ROME, Nov. 30
The General Assembly of the, International Institute of Agriculture met at Rome. Signor Littoni, presiding, described it as the first session of the Parliament of the world.
Mr. Taverner, of Victoria, expressed at the proposed organisation of the Institute as being too Continental in character, and not sufficiently imbued with the methods and customs of English countries interested in pastoral,, agricultural and dairying industries,though their trade and commercial standing entitled them to recognition. He urged the Institute to render practical aid to producers enabling tliem to protect tlieir interests.
King Emanuel gave audience to' the delegates.
