Dr. ADDISON

I have no information as to the number of agricultural workers at present employed in the county of Essex but the number returned as employed on 4th June last was 29,813, that is 25,232 regular workers and 4,581 casual workers. There are no statistics available to show the number of agricultural workers unemployed.
