The average increase for the eight
decades between 1920 and 1900 was IL
per cent It is evident, say the stat1s-
ticians, that in another ten years we
shall need the immigrants to keep
our numbers from decreasing. by
the time another census is taken, the
native population, according to these
figures, will show an actual falling
off in numbers.
I'm spite of the great talk about
back-to~the-farm movement, there
has been no perceptible moving. Eco
nomic considerations. the very high
prices for farm products, ought, 1t
would seem, to send people to the
country If prices go much higher, it
would appear difficult to find more
attractive line of business than agri-
culture"
Two points are made very clear in
this reference to census indications.
One is that the country districts need
newcomers to stay the falling off in
the rural population, and the other
is that were it not for immigration our
national growth in population would
be inconsiderable. The people of the
cities are not going into the country
to run the abandoned and neglected
farms. But the immigrant is. Here
in the East one class of immigrants.
the Poles, have made remarkable
headway as farmers. One the farther
end. of Long Island where they be-
gan as farm laborers twenty years or
so ago, the Poles now own a large
number of the best farms. A similar
condition exists in parts of New En-
gland What would the Northwest
be without the Scandinavians? other
races are constantly contributing to
the advance of other sections of the
country Abe fact is that without the
immigrants we would before long be
at tandstill.-Catholic News.

OUR NEED OF THE IMMIGRANT.

It used to be the habit of a certain
osed as intense American patriots, to
utter grave warnings against the
dreadful menace to Our country's
we'll being in the large immigration
from European lands to these shores.
But Americas peril from the "hordes
of ignorant foreigners" was dinned in
vain into the ears Of long-headed cit
izens of the United States. All of us
capable of honest thinking know that
immigration has largely helped to
make our coutry the great nation that
it is to day. That there is still plenty
of room for the immigrant must be
admitted by every one who studies
present day conditions throughout the
country. recent census report, thus
summarized in the Catholic Sentinel,
of Portland, Oregon. shows the need
nowadays for immigrants:
"A remarkable showing of the new
census is the growth of cities at the
expense of the country districts Not
only in the West, but throughout the
East, there are cities showing in
creases of so. so and 20 per cent over
the returns of ten years ago. The in
crease of the cities is not all due to
immigration and the excess of births
over deaths The country districts in
many cases, show an actual falling
off in populations; in some cases as
high as eleven per cent.
''The census is expected to show a
total population of ninety millions, as
against seventy-six millions in 1900.
Nine millions of this increase came
from immigration, and only five mill
lions from the internal increase. Ex-
elusive of immigrants. the decade
shows an increase Of only per cent.
