In general it may be said that the wages of experienced season hands (hands employed for a period of seven. seven and a half. or eight months. beginning about April 1) are on the same general level in Manitoba and Minnesota and also on the same general level in Saskatchewan and North Dakota. and they are higher in the two lastnamed localities than in the two first named.
