ROME, May 9.
King George placed wreaths on Victor Emmanuel and Humbert's tombs in the Pantheon, also the Tomb of the Unknown Warrior. King George visited the International Institute of Agriculture. In a speech he expressed his personal active interest in tho fortunes and misfortunes of the agricultural industry, not only of his own country and tho Dominions but throughout the world. His sympathy went out to his fellow agriculturists, who had to combat special difficulties owing to tho severe fall in prices following tho war unheaval. The way to peace, and prosperity is uphill, but perhaps tho best and most direct path is along the lines of competition as admirably followed by the International Institute, which supplied the farmers in all countries with the latest practical scientific information.
