New and Improved Methods 



great estates will have to be reduced. 

 Every facility should be given to the 

 farmers to purchase their holdings 

 rather than allow land speculators to 

 come in. 

 (7) Landowners should encourage their 

 sons while at school and college to take 

 up courses of instruction that will be 

 of practical use to them in the manage- 

 ment of land. 

 Great changes must come over the country 

 as a result of this war. It is impossible to 

 think that we shall fall back into the same 

 old grooves — indeed, we should not even 

 wish to do so. Every citizen must be as 

 efficient as possible in his own sphere, and 

 if landowners wish to retain any influence in 

 future land reforms they must show that 

 they are worthy of leadership. They must 

 show that they understand the part that 

 land must play in national development and 

 in social reform. They must show that they 

 understand the aspirations of the labourer, 

 and are willing to help him to better his 

 position.
