Farm wage increase leads raise in cites
Washington, D. C. March 23. Wages of farm laborers have risen faster than city wages over 20 years. In the last year farmhands gained 2.5 percent, 11 percent in four years, and 36 percent since 1902. The Agriculture Department study notes farm wages rose in most countries and land values nearly doubled 1900-1910, with more proceeds going to capital than labor. Regional wage differences remain but are narrowing.
