The New Harvest Hand
What is a Mexican national? A Mexican national is
a citizen of Old Mexico who normally lives there. Right
now, however, many of them are being sent to the U-
nited States to assist with the harvest. They are
brought into this country through an agreement be-
tween the two Governments.
Present indications are that hundreds---yes, even
thousand---of these Mexicans may be used in the
North Dakota harvest fields. Some of them, already
here, are proving to be very satisfactory workers.
If you obtain some of these laborers, remember
these things: they are in a strange country, they may
not be acquainted with our methods and will require
patient instructors, they speak Spanish and somehow
you will have to be able to tell them what you want
done, they may not be familiar with our machinery
and therefore will probably be better for hand labor,
and their Government demands that they be properly
taken care of.
Experienced farm help would be better, on that
point no one will argue. However, in times like these,
Dakota farmers will have to harvest the crops with
whatever help they can get--and hope that it all comes
m~t all right.

Neighbors to Help Harvest
Under special arrangements, temporarily suspend-
ing certain border crossing formalities, Canadian
threshing outfits are now able to help harvest grain
crops in this country. American machines and crews
can also go into the Prairie Provinces to help them
with their anticipated bumper crop.
Canadian threshing outfits may remain in the U-
nited States until September 15, under this arrange-
ment. United States machines and crews may enter
Canada, when their services are required, but may not
remain longer than December 31st. This is just another
of the many plans developed to help get the food har-[
vested in this time of machinery and labor shortages.
Every little bit helps that much more in the food for
freedom battle.
Sub-Stations in Bloom
A w~rd of praise would not be out of order for the
the sub-stations of the North Dakota
stations. Their duties are many, the hours
and the responsibility great. It is the results of
their work, combined with the state stations, that give
farmers the latest information on crop varieties, feed-
ing practices, and other improved farming me(hods.
These sub-stations are located throughout the state
at Dickinson, Edgeley, Hettinger, Langdon, and Wfll-
iston,. The crops are now in "full bloom" at these Ioca-
of the sub-stations are holding field days.
Farmers 'first hand, up-to-the-minute infor-
mation on crop varieties and their behavior are always
welcome at these sub-stations, on field days or any
other time.

Teachers Hired
By SIafe Bureau
The transfer of $4,000 by the em-
ergency commission from the state
contingency fund to the state de-
partmen~ of public instruction has
made possible the continuation o~'
the teachers placement bureau at
118 Third St., Bismarck, which in
the future will operate as a part of
the state department of public in-
struction.
The petition for the transfer was
signed by Gov. John Moses and
Arthur E. Thompson, superinten,
dent of public instruction. The ac-
tion was urgent since the season
for the employment of teachers is
at its peak and will be a continued
rush until the latter part of Sep-
tember.
It is sta,tea that the greatest
shortage will exist in the groups
of teachers havin,g degrees and
those for the rural fields. The
credentials of some 4.000 teachers
are on file at the bureau and will
now be available to the state de-
partment. A. W. Larson, previously
employed by the federal govern-
ment, will continue his work as
director of the state teacher's em-
ployment bureau.
The teachers placement ,bureau
which originally was a part of the
state employment service was tak-
en over by the federal gov~-nment
for the duration of the war and six
months thereafter. However, it was
abandoned when congress cut the
appropriation for the bureau from
the employment service budget.
At a conference helc~ Saturday,
it was decided to include teachers
placemer~t work in the h~nds of
the department of public instruc-
tion.
The conferees included Gov. John
Moses, Thompson~ Paul Dalagex.
deputy superintendent of public in-
struction, Dor~ Larin, state war mart
power director, and Carl Fryhling,
U. S. educational service director.
TRUCK TIRES SCAR~g
"Due ,to the invasion which has
demanded the greatest portion of
our tire supply by our armed
forces, a drastic reduction in truck
tires for civilian use has been
brought about, mainly so in the
larger sizes. Further drastic re-
ductions can be anticipated for the
next sixty ,to ninety days, or longer.
Truck operators are all bound
to experience difficulties in secur-
ing tires. All operators are urged
by the Office of Defense Transpor-
tation to contact 'their AAA Com-
mittee or the Office of Defense
Transportation in Bismarck when
they have certificates for tires and
are umable to locate them, or have
been unable ,to secure certificates
due to the county quotas being ex-
hausted. This applies ot all op-
erators, especially those who have
trucks tied, up because of inability
to secure tireS."
