Estimate 2,000 Workers
k Needed in Panhandle
| for Potato Harvest
Potatoes, one of the major
crops of western Nebraska, goes
into harvest about September 20,
and several thousand outside
workers are going to be needed
to get the crop out of the ground.
L. F. Snipes, Nebraska exten
tion farm supervisor at the Uni
versity of Nebraska College of
Agriculture, told County Agent
A. Neill Dawes this week that
there would be opportunities for
a number of Holt county farmers
and workers to earn from $8 to
$12 a day harvesting potatoes in
Scotts Bluff, Cheyenne, Kimball,
Box Butte, Banner and Morrill
county potato growing areas.
Snipes said that potato grow
ers are being asked to make ar
rangements for sleeping quarters
and eating facilities for those
working in the harvest.
More than 2,000 outside work
ers will be needed in the six pan
handle counties, according to the
latest estimates The employment
will be of approximately three
weeks duration, and some of the
workers may be absorbed by
best harvest immediately follow
ing the conclusion of potato gath
ering.
Snipes cautioned workers
against going to the panhandle
area without clearance from the
office of their county agricul
tural agents, because the exten
tion office will be a service point
at which inquiries may be made
and orders will be issued sending
laborers to specific jobs in the
six western counties.
Person desiring to work in the
potato harvest are asked to regi
ster with County Agent Dawes at
once. Persons who are register
ed at the county extention office
will be notified when orders

When yotft(talk with a new resident in Nebraska,
one thing he is almost certain to comment upon
is Nebraska1* low electric rates. For during the
years in whioh Nebraska’s own etate-wide electric
system has been operating, rate reductions have
been consistent made until today, Nebraska’s
electric rates on the average are the lowest of any
state in the middle west Electric users are actually
saving more than a million dollars each year
through lowerjrates. And Consumers has achieved
this favorable reputation for the state at no sacri
