The Label widget has a wraplength option, which determines the maximum
length of a line before it is being wrapped.

If you want to learn more about widget options you might want to have a
look at John Shipman's excellent and up to date Tkinter reference:

There is also Frederick Lundh's Tkinter book (still work in progress but
nevertheles an invaluable source):
