Idaho ratifies a wage schedule for agricultural labor noting a daily rate of 3.00 for ten hours with board and 4& per hour overtime, plus a monthly wage of 760.00. The plan, labeled as fair and reasonable, seeks full publication in all papers to inform readers and deter wage refusals tied to draft fears.
A notice discusses wage scales for agricultural laborers with board, offering 80 dollars monthly for board and lodging, 75 dollars for expert irrigators. It urges employers to follow the scale to prevent underbidding and protect workers’ wages. Also seeks seed contracts from farmers for multiple acreages in musk melon, watermelon, pumpkin, squash, gourds, and sweet corn, with stated prices.
