Another matter TO be considered In discuss
ing the capabiiity OF ireland TO sustain her
present popuiatioh IL the character OF her agri-
cultural prouue's. During the last twenty
years there mas been notable tendency to turn
oou-prooueine hololhGs TRIO GRAZING farms.
Ihus the humocr OF acres devoted to cerealcrops
had iaiien from 2,639,OOO in 1880 to l.7G6.OOO
In 1851; ana there was decline in tho same
period OF moro than twenty per cent. In the

clover crops. on the other hand. there was an
increase OF 3l5.0O0 acres. and the area assign
60 10 pasturage had been Increased bv nearly n
miiIloh acres. In an article comparing the
prouuctlon OF DEMONSTRATING staples In the
years 1896 ana 1857 DIR. Lyon Plnyfair has
SHOWN that the products oil Ireland In the last
named year were not capable OF feeding as
large population by at least l.e0O.OoO
~ were those OF the former year. IL IL
argued. however. by the opponents OF emil
grafton, that II this tendency to supersede
image py grazing were reversed, ana II all the
land now devoted to sheep and cattle farms
were divided among peasant propretors. each
anxious 10 extract human iood from tho SOIL
theh ireland would DC able TO sustain much
larger population than 1t does now we know
that forty years ago 1t did actually feed four
miiiiohs more IMAM II is aoe 10 support to-day
Mr.. King confirms. however. the report of
other observers that for some OF the poorer tom
antry in the west OF Ireland-where their hold
inEs are too small to feed their families. even
though no rent at all were asked of them
emigration does seem to offer the only remedy
And. OF course. IL this be true Of men who Mt
least have roof over their heads. it is douhy
true OF the homeless mon, who number some
