While scores of idle men are picked up weekly by the local police, hundreds of Iowa farmers are scouring the country for men to assist in cribbing the corn crop. A farmer residing near Waterloo appeared at police headquarters today seeking men to assist him.

There are a number of prisoners In the city jail, a majority of whom have been employed on the Chicago Great Western, but who are apparently not looking for work, as there are plenty of opportunities. The agriculturist stated lie had about sixty acres of corn in the field but had been unable to secure any help. He has had some experience with police characters in the past and stated he was somewhat reluctant to accept the services of prisoners but it was au. absolute case of necessity. He was evidently not impressed by the appearance of the prisoners this morning as he stated that it would probably be a difficult matter to clean up the rooms after, these men had completed their work.

He informed Judge Meyers that if he failed to secure any other men he would return this evening and offer employment to some of the prisoners. Giving Trouble. The force of men employed by the Chicago Great Western north of this city has given the local police department more trouble than all the local characters. Hardly a day has passed that at least one of the men from the railroad camp has not appeared In court and during the past week, several have been taken into custody two or three times. They all maintain they are waiting for their money, but evidently they have some funds left as they manage to keep intoxicated most of the time.
