Washington, Feb. 17 —Labor is the ' great problem on the farm at the • present time. War conditions and ab-' I normal wages in the various lines of industry have demoralized farm help ;to such an extent that it is exceedingI ly difficult to get assistance requisite! i to carry on operations. | In this state of chaos;, the Federal ‘ Board for Vocational Education has | hit upon what seems to be a solution, and has created a brand new prosesI sion—that of “farm mechanic,” and it i, figured that any farm of more than 100 cultivated acres can very well afford to have a man of this sort. The men being qualified for this work arc disabled soldiers who before injury wore farm boys. With this background of agricultural knowledge these men are being taught to PIkRF. to a rauee/ Uw> vrili cure mom ail wn Xalp troubles. Ecr-n-.a, Barhe.T itch, Itch.
