responsibilities. The experiment deserves a trial. If Parish Councils did rise to their new and important duties, the gain to the rural community would be immense. The management of their own landed property is one of the best educations that could be offered to the villagers.
Framed on these lines, the Unionist land policy would embrace all classes of the rural community. Agricultural labourers, owning their own cottages and gardens, and enjoying rights of pasture common, would have before them new hopes and new interests. Men, who are already more favourably circumstanced, would find, as occupying owners of small holdings, progressive opportunities of advancement. Farmers, secure of their position, whether as tenants or as owners, would dare to stretch themselves to the full extent. Landowners, regaining confidence in their investment, would again embark capital in the common venture of farming. The need of agriculture for more men and more money would be satisfied. The land would yield more produce and support a larger and more contented population. In this revival, improved methods of rural education, credit banks, and co-operation -especially that form which takes the shape of farm villages and is so ably described by Mr Tollemache-would play their part with the financial aid of the State and the hearty support of the Unionist party.
