The British land system differs widely
from that prevailing In other couhtrieo'
In Great Britain the bulk OF the land IN
town and country Is IN the hands or
email number OF large landowners. About
Q 5Oo nersons own more than one-haf or
the national soil. The vast majority or
the British people are landless. Great
Britain is a land of leaseholders and ten
ants. Abroad the bulk of the land Is
not held by a few thousand large land
holders, but by millions OF small ones.
Freehold farms and cottages are the rule
in the country, and freehold houses are
.. the rule in the towns. The majority OF
the families In France, Germany ana
MANY other countries live In freehold
houses OF their own and till their own
soil. and most other nations are nations
OF freeholders. During the last few de-
cades British agriculture has utterly de-
clined and decayed. The millions OF acres
which were At for intensive cultivation
have been abandoned by the plough
The ominous rapidly with which agri-
culture has shrunk can be seen from the
following decrease In acreage under crops,
| Z, es1, 2s1 acres, and the increase In acreage
under permanent pasture, S.6SS,0l2 acres
leaving a balance of 100000 acres unac-
counted for. which have probably been
! converted into golf courses. parks and
building sites In the fifty years between
1851 and 1901 the number Of male agricult-
ural laborers declined in England and
Wales from 1os7. 800 to $4,000; in Scotland
from $40, 800 to 1880. and in Ireland from
SS0,10O TO 2l2,2oo.
am told that the average value Of
agricultural land in England indicates a
fall in capital Of from f273 an acre in 1910
to f24.4 an acre in 1911.
The loss OF money which the decay of
England's agriculture has entailed has
been prodigious. The Royal Commission

have less than one-quarter OF that
amount. AS the ownership Of freehold
land and houses is widespread among the
German working masses, they own prop
ably about 8,O0O,0O00O Of capital. while
the capital of the British working masses
is estimated TO amount only to from
1900, 900, 900 to Fl. 100000.
Owing to me wastefulness which is IN
dlssolubly connected with the leasehoid

on Agriculture estimated in It's report
published in 1897. that the loss caused u
Great Britain through the decay OF her
rural industries since 1874 amounted 10
q 900 O0,O 900 That loss is constantly grow
ing. In 1905 Sir Robert Palgrave est-
mated the loss at f1,70Oo 100000, and II may
now reach f2,OO0 10000. The loss to the
nation in money alone is about three
times as large as her colossal natonai
debt. The destruction of England's agr-
culture has caused a loss eight times as
great as the cost Of the Boer war anu
almost as large as the sum total or her
foreign investments.
In Germany 81 per cent OF the lana IL
cultivated by owners, and In Great
Britain IL per cent is cultivated oy the
owners. In Germany 1t has been the UNI
yersal experience that small holdings are
far more productive than large ana very
large ones, and this is only natural pc
cause the small freehold farmer VINO
| works for himself works far more COLI
scientiously than the agricultural laborer
I who works for a wage, or the tenant
| farmer who fears that substantial I'M
provement in his farm may lead 10 an
| increase in the rent.
/ The arguments In favor OF recreatlhs
British agriculture by creating very
| large number of small freeholds are abb
solutely overwhelming.
The matter Of housing is also one OF
Great Britain's problems. and much dis
/ satisfaction of the masses is no doubt due
| to bad housing conditions. | am OF the
opinion that the most important problem
will work out its own salvation as soon as
/ the other land reforms are well under
way.
In the towns. as in the country, the SOIL
is in comparatively few hands. Briush
| townspeople are leaseholders and tenants
/ but not freeholders. The leasehold sys-
| tenn is a British institution. In foreign
countries the house and the soil on "hlch
! il stands go together as matter Oh
course, and in many countries 1t Is illesai
to separate the one from the other. Inc
! leasehold system has many grave disad-
yantages; by dividing the house from the
soil on which It stands 1t introduces di-
| vided ownership in single object. and
| thereby causes friction and wastefuiness'
The interests of the owner of the soil or
of the owner of the lease and those or the
tenant or sub-tenant are not identlcai'
but antagonistc.
/ The leasehold system discourages thrlit
