANOTHER EXPERIMENT TRIED
The government's latest social experiment;
that of transporting 2000 persons from Mich
igan, Wisconsin anti Minnesota to Alaska seems
doomed to failure, if stores in the daily press are
any indication. The new settlers are bombarding
their senators and congressmen; tthe latter pass
the buck to the administration which has started
an investigation.
The whole scheme could hardly be a success
under conditions of today. In the first place
there are very few people left who are willing to
forgo the pleasures o f life to carve out a new
country. They don’t grow the kind of people any
more who made the state of Oregon the great
state it is today. You don’t find people willing to
leave home, friends, comforts to journey forth
into a new and dangerous land and pioneer in
the the truest sense of the word. The early pio-
ners who settled the western country came on
their own free will, asked no help from the gov
ernment and expected none. It is quite another
thing when the government transports settlers to
a new country, promises them certain things
which are impossible o f fulfillment. The settlers
have a right to complain, and from the poor
start, it is doubtful if the scheme will ever suc
ceed.
How much better it would have been to bring
these families to the west and settle them on
good government land here.If the adminisration
was determined to try this type of experiment;
the government could acquire suitable land in
practically any of the western states, where con
ditions would have been ideal for the establish-
mnt of such an exneriment.
EDITORIAL COMMENTS BY CLARK WOOD
We are looking for G. 0 . P. cynics to say that
the NRA skeleton belongs in the Adminstration
closet.
One is in doubt as to whether Japan finds the
greater satisfaction in crossing the Chinese wall
or in double-crossing the Chinese.
