The federal minimum hourly wage of $1 for farm hands has forced operators to eliminate inefficient workers, and the south is beginning to feel the effects of its year's advancing into that region.
Even in the Southeast, Southern Plains and lower California, where labor has long been available, the crunch is being felt.
WASHINGTON—Farm labor is becoming increasingly hard to be, but hired hands are doing a greater percentage of farm work.
SO THE PINCERS' effect of minimum wages' cutting in government and industry's attracting the top has reduced the pool of unable workers.
Farm owners are competing more with industry now for the better workers, expecting to get bigger shares of the pie. This change is reflected in the Agriculture Department's latest statistical information, which indicates that tower hands are smaller, but are getting more money

These changes have meant
more efficient operations as farms with annual sales between $20,000 and $40,000. It also means many farms with sales as low as they have hired abler while large member businesses take high paying nonfarm jobs.
THE EFFICIENCY has increased gross sales, but expenses have increased labor costs. Even with the often reduced cost of incomes most of the other operations are financially ahead because of their outside em-
The final picture, then, is reduced income from the farm, but increased income for the family.
This arrangement is applied to a farm owned, middle-sized farms. But there is a real labor squeeze because many farmers with annual sales exceeding
These farms have long been mechanized, so that a change from hand labor to machinery is not possible.
