FAMILIES ARE NEEDED, TOO
State Board Carrying 0nt Provisions
Of immigration Bill

II VI HAAlutEASeaS-4 --s-e
The State Board Of Agriculture will
this week, determine upon one Of foul
courses open to it by suggestion and pro
positions from varions channels. to carry
into effect the migration oct for the re.
| lief Of Delaware farmers and the opening
| OF untitled lands in tllis State, which
statute carries with it all annual appro-
priation Of 81, 900
The four propositions, which have been
puzzling the Board, reduced as it Ii to
rigid economy to see that the 81, 600 is
wisely and most proftably expended In
manner that will bring sure results are:
First, to communicate with help
agencies all over the country asking for
families 10 come TO Delaware and assist
the farmers of this State in whatever
operations they can be found useful.
Second, to empty Philadelphia labor
agent who speaks FIVE languages and is
recommended by prominent trade organ-
izations and corporations, to Finland,
Norway and Germany, TO secure irnit3
grafton Of rural Iaborers othis State.
Third, to go into Northern Canada,
where it is most unproductiye and place
before dissatisfied inhabitants there the
good prospects awaiting them in the fruit
farming districts OF productive Delaware.
Fourth, TO visit Lancashire, England,
where disastrous rainy season has inn
poyerished and discouraged the popula-
tion, aud there present the claims and
opportunity Of Delaware agriculture.
Il have been represented as saying
ing that the farmers of Delaware we're
not paying enough wages and that was
the trouble" said Secretary Wesley
Webb to-day, "but that is misquotatioD.
l did say that We could not compete With
South Carolina which State if support
ing foreign agencies at large appropria-
lions, to get men to immigrate to South
Carolina and labor in the cotton fields in
summer and the cotton mills in winter.
But that is not exactly what we are
liter. Delaware has thousands Of large
arms with comfortable tenant houses

,lot of his own. and may keep COW,
poultry and hogs II the family wants
uel, all they have to do is to 60 Into the
foods and cut it. In fruit season they
II get enough extra fruit to conserve for
he winter. Soon these families save
nouglt to buy small farm of their own.n
