The origin of agriculture is lost in
the mists Of antiquity. We know taat
in neolithic times in Europe eight
kinds Of cereals were cultivated. be-
sides flax, peas. poppics, apples. pears,
bullace, plums, etc. At the same time
various animals were domesticateG
Among thess were horses. Short horned
oxen, horned sheep. goats, two breeds
of pigs and dogs. Professor w. Hoyd
Dawkins says that evidence goes t.
show that these animals were not 90
INVESTIGATED in Europe, but probably III
the central plateau Of Asia. He also
thinks that agriculture arose in the
south and east Of Europe and spread
gradually to the center, north and
west. A hunting population is often
worry ayerse TO even the slight amount
If work that agriculture requires III a
tropical country. The same holds good,
MS a rule. for pastoral communities.
In all cases a powerful coEstraint is
necessary to force these peoples Into
unconcenial employment. Fate IS
rong than will, and at various Pc
RODS. in different climes, hunters and
herders have been forced to till the
soil.-Professor A. c. MADDEN In
