[While we do not agree that an exten- 

 sive training in gardening is necessary, 

 for both master and scholars learn from 

 mistakes, there is no doubt that an 

 absolutely inexperienced teacher is in 

 general useless for a school garden. In 

 general, in Ceylon, we have gone upon 

 the principle ot establishing such 

 gardens only where the master was 

 keen about such work. The scheme is 

 now growing to a size when proper 

 training for the masters is woi'th con- 

 sideration.— Ed.]
