The farm is a seven- day-week proposition and must al- ways remain so. Here we are up against a fact, not a theory, --- nothing can change it. Even the present urban scheme of work is highly indolent by comparison. The inevitable social and economi- cal answer to a five-day-week is an increase in the price of food products of so fantastic a nature as to render farming the most highly-paid of hu- man occupations. Or, ag a first ef- fect, spectacular rural depopulation, as a logical reaction to so attractive an urban scheme of life, followed by a perjod of wholesale starvation, leading to the high agricultural price | Society obviously cannot exist level. with one-half of the people working ! forty hours and the other half sixty- five strenuous hours per week, with- out one class paying the other ample compensation. Contrary to popular superstition, idleness and happiness are not synonimous terms. atural laws will fix hours and compensations inthe end. | But Canada, being still in a 'com- paratively undeveloped state, must for many years to come bid for ad- ditional rural population and must, therefore, see to it that the country- side does not suffer unduly through a too unfavorablé comparison be- tween the rural and. the urban work- ing program, even if it is only-of a temporary nature. An overwhelm- ingly agricultural country, such as Canada is, cannot with impunity in- crease the social burden of its agri- culture in order to further improve the living conditions of its urban workers. mk nmi oni ort Nurseries Give Warm Soper Nu to Immigrants.
