Every year at certain seasons. when we hear of the demand for farm labor. gentlemen on this floor will pull long faces and solemnly express an oinion that a proper distribution of imnigration would solve the problem. I venture to predict that until the employing farmer can offer a steady job to all whom he employs we shall never be free from this cry as to the shortage of farm labor. As to distribution. for eight years we have had a law intended to encourage it. South Carolina has. tried it. She imported direct some 700 immigrants. All of them left her. Distribute men to your hearts content.
