Warning Is Issued !
Regarding Minors
Working On Farms
Illegal to Help Harvest
Crops While School
Is In Session
Minors under 16 years of age may
not legally be employed in harvesting
cotton, peanuts or other agricultural
crops while school is in session, State
Labor Commissioner Forrest H. Shu
ford says
Citing the child labor requirements
of the Federal Wage and Hour Law,
Shuford said that such employment
of minors on farms where the crops
are shipped out of the State is legal
only during the hours when school is
not in session or if the child is em
ployed by his parent or guardian.
“There is no restriction on the em
ployment of children in agriculture,
regardless of their ages, before or
after school hours or on holidays,”
Commissioner Shuford stated. “The
controlling factor for employment of
minors under 16 is whether the
schools are in session in the district
where the child lives while employed.
Even if an under-age minor having
good grades is excused from attend
ing school, it would nevertheless not
make his employment legal during
school hours.”
The Labor Commissioner pointed
out that the law sets no limit as to :
wages to be paid or number of hours

that may be worked by agricultural i
■ child labor, providing the work is done
outside school hours.
Responsibility for compliance with
the child labor provisions of the Fed-'
eral Wage and Hour Law rests with
, the farmer, he said, regardless of who
does the actual hiring of the children.
He explained that prospective employ
ers of children of doubtful age can
; protect themselves from unintention
al violation of the law by having on
file proof of age of each employed
minor. Age certificates may be ob
tained by the prospective employee
from the local Public Welfare Super
intendent, he said.

, When we asked a veteran angler
. What he thought of the new fluores
i cent lures, he replied that they were
| better than plain ones —sometimes.
. Other times they weren’t as good as
■ regular ones.
This, of course, is what experienced
fishermen had expected. But seme of
us were more gullible. There were
great expectations based on the fal
lacious idea that the more visible a
■ lure, the more irresistible to fish. But
veterans know this isn’t so. Some
times bright gaudy ones are best;
1 sometimes the dull inconspicuous ones
pioduce fish.
It was suggested that fluorescent
lures might reflect certain rays visible
to fish hut not to man. However,
some farily recent experiments by
English biologists seem to prove that
fish see the same wave lengths we
do. These biologists say that fish see

make fluorescent lures seem natural
to fish? However, we know that most
fish at all times, and the most choosy
at most times, don’t seem to give a
dam what they swallow. All a fish
usually asks is that the thing be of
suitable size and seem alive.
Should one use fluorescents ? So
far as our two chief species of game
fish—bass and trout —are concerned,
it seems highly unlikely that we’ll
ever find a lure that will be effective
at all times. Both of these fish are
extremely changeable in their notions
of what they want, far more so than
any other game fish. Even the musky,
most temperamental of the lot, is un
predictable only as to when he’ll
strike, not as to what he’ll' strike.
What does all this add up to? To
precisely what most of us had ex
pected right from the start: You
should by all means have some fluor
escent flies or plugs along to try
when the light is dull. But it would
be foolish to rely on them at all times.
