(1) In a general way we all kaew that farmers need labor and need it eenly, and the data collected by Secretary Bruner. of the department of agriculture, shows a definite farm labor from 77 counties, 1 or about 80 per cent, of the state, and an aggregate of 4 approximately 62,000 farm laborers needed by those who sent estimates. This indicates an actual need of perhaps 90,000 to 000 at the present time. As compared with the need of manufacturers, the bureau of labor estimates the number of larm laborers in the state at 450.000 and the number of laborers employed by the manufacturing interest at 90,000.

From the besc 1 availa'3le sources it is estimated that short. In actual numbers, the need of the farmers is six times greater than that of the factories and mills. If tho manufacturers suffer a loss of 15 ro 20 per cent in the capacity of th-iir mills for the lack of labor, do, not the farmers suffer equally for the lack of labor, which compels them to good land lying idle, and do-they not suffer worse wtten for Of labov laDoi- they lose matured crops which can be harvested How many North lina farmers will plant their crops this spring with the assurance of having enough labor to properly cultivate and harvest them?

This opinion is baqed on actual experience during ibo last two years in bringing immigrants to this state arid locating them on small farms There Is at present a very large of, foreign, farmer, om-. igrants to this country; most of whom settle in the north and west because for many years the great tide, of smtlon has taken that path and their 1 relatives Urid friends, already settled, wo ir ThMft farmw imnii- cause they seek to escape kent them down to a bare existence with absolutely no chance to improve their condition.

The direct shipment to the port near- est ultimate destination is of the greatest importance; if we depend on out- side ports-whether New -York, Char-leston, or Norfolk, we will get what other people don't want. HThe essential is to furnish our agents road with schedules of occupations, Vages, accommodations, so that the prospective immigrant may, before leaving the other side, know definitely what to expect, and this can be done quite as well for the farmeras for the manufacturer.
