The work will be steady and the work in the harvest field and pitching to a thrashing machine' is not boy's play. CTThe men who come in here seeking work will be treated right for they will find employment among the farmers who themselves work every eay and know what it is. But there isn't room in here when the harvest begins, for. the loafer or gambler, who follows the harvest hand to get what he earns, by hook or crook. The most of the men who come dressed for work will realy be honest about it and they will be found in the fields.

The men who loaf about town and will not work will find the officers after them and they will be forced to move on. The binders will start. here about the middle of next week and the harvest hands that are actual workers will be welcomed but the hangers-on, will not find a worm welcome in this community.
