Beverly, Mass. — Owing to the high 

 <;ost of living, the gardeners along the 

 North Shore, who are paid by the 

 month, have asked for an increase of 

 $5. which would make the wage scale 

 $55 and ?G0 a month for gardeners em- 

 ployed on routine work. There is a 

 scarcity of labor on the shore, owing 

 to the fact that many Italians who 

 were employed on estates returned to 

 Italy to enter the war some months 

 ago. and a number of them have been 

 killed at the front, according to let- 

 ters received by friends in this coun- 

 try. In order to get men at some of 

 the estates. $2.75 a day has been 

 offered. 



Will last a life-time.
