RUSSIAN EMIGRANT CONDITIONS
REVEALED IN OFFICIAL REPORT

Conditions under which Russians
emigrate to Siberia. as they affect Ha
vail and other countries. are brought
out in the official report of the Rus,
sian Emigration Bureau.
According to the recent rerort OF
the Bureau the number of families
who emigrated from Russia to Siberia
during the four years between 1907
and 1911. and actually settled upon
formi there, was 33S,665, represent
ing nearly two million souls. Not all
Of these families left Russia because
tf lack of land. The approximate
number of acres owned by these emf
grants in the home country before
leaving for Siberia was as follows:
$4,000 families owned more than. q
acres each, of whom 1928 families
owned between q and 40 acres; 1920
families owned between 40 and So
acres; and 2979 families owned more
than 55 acres.
Families owning 40 acres and over
ere considered rich peas ants. in Rus
STA. and were under no necessity Of
emigrating for economic reasons,
while all the families in this group
we're probably able to support item
selves comfortably at home from their
holdings. They posses. ed sufficient
means to emigrate to Siberia without
financial assistance from the Russian
government.
Against these must be set $4,000
families of emgirants who belonged
to the almost penniless class of un-
skilled and agricultural Iaborers and
owned no land at all prior to emigrat
ing. Nearly 131, 600 families owned
land, but less than eight ares, and
we're presumably partly dependent
upon outside employment to maintain
their families; some 1000 families
owned between eight and Is acres, and
$4,000 families between 10 and q
acres. The facts that Russia has 4
short crop season, and often other un-
favorable climatic conditions, that the
peasants are heavily taxed. and that
the land in many districts is not over
fertile and not scientifically cultivated
contribute to place all these 21S.00n
f3.milies-though some Of them owned
holdings that would make a 7SaEt
comfortable in other parts of Europe

J in the class whose subsistence from
their land alone was precarious
er ough to encourage them to emigrate.
In many ports of Russia the farm
Of less than l5 acres appears to be
a failure; for the number of such
| farms, we are told, is decreasing If
it is assumed that fifteen acres is the
minimum holding that will content a
Russian peasant in his own country,
&, per cent of the peasants migrating
to Siberia did so under a sort of ag-
rarian compulsion. The remaining Is
per cent emigs'ated probably from mix
ed motives-some of them because
unsuccessful on their small holdings
though these somewhat exceeded Is
acres-and Others because Undue Il by
the prospect of investing their capital
to advantage on large farms in ST.
IBERIA. The Russian authorities are
said to select the most fertile and
favorably situated tracts of govern
rent land in Siberia for sale to these
peasant capitalists, thus building up
prosperous communities on certain
conspicuous points which are used to
advertise the entire country.
Photographs of these rich peasant
farms and settlements are on frequent
exhibition in public places in Russia,
where they attract the attention Of
Leasants-sometimes conveying
rather overcolored impression of ST.
teria as a whole. The mOneyless pea
SAINTS who emig~ate with government
assistance are forced to accept less
de-. irable lands, in remote localities
and their disappointment is expressed
in a large back-f1ow of emigrants from
Siberia proper, and in the emigration
that has started from Siberia to Can
ada, Australia and Hawaii.
