when preventative medicine was unknown, and the sick, whatever disease they suffered from, were bled by the surgeon- barber, whose sole knowledge was of blood letting and whose patients had an expectation of life that lacked a quarter of a century of that held by the twentieth century citizen: when farm families worked long hours to wrest a meagre living from the soil by the sweat of their brows, and the avenue of escape from this drudgery open to those who did not take kindly to farm labour was \u2018to enter \u2018service\u2019.* * x And from the standpoint of the general public, as well as from that of the individual worker in industry and agriculture, science and invention have brought beneficent gifts in the past century or so.Not only is the average standard of living and of education vastly higher amongst industrial workers than it formerly was, despite temporary depressions, but the average tamily enjoys comforts and even luxuries that were the monopoly of princes a century ago\u2014and largely because the factory system of rnass production has \u2018eut down their cost.In agriculture, too.standards of living have advanced as mechanical inventions and scientific knowledge have increased, while the increased productive power of our farmers and the improved systems of storage and transportation have largely removed from mankind the fear of famine which hovered over large sections of the world a century ago\u2014just as knowledge in the domain of medicine has already banished the dread of the pestilence, another of the \u2018four horse- + men.* * x In this issue of The Journal we have endeavoured to present, pictorially and otherwise, some of the more striking phases of the ohysical change that has been worked in farming and farm practices since the invention of the reaper, a hundred years ago.made the agricultural worker master of more than his own hand-power.But side by side with this has been an equally potent force at work for the betterment of the farmer's lot\u2014that of applied intelligence.sometimes known as science.While ingenious brains have been at work inventing machines that would enable the individual worker to till more land and harvest and thresh the resultant crop with a decreasing expenditure of physical toil, laboratory workers have been discovering many important secrets concerning soil management, plant breeding, disease and insect control, and economists have brought to bear on farm management practices some of the principles that have proved worth while in other fields of business.* x *x Though every farmer, on this continent at any rate, has shared a 7 LY Q WY Hey Ww Ly } 7 2 ! | 4 Un a A 2 ga À JL a i nb y i SR fl i 5 5 ÿ # CU 2 A l 7 « fs ) pu he fo \u20ac 5 7 = al WY, } ÿ b 4 pr y n hes pry bi a 4 5 a V4 7 æ > iz RA JA pi ñ w 7 i, 4 À 4 RE) + WA nek i 5e AT i] A i En {3 dti oh 8 4 of Ay i y A 5% \u201cTe 2 ios 5 Ce C A5 AN 7% wl ¥ 2, 7177 ir oF rar ot ;
