Value of Immigrants as Agn-,
cultural Workers.
European Land Tillers Prefer to En
-.go In Oilier Pursuits When They
Come to the United States—Sugges
tions For Sscuring Farm Help.
C. A. l.arinon, who is at the head of
th ■ iuiuiiarant bureau at Albany and
w > was chairman of the committee
or: Immigration and farm labor at the
New York state grange meeting, pro
se red soaie very important facts eon
cei liiiKfarm labor in tills country. lie
said that the question of immigration
ha 1 become one of vital importance in
vi.'W of the fact that in the past
ten year iS.OOO.uOO immigrants hall
cone to these shores, speaking tiftv
.ii (-rent languages. Since IS2O 20,-
00.i.000 ha ie come. It is mjeessarv, ho
sai;l, that they should be properly in
formed, directed and cared for when
they arrive, and if they are they may
be expeo'cd to add millions annually
to the nation's wealth. The last year
13f,,000 of the immigrants who came
he e were farm hands In Europe, but
in all engaged in some other pur
suits here.
On tho subject of securing help for
the farm. . s of the state be made tho
folio win tc u gg< 'St ion:
i irm homes should ho established In nil
parts o£ ll tiato and be placed In charge
of xperk.iH. ii men to which iriiinisr.-tnts

of men under.tandlnK the language of
the iinnr.t rant would so.>n malce t :om

have a home during peiiods of emrioy

People general'v read advertisements more than they did a few years
The reason is to be found in the advertisements themselves.
Advertisers are more careful tlian they used to be. They make the advertise

every d'iy with as much zest and pleasure ns they turn to/"""A
