EdiTok: Among tho mnuy tilings that tends to operate against tho sue* ' cess of tho fanner during the crop KOtt -en i- the increasing unreliability of labor. The fanner begin.-, the yoilr, IIS he thinks, with his hired labor pro pOI'ly contracted for and reliable, and under this impression he plans for the crop, see-that his tools are in order.ar ranges for bis necessary supplies, if be lias not already enough provided, buys Iiis guano, or prepares bis "home-made composts, ? in fact arranges everything for business All is bright and hope ful and ho looks forward to a prosper ous yoar, counts tho probable yield of his Held and after deducting all ex pi Uses he hopes his profits will be Mll ilelont to get hlmsoll and family com fortable clothing and other iiccosstirlos of life, besides enabling him to gel lit tle John or Mary ott to Collogo or to the village High School. Alas! for his droams. About the time tho crop needs ;tl I at tent ion and prompt help on tin part of his hired labor,?-when a da,\ lost counts heavily against him. the "protracted meotings," odd fellow I'a r ados," business at town." etc.. to to say nothing ol "Urothor J ones' sick ness or "SisterSmiths' funeral." will take away his hired labor for one or more days in almost every week-. It makes no dlfToroiico how much he may roioonslrato with his hands fyj? losing so much lime, and that tln-.v should faithfully give hones! work under their contracts, they are going, and it you talk of enforcing your contract, they will tell you very plainly they will quit your employment for they know the penalty of their contracts amounts to no punishment at all.IJosldos, Mr. "A." "U." or "('." stands ready to pay their IhlO and take your bands to work h>r him until line Is paid back? How i this to be remedied;. It is true we have already a law for violations ol con tracts,? both for the employee und the persons who may entice him away, but the penalty in the first ease is mi mild, and the homestead protects against damages In tho other, thai it Is entirely inoperative and doe- not deter or meet tho requirements of the caso. Wo should have a law comutcnsuruto with tho damages committed. Ii the con trad is for six months or a year the penalty .should In-at hard labor on the public roads for the time contracted lor. It is true this will not hem-lit the fanner, so far as getting his crop ! worked at the proper time, but he will ho benefited indirectly by getting the j public roads better worked, so he can travel ovot* them without so much loss i to himself in wear and tear of animals I and wagons. The evil of violation of contract is an increasing one. and will continue lo increase in proproliou lo the scarcity of labor, unless remedied l>y a more strict punishment. Now, as everything almost depends upon t ho success of t he farm, might not the fanner have better protection against the violation of his contract? Now is the time to consider this ques tion. Let it be brought before t he can didates for tho Legislature and debated during tho coming campaign. What say you.
