States. Mbst. of them must. have come to. this country in the last 25 years. because: the percentage has wonderfully. increased. in that time.- So that. today the percentage of. foreignborm. people is- much greater- in the rural districts- than in. 1900. or in 1890.. Therefore. the statements on the parti of those gentlemen who persistently maintain that. the immigrant does. not. go to the farm. are not founded upon facts. What the immigrant desires most. as soon as he can accomplish it. Is to secure a. piece- of: land that he can call lis o.%n. and you .will finol that the great Northwest and western sections- of our country have been mainly developed by the work and cooperation- of the immigrant.
