29 MARCH 1924, Page 11

Judging by present indications the year 1924 will be the

best one from the immigration standpoint which Canada . has experienced since 1914. A feature of the immigration this year is the number of domestic servants going from the North of England. It is also satisfactory to note that the Western farmers seeking labour offer a year's employ- ment to the newcomer instead of three months only, as was the case in the past. The fact that the vast majority of the harvesters who went out to Canada last summer have remained in the country is the best kind of propa- ganda the Dominion can have.
