Phenomenal Growth Makes it Hard to Conceive Such Pro- spects--Farm Help Problem. Montreal, Aug. 7.--From all points in western providees unanimity of opinion points to the anticipatory re- of this year's harvest as being the cst in the history of the west. In ates, such as Southern Alberta, the phenomenal Frowth makes it hard for the people to conceive such pros- pects. The grain harvest will be general in about two weeks. To gather this an; ticipated harvest reports have been circulated to the effect that some 30, 000 extra men will be required. From governmental sources of . information the department of the interior learns that such a report is very much exag: erated. With the exception of two places reports from all the provinces state that the supply of farm help at the present time equals the demand; but that during the grain harvest more men will be required. From Sas katchewan and Alberta this is explain: ed by the increased incoming of mew settlers, who this year will have no crops to handle, and will consequent- ly be available to help the older set. ters. Av some tions exist these condi- the points where it is even Stated that sarplus help will have to look else: where to find emplogment, which shows that the usual number who go annually from the older provinces to the west to help in the harvest, will be sufficient, : Wages remain firm at from $15 to $40 a month and board, the rate paid being regulated accord- ing to the experience of the men em- ployed.
