The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1903-12-19

The call from the south for immigrants
reminds one Of the fact that the great tide
Of immigration which has been pouring
into this country for years has not settled
towards the South, but had found its place
in the East and West The South offers,
however, an inducement in the line Of ag
riculture to immigrants. Now there Is a
great scarcity of labor 10 that branch Of
industry because the residents Of the
South have been drawn towards the mills,
leaving the fields without tillers. The
loss is greatest through the shifting OF the
negroes to some other industry. Andrew
Carnegie says that the South is dependent
upon the eleven millions of negroes for
its cotton industry. Although he may
have set the figures rather high it is GER
tain that the South does miss its negroes
when it comes to the plain necessity of one
of its chief industries.
