IMMIGRANTS MOSTLY OF THE FARM CLASS While TotaLs ,Are Disappoint- ing Stitistics Show 65 Per Cent. Agriculturists. A despatch from Ottawa says :-A steady increase in they proportion of agricultural classes to the total im migration is one of the important re- sults of the efforts of the Dept. of Immigration and Colonization during the last three years and will be shown in the complete figures for the first quarter of the present fiscal year - April, May and June -to be issued shortly. Immigrants in the agricultural and domestic servant clams during April, May and June in the year 1923 were 46 .per eent. of the whole immin gration; in 1924 they were 63 per cent.; and in the same three months of the present year 63 per cent. of the total immigration, while of the total immigration through ocean ports and excluding incoming farm- ers from the United States, the per- centage of agricultural and domestic • servant classes in April, May and June of 1923 was 46 per cent.; 54 per cent. ho 1924, and 05 per cent. in the same period this year. In the whole year of 1913, the last full year be- fore the war, the percentage was only 30 per cent. of the total. In numbers the immigration into Canada in the firet three months of the present fiscal year is disappoint- ing, the total being about 33,000, as compared with 47,813 in the time period hast yeas. As for immigration from the Brit- ish Isles, every possible encourage- inent has been given, and since inspec- tion was undertakesi •seriously the 'regulations have never been easier for peciple to come to Canada from • the Mother Country. • The conditions imposed upon them are: Good health, good character, no pasereht, no guar- antee of employment; no stated money requirement, but sufficient to enable them to join their friends here or find a job. Linked up with the higher cost of transportation, the reason given for the drop in immigration from Great Britain ander the Empire scheme is that the families otherwise qualified have not` the requisite money. For an average family, about $500 is neces- sary to get out here and settle on the land, but the number able to spend • that amount is small. For a fumily of five, the $500 would be used up in transportation costs alone. 4 • Fighting Craft Reviewed by King Victor of Italy A despatch from Syracuse, Sicily, says: -An imposing array of 300 fighting ships of all types and ton- nages, comprising the entire naval force' of Italy, steamed majestically through the glistening' azure waters. of the Ionian seat at Cape leirrodi Poroc; passing- in review before King Victor Emilianuel, Crown Prince Humbert and Admiial Acton, chief of staff of the Italian Navy, who look- ed onn from the deck of the Royal • Inecht Savoie. • • Soon after dawn all the ships which' • had 'pavticipated in the manoeuvres of the last week in Sardinian and Si- cilian teeters were drawn up off Syracuse: Then for two hours • an impressive' double line of war craft passed before. the King, , with the dreadnaughts Conti di Cavout, Dante Alighieri, Andrea Doria and Giulio' Cesare. heading the procession.

By order of the Prefect the picturesque night watchmen of Con- stantinople must shave off their flow- ing beards and crop their long hair. Also they must replace their earl- eolored turbans and scarfs and baggy trousers with a uniform resembling that of the regular police. No longer are the wakeful inhabi- tants of the city toehear the reaseur- lug beat of their long iron -tipped sticks on the cobblestones or thieires make their escape, thanks to the warning tap -tap -tap. • The sticks of the watchmen have been confiscated and the policeman's billy, less attrae- tee but of more practical value, is to be carried indeed. Heretofoee the watchmen or "bikcl- jis," as they are called, have collected gratuities from householders on their beats instead of receiving regular wages.

New Zealander Travels 13,000 Miles to Tell Story of Murder W. a Clark, of Dunedin, New Zea- land, arrived in London reeently after traveling 13,000 miles to tel the story of the murder of a comrade, which he witnessed in Cologne in 1919. "The New Zealand Goveenment," he told re"Daily Mail" reporter, "has sent me to give evidence about the death of Private Cromer, of the Otago Regi- ment, New Zealand, whom I saw shot dead on February 7, 1919. I expect , to go to Cologne in a few days' time." At the begiening of the Allied oc- cupation on the Rhine a band of Ger- man youths swore to cut off the hair ' of all girls who fraternized with mem- bers of the army of occupation. On the day he met his death Private Cro- mer talked with a gill who was sitting on the same bench in a park.
