Vacant Lot Culture.

James ]. Hill has drawn a severe In
dictment of Americans for their crime
of wastefulness. He argues with
modicum of truth in his declarations
that it is not So much the absence Of
opportunity that the American people
suffer from as the failure to improve
the opportunities presented them
The vacant city lot is a neglected
opportunity. Graded and sown to grass,
it could be beautif1ed and given an
aesthetic value otherwise it lacks.
Planted in vegetables, it would yield
return for the labor expended upon
it and render easier the domestic
problem of making ends meet.
The charity organization of Indian
apolis, working through a committee
on vacant lot culture. caused the cul-
tivation of 326 lots last year. Some of
the lots were planted in flowers. and
these were tended by school children.
When the flowers blossomed they were
sent to the hospitals. Some Of the
vegetables raised on other lots were
given to charitable institutions, and
others to the poor. Prizes were award
ed for the best vegetable patches, 10
boys who cultivated two vacant lots
on which they raised 20 bushels of
beans, 10 bushels of onions, bushels
of lettuce and 200 punches of radishes,
winning the first prize.
The cultivation of these plots of
ground by boys and girls serves not
only to train them in habits of indus
try, but to acquaint them with the
science of agriculture in some meas
ure, and of which they would other
wise probably be wholly ignorant.
Moreover, in Transforming the vacant
places into gardens and flower beds,
they are not unsightly dumping
grounds for refuse, and attest the ap-
plication of industry and the presence
of thrift.
If the people are to be cured of the
national sin of wastefulness, the rem
edy ought to be applied to the chill
dren. Employing them in wholesome
and productive work out of doors is
an excellent training school for the re-
sponsibilities that will come to them
with the years.

Discussing the effect of industrial ac-
cidents on the standard of living, Pro
fessor Henry r. Seager, writing in the
last issue of the Survey, says: "A
careful estimate indicates that in the
United States not less than 100000
persons are seriously i'll all the time.
of these 100000 persons about 90O,-
600 are males Is years of age and over.
Taking the moderate estimate that
100000 of these are wage earners. with
families, we get some idea of the part
that Illness plays in recruiting the
army of the disheartened and ineffec-
tive. If industrial accidents lower the
standards of living of 100000 persons
in the United States every year, it is
safe tc say that illness depresses the
Io.S~of more than 100000"
