Labor Shortage Facing Farmers in City Boom
Foreseeing a larger farm labor shortage in summer 1925, farmers plan responses as city business heats up. Steel and pig iron output rise to record levels, rail traffic soars, and urban wages exceed pre war norms, pressuring farms to compete for scarce labor. Diversification and larger equipment may help, as workers migrate to cities and farms adjust.
