DR.. lnal-Castgilone manager Of the
Labor Information Bureau for Italians
IN New York.
The belief IL prevalent that Italian immi-
grants do not desire to be tillers OF the
soil An this country. So far as this Is
true, native Americans are partly respon-
sible. without explanation OF the south
ern plantation proprietor the desertion Of
the Siciiians might even have been men
toned to prove the common assumption.
The opinion shared by SO many Is erro-
neous. No less than III Italian agricul-
tural colonies exist IN the United States.
These have q population Of almost AOOo
Italian families. The majority Of them
are formed not By farm hands working for
other people, but by farmers owning the
land they cultivate.
Since most OF the Italian immigrants
we're accustomed 20 agricultural work at
home this may seem a meagre showing.
Why do peasants from Calabrisn vineyards
botake themselves to the over-erowded
cities making no use OF the experience
Of a lifetime and OF a skin which Is often
Of q high order? Il Is not because they
are by nature against working on the land.

Finding the Reasons.
The reasons are simple. At home the
Immigrants either had no land or else
owned but a tiny parcel The money they
have barely suffices TO bring them to
America they cannot think OF buying
farms. They do not find here colonization

that every one who really wants 1t can
manage to buy some cheap tract of land
oftwo or three acres, on river, lake, sea-
shore or mountain-side, and build there
a camp which will give him comfort and
relaxation dnring his two or four weeks
leave of absence. There is an unlimited
amount of good times and good health in
this amateur pioneering. The children
of the family will love it and be benefited
by it, and the women folk will rejoice in
its simplified housekeeping"

are effecting a change in the external
appearance of both Paris and Colonel

ception which Paris gave the colonel
on his arrival here is now being
atoned for by daily increasing

private buildings, larger crowds gath.

At luncheon at the Hotel DeVille
the president of the council proposed
the health of Colonel Roosevelt and
his family and the prosperity OF the

remained standing.
Colonel Roosevelt replied in French
saying he was profoundly touched by
this welcome at the center Of civiliza
ton. He drank a glass to Paris and
the French nation.
After luncheon the colonel visited
the Carnavalo Museum, where his
family Joined him in looking at the
order given by Louis XVI. on the day

Boys! How about planting some Of
the vacant lots about town this summer
and seeing how much you can earn dur
ing vacation. The work will do you
good, besides keeping you off the streets,
which is good thing to do. We believe
that snug sum could be made in this
manner. There are many vacant lots
that the owners would be only too glad to
haye cultivated. Try it once. Get the
habit of doing something for yourselves
while you are young. See how much you
can save and you will be surprised at the
''nest egg" you will have by the time
you leave school. Do not idle away your
time in useless pursuits that bring you
no return for time and energy spent.
One croaker makes more noise than q
dozen quiet workers. For the love of
your town and its surroundings, and to
maintain little degree of respect for
yourself, If you belong to class of pessi-
mestic doubters, leave off your doubts
and get busy for your home community.

ONE Of the most cruel wrongs in the
present reign Of high prices is the swind-
ling that is being done in the loafof bread
sold to the people, In almost every in
stance 1t is under weight. In most cases
there is loss OF from % TO 30 per cent.
The whole thing is an outrage, and it
hits hardest those who can least afford
it, the poor There should be movement
to standardize the loaf of bread, and il
should be sold by weight. We under
stand that in some States there are laws,
and we also understand that these laws
are very imperfectly enforced. In New
York City the loaves vary by as much as
seven or eight ounces. In Chicago, we
are told that the conditions are as bad if
not worse. In all sections where we have
made inquiries the evil is general and
acute. Ii is well that attention should be
given to this matter at once. Consumers
should see that the laws which protect
them are put into effect. And if the laws
do not exist they should move upon their
State and Municipal Legislatures and
compel the action that will give to them
the value OF their money. Surely there
is no form OF graft or larceny so mean as
that which takes a brgand's toll from
those who must get full value for the
little money they have in order to live
decently. The people of the United
States consume almost 600, 900, 900 bushels
OF wheat each year The average food
cost of the workingman's family In
America is under S4CO 90. Put these big
facts together the enormous bread con-
sumption and the modest means of family
support-and you have an appalling
showing of what it means to steal half the
poor mans loaf-"The World About
Us" in The Ladies World for May.
