BULLETIN, -HOLLAND-ST. LOUIS SUGAR CO. TO PROSPECTIVEBEET GROWERS DECATUR PLAN?
BULLETIN TO DECATUR BEET GROWERS. The employment ot foreign contract laborers to do the hand work on the . beets has done much to help the farm- ■ ers get started in the sugar beet bus- i mess; but if not managed carefully and intelligently it is liable to be the j source ot much unpleasantness and expense. We employ mostly Bohemians, who i as a rule are honest, law-abiding and ’ int'-lligent. Many of them sy.ak eith-■ , ■ ■ - cr English, ami have had experience in beet work. As is true , among all people there are some who are not what they should be, and with such we have mere or less trouble, although we seldom find one who is lawless. We also get some who have | not had experience in the work. In order to get along with the least trouble and get the best work done by them we must have the assistance and co-creration oi you farmers in managing the ones on your farm. As you -. r. readily see w e cannot afford to have a superintendent on each farm, but the owner of the farm is there at all times. Although most of you farmers nave had no experience in beet raising, a general knowledge of good agriculture and common sense 1 will soon teach you what is necessary, and you can- know whether the for- [ ! eigners are doing the work right or < not If they are not doing good work 1 you should correct them in a kindly > way, and if they fail to comply with t your request, insist upon having your 1 orders obeyed. 1 Reasonaole patience and kindliness I will win tnem to your way nearly cv- i cry time. Gaining their good will at 1 1 the first will do more to get efficient - service from them than any other t way When they first come, be there c to meet them and take then to the • I houses they are to occupy and help th®m to get started. See that they j t ai€ provided with something to eat,|g such as milk. eggs, bu'ter, potatoes.it etc. Also fuel with which to cook the i firs' meal. You will soon owe them j f for their work and most of them will | L have the money ready to pay you im-. v mediately for what they get. Above if

(all, when they start tc thinning the lieets see that you have done your j part and the beets are well cultivated, Just now we ask all these who want this contract, labor to arrange at once —with their neighbors who are ’to employ the same people—for the I house the beet workers are to occupy. Also see Mr. Wagner or Mr. Thomas, of the sugar company, that they may (make the proper plans and contract I with the laborers. Don’t put it off, for we are going ; to Chicago very soon to engage them. We wish the farmers to understand i that we do not advise any farmer to 'employ the foreign laborer, if they have the help to do their own work in their own families, or can secure it locally. Any boy twelve years old, who has ginger in him, can learn in lan hour how to thin properly; and in I two or three days he can do it just as well, and equally as fast as the foreigners. Then you will keep the money in your own family. Contract with your boy or girl to do the work on two or three acres, and give him the S2O per acre, and if he has the right make-up he will take more interest in it and get some eas-ily-earned money. Any boy fourteen ’o sixteen, years old, can make from $1.50 to $2.50 per day at it. If you are putting in ten acres of beets it. is a pity to pay that S2OO to outsiders when your own boys and girls could just as well earn it as not. It is good healthy work, not in the least degrading. In Michigan the boys and girls of many of our business men in the towns go out on the farms and thin beets as soon as school lets out. You will not find many idle boys during the summer in St. Louis. Alma, or any of the sugar factory towns, and they do no< have to as,; dad for spending money for the Fourth of July. Don't be afraid, farmers, to chance taking care of your own beets, but give the boys a chance at it, and at the same time save the boys. "Satan finds some mischief, still, for idle hands to do,” but there will be no occasion for idle boys' hands when you get into the beet business properly. F. H. HUBBARD.
