the lack Of help may become serious.
our Investigation leads us 60 believe
tiht there Is likely to bo a larger sup
ply OF labor, however, in the depart
ment Of farm hands. The registration
of farm hands has been larger during
tho past month than during the
months preceding. in spite of the
short month"
Tho apparent discrepancy In the
sentences quoted IS explained by
showing that tho prospects for the
future in regard to farm work are
much better than tho recent months
have shown The Importance OF this
statement viii be appreciated when II
is remembered that New York City
depends for it's food supply largely
upon tho amount and character Of the
labor crop that comes into sight on
tho upstate farms.
Brooklyn is the only ono OF the New
York city boroughs which Is included
in the commissions detailed report In
that borough IL is shown that during
February Of 1915 1875 applications for
work came to the state. from which
gO2 were placed. or the applications
l,ll0 came from men and 165 came
from women. Tho men provided with
positions amounted TO 46S and the
women 10 f3i. During the past month
the same borough showed that l.547
persons asked for work and that 1,174
