Harvest wages rise as Canada seeks extra farm workers
Early crop prospects spark demand for harvest labor with higher wages. Winnipeg Employment Service reports an average 60 workers daily at monthly rates around 25 dollars, with buying and stocking wages at 1.25 and 1.75 to 2 dollars per day. Harvest pay includes 50 cents to 1 dollar extra. A barbed wire wall around Palestine costs about 45 thousand dollars to deter escapes and smuggling across the Palestine Syria frontier.

Extracting Honey in July Cautions Beekeepers
The honeyflow in July is strong though damp weather may raise hive moisture. Do not extract early unless combs are at least three quarters ripe to avoid fermentation. Unripe honey should be disposed of promptly if stored insufficiently. Demand may rise as supplies are scarce, with about one third of the Dominion crop needed to replenish retail stocks.
