The Fanling Economic Garden, If the Fanling Economic Garden project is not entirely forgotten, this statement of the results which have followed from the educational policy pursued by the Japanese in Korea ehonald do something to revive interest in the effort. The very interest- ing report on the New Territories prepared by Mr. Orme a couple of years ago showed how helpful such education might be in the sgricultural districts across the water, though we do not recollect that Mr. Orme, put forward any plan for overcoming the " difficulties which stand in the way of the greater agricultural development of the territory. He referred to efforts which have been made from time to time by enterprising individuals to im prove the standard of cultivation in the New Territories, and he pointed out that failure in such casos had been due not so much. to unsuitability of the soil or climate, as to want of proper... attention to alack management and unskilled labour, Would it not be worth some elfcri to over- come these obstacles to progress on the same lines as the Japanese have pursued in Korea? There ie ecopo for agricultural enter prise in the New Territories, and we should be sorry to learn that the Economio Garden project had been dropped.
