FARMERS AND THE DRAFT." Farmers In various parts of the) North are complaining that the draft taken so many of the farm laborers that they find it Impossible to get help and will be unable to do for the country what they otherwise would in the way of raising crops and stock. There Is a provision in the conscription law for exempting farm laborers where their help is necessary but little advantage from it accrued to the North.

It was inserted by the southern members of Congress for the purpose of keeping the Negroes in the cotton fields and It has been used for that purpose. Only a small number of southern Negroes have been conscripted. For one thing southern members didn't want to give them a chance to fight, and then they wanted to retain them on the plantations. But in' the North the exemption boards exempted very few laborers on the ground that' their labor was necessary to the operation of industries, and the farmers have suffered accordingly. To our notion this was a serious blunder.

Upon the farms, especially, laborers should have" been exempted until their services are necessary in the prosecution of the war. There are many thousands of persons of draft age about the cities who could be easily spared. There are loafers who are doing little or nothing and whom it would be a blessing to get rid of, and there are young and able-bodied men whose places could be filled by women. If necessary. And there are a great many 'beyond the age of 31 but within the ages generally recognized as the military age, who could be spared.

In preparing for this war the most effective preparation possible should bo made, and part of that preparation should be to see to it that the industries necessary for the prosecution of the war should be left fully equipped.
