land is occupied by enormous private hunt
ing preserves and parks. and the tenant
system is discouraging to the enterprising
farmer. The young men have for some
years been going into the cities to learn
trades. Birmingham; Manchester. Liver
pool and. of course London. which sucks
UP its hundreds of thousands every year,
have been swollen inordinately by this
process. The change Is net loss to the
land, for congestion of the trades soon fol-
lowed the initial movement. and this con-
gestion is now the more serious that the
British steel manufactures and other pro-
ducts have lost ground in the foreign mar
ket and even in places in the home mar
ket. In this country the recent census re-
turns bore gratifying evidence of a reac-
ton from the inordinate city movement of
the people which marked the decades fol-
lowing the war showing that agricul-
ture had assumed a new and more whole
some proportion in the occupation of the
inhabitants. With London growing far
beyond its power to support in decent. hon.
est life the millions throngins it's streets,
and the other great centers hurrying for
ward in proportion, there is reason to ex-
pect that effective measures will soon be
taken to restore the equilibrium. AS soon
as the war in Africa is definitely closed
the British government will find no field
Of reform more profitably at hand than
the solution of this demand.
