Vancouver Saskatoon 60 Hamilton Edmonton i THRESHING IN ONTARIO Gangs Available This Year to Relieve Situation. A Proposed Plan of Organization - How to Overconra the Difficulties -Applications to Be Filed at Once. (Contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture, Toronto.) THE threshing gang is not an untried experiment in Ontario. In certain coun- ties, Lafnbton for instance, these gangs have been employed and have proven very successful. Neither the threshermen nor the farmer in these cases care to return to the old methods of changing help with neigh- bors where men for the threshing gangs can be secured, The Ontario Department of Agriculture and the Ontario Trades and Labor Branch aro now co-operating to make ar- rangements to• ensure an ample s.iP- ply of labor for as many threshing gangs as are likely to be organized this fall, and suggest herein methods of organizing a gang and a plan of organization. The Difficulties -Overcome Them. (1.) In the early part of harvest when many moves must be made and when comparatively small amounts of grain are threshed, the thresher urin finds it difficult, often, to make a profit even' under present methods. 1f he employs a gang his expenses will be ..such heavier. His charges therefore must be high enough so that later in the season he may re- gain what is Lost at this time. ' (2.) But at any time during the threshing season there may be con- siderable idleness during the fre- quent changes from farm to farm caused by the camparatively small amount of grain to be threshed ' on the average farm. By- good organiz ation this lost time may be limited to the minimum, however, by having the'majority of the changes made: at. night. Thresher Board Men. (3.) If, the farmer were obliged to board the gang a certain element of unfairness could not be avoided. It would seem, therefore,.:that the thresher should be responsible for. this. The most convenient way in Ontario, perhaps, would be for the thresher to make : arrangements with each farmer to provide meals for the men,: the thresher to pay for'' the same. (4,). It would seem necessary for each thresher to provide a sleeping van for his gang and the men to pro- vide blankets, as is done in the North= west. These vans are home-made and one can bo constructed for the average Ontario gang for about $100. if the thresher does his own building. Nothing ornate is required: A struc- ture 10 feet wide by 12 feet long, built on trucks, wind -proof and rain- proof and with two tiers of bunks on each side would afford ample sleeping accommodation for an On - .Leo gang. (5.) As several men constitute a gang the weekly wage sheet would run fairly high.' This would involve a considerable regular expenditure :'n the part of the thresher, which in. .urn would necessitate prompt pay- ment by farmers. Where gangs are .:e,iployed it is necessary for farmers ,, give cash of 3 u-aa.y notes imme- sheen the job is done. (tie !'robatiy the -ost important factor of err .o 4.aIJ .a.es wnich the ,.Wrestler will cul s.iese must, of .urge, be much ..io..ei" than those „uarged i.,rsierly. This would make ..e threshing bill.a fairly large sum. et the farmer ccu.d still make a ,,,.otit by the transac.lon. If, by em- pto)ing a gang, he were enabled in the two .weeks thus saved to prepare an additional 10 acres, say for wheat, he would have from 250 to 350 extra bushels of this crop to sell in 1919. Size of the Gangs. (7.) The last problem is that of securing men, The average gang would probably consist of eight men as follows: Engineer, blower man, feeder, grainman and four mow or stackmen. This would leave the farmer to take care of his straw and to supply another man to carry grain if one were not ..sufficient. A team of his horses would also be required to draw water. He would supply fuel, of course, as is now done. In organizing a gang of this na- ture possibly not more than two or three could be secured inthe local- ity where it was desired to operate. The Ontario Trades and Labor Branch will undertake to supply as many men as can be secured for this purpose. It is thought there will be no insuperable difficulty in securing sufficient men for this purpose at rea, sonable wages during the threshing months. Where the silos are to be filled the same gangs, or as many men as are required, may be utilized for this purpose, µ, Organize a Gang In Your District. It . is suggested that : farmers' clubs,' other farmers' organizations, or groups of -farmers without definite organization, consider at once the advisability of employing a threshing gang this fall. Dail the local thresher to the meeting and confer with him regarding ways and means. Then, having, reached a definite agreement, wrte.Dr. W. A. Riddell, Superinten- dent Ontario Trades and Labor Branch, 15 Queen's Park, Toronto. Inversely any thresher who wishes to organize a gang Should write Dr, Riddell also, In every case it will be necessary for a thorough understand, ing to exist between the thresher and his patrons. When such is the case everything possible will be done tc supply sufficient men for all thresh. ing gangs required this year in Ontario, Apply to Dr. W. A. Riddell not later than July 10th -Juane Miller, Assistant Commissioher 01 Agriculture.
