LONDON, June 2O.-A department
al committee which has been going
into the conditions Of agricultural
credit in ireland ind that the indsbt-
.edness of Irish farmers has been in
.creasing at the rate of S5.O0OO00 "a
year since under the Wyndham land
act they commenced to settle on their
own land. The opinion is given I'm the
report that facilities for supplying
credit on sound lines TO the smaller
and medium rural classes in Ireland
are inadequate The professional
moneylenders have made an invasion
Of the island. and nearly have driven
out the "gombeen men" who are
saloonkeepers and shopkeepers serv-
ing as moneylenders.
AS a solution of the credit problem
the committee suggests that rural
ireland might itself supply the money
it needs. since the rural community
has $4,000 900 on deposit I'm the Post
Office Savings Banks, a huge sum
which is transferred to London for inn
vestment in Government securities
when IL might be employed at home.
THE committee recommends the estab

pIscouRAeING DIVORCE.

With the crying need for reform which is coming from every divorce court in the land it Is but proper that it awakens serious attention from the ministers who play such an important part in the establishment of the mar riage ties. as to the great responsi- bility which falls upon them. Though they are not the only ones who can perform a marriage ceremony the knowledge that divorce is only a legal stepping stone to another marriage as soon as the ties are severed all has it's influence in keeping the court dockets filled
 It is valuable step towards con tributing whatever Encouragement lies within their power for the checking of divorce when the Pastors Union of New Haven adopted resolutions to the effect that no minister should off ciate at the marriage of:
 A divorced person who has been morally responsible for the divorce, or any divorced person until preferably six months shall have elapsed from the time of the granting of the di- vorce.
 Any divorced person who could not be married under the law of his own state.
 Exceptional cases that may arise shall be referred to the standing com mittee of the pastors union for ap- prova1 before minister shall officiate
 If the resolutions are subscribed to by each and every member of the union. it may mean no more than what is being done by those clergymen, but it is an example which should be the means of extending the movement The divorce evil cannot have too great discOura cement.

GARDENING FOR CHILDREN.

Something to keep the school chil- dren interested for the occupation of their minds when out of school, which provides good exercise and overcomes mischief is the idea of home garden ing. This directed by the school is offered by pr. P. P. Claxton, United Estates commissioner of education as a solution for some of the most press ing educational and economic prob lems in city and suburban life. He would have every vacant lot in town transformed into a garden. where boys and girls would raise vegetables, Der ries and fruit for pleasure and profit. He would have one teacher in the com munity employed for twelve months in the year to teach elementary science in school and direct the home garden work after school, on Satur- days and during the summer vacation.
 What value this could be is real ized by the statement that of the thir- teen million children between the ages of six and twenty in the cities. towns and manufacturing villages of the country not more than fifteen per cent. are away from home during the sum mer vacation or engaged in regular employment. Even play lags with those who make up the S5 per cent. and there is a longing for something to do at least part of the time.
 There are plenty of backwards and vacant lots which could not only be made productive but which could be greatly improved in appearance by some such attention. The problem is to get these wasted spaces, and the spare time together for good results. The idea put into operation should be productive of good results for the chill dren whether the crop reports were greatly augmented or not

It Is not through the display of threadbare interest and enthusiasm in such an organization that aImorfes are obtained however much 1t is felt that they are deserved.

EDUCATIONAL CONGRESSES

For the past week New Haven has been the center of attraction for edu- cators because of the convention of the Religious Education association which has drawn some of the master minds of the country in an effort 10 get at the solution of some of the important problems which are faced by the country. The speakers have made their attacks from various an gfes, it being by no means a one-sided discussion, for where one has seen The wisdom of a certain course an other has had different experiences The result is that there have been many minds offered on many subjects
 It will be found true as the New Haven JournaI-Courier says, that "A clearing house of this chara cter is of inestiinabie value in determining inc thought of the nation upon the ways and means to make most productive Of good the finer traits of human ns- ture. The expression of opinion was varied, and 1t was expected to be No one man, nor no one school of thought has ever executed a mortgage on hu- man wisdom. The man who stakes his all upon cultural processes of edu- cation as the great highway to the formation of character comes with his heavy guns only to find in array against him the earnest man who pre- sents the practical and the vocational processes as more to be desired We all know more today than we knew yesterday. and we are thus prepared to drink in the greater wis dom of tomorrow"

TARIFF AND FARM PRODUCTS

Some interesting statements have been made by Secretary Red1eld con- corning the large amount of foodstuffs which have been imported during the three months since the new tariff went into operation. It reveals the fact that advantage is being taken of the removal of or reduction in rates by the foreign producer when it Is de- clared that 4,450,0Go bushels of corn, 13,230,0o0 bushels of oats, 2,sS0, 900 bushels of potatoes and 64,500, GOO pounds Of rice have been sent into this country since the new tariff schedule became effective, This means an important outlet for the foreign markets and 1t has corrssp ending effect upon ths producers of this eouR- try.
