The story of the decline in agriculture in the United Kingdom 

 during the twenty years between 1S93 and 1913 is only relieved by a 

 slight increase in the yield of potatoes. On the other hand, the enor- 

 mous increase obtained in Germany in the yield of the main crops 

 for human consumption prove what can be done even on inferior 

 soil under an enlightened Land Policy.
