Description:Excerpt from The Empire Review and Magazine, Vol. 17: February, 1909 Let me now pass to the more permanent causes of unemploy ment. Every year sees new improvements in machinery. Work that occupied the labour of a hundred hands not long ago, and these hands mostly men, is now performed by a third of that number, and in many cases the reduction is lower still. To mention only a few of the great labour-saving machines used in every class of factory work would take more space than I have at my disposal, while in agriculture the labour-saving machines introduced during the last ten years have tended further to lessen employment in that direction. TO those misguided people who imagine that the farmers are looking out for labourers, and that the millennium is going to come by training men to go on the land in this country, I would point out that the Board of Trade Gazette in a recent number, referring to agricultural labour, says, there was but little or no interruption Of agricultural employment. The demand for extra labour was fairly good, but it was generally fully met by the Supply. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
