"DAYLIGHT SAVING BILL."

To the Editor Shannon News

Sir—-With reference to the Daylight Saving Bill before Parliament, we hear a lot about the extra hardship that will be put upon farmers and their wives if this bill is made the law of the land. . Now, Sir, as this is a farming district I would like very much to have some farmer or his wife or both explain how they would be put to all this extra hardship by the passing of this Bill. .- „ I do not think that the carrying of this measure would harm or inconvenience the farmer in any way. It will only give him more time to get more out of his workers. As far as I can see the farmers and their wives have no real reason to object to the passing of this Act, and their motives are mainly selfish as regards it, and as they do not need it themselves they, through pure cussedness, want to prevent the Town worker' from enjoying the,privilege and improving his Avorking conditions. I am etc. DIOGENES.
