" - Farm Labor Situation Luster The farm labor situation in the en tire country is decidedly easier than it has bepn in the past tlnee years. Nebraska has a plentiful :u pply, a pre-war prices or slightly above, o 25 to GO per cent lower than a yen at r per cent lower than a yenr ago, according to the State College of Agriculture. Many farmers, how ever, are not hiring any more men ijinn they have been in the last few years. Some say they have become nccustomed to getting along with little or no help while others say they are financially unable to hire. Likewise, the low prices of farm products make many feel unwilling to risk nny large outlay for labor.

Spater, Siouc City ... .23 College Aiialj.cs Farm Incomes un the theory that farming may be approaching pre-war condititions, the State College of Agriculture has recently published an ' analysis of a study of the incomes on fifty-eight Gage county farms in 1914. Six of the fifty-eight fnrms lost money in 1914: 15 made $1,00 or less; 18 rnnned between SI. 000 and S2.00U; 1 while only two made more than sj.uuu. ine analysis snows that men who hnd a low income made a less efficient use of man nnd horse labor. An increase in the number of acres farmed per man and per horse meant i ... more prollt. The management of livestock is strikingly brought out. On the tlnee highest classes of farms the livestock invenotries nre between $2,200 and $2,300, but the sales of livestock rise from $772 to $2,004, an increase of 1G9 per cent. On these same farms the sales of crops rise from $2,179 to $3,500, an increase of !0 per cent. The size of the farm was not a de ciding fnctor, but efficiency in crop nnd livestock production told the story. The purpose of tho study is to urge upon farmers the necessity of keeping books nnd making a care ful analysis of their business. No business man In town would think of hnving tho nmount of money Invested which the average farmer has with out keeping a careful set of books and from time to time checking up his business to discover the leaks and tho unprofitable lines.
