FARMERS ALARMED.
EMIGRATION OF BEST MEN. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. London, June 1. The National Farmers’ Union has memorialised the Government, protesting against the depletion of the countryside, where the shortage of farm hands is already acute. The Australian and Canadian immigration policies are calculated to benefit the Dominions at the expense of British agriculture. The surplus population, which the Dominions do not accept, exists only in the cities and towns. The memoralists declare that British agriculture is losing its youngest and most skilful land workers, and British food production must decline in consequence.
