Abstract


The advancement of scientific knowledge has been gradually causing the agricultural and industrial classes, who were some years ago putting in 14 to 16 hours work a day, to go in for machinery and implements which are more efficient and less expensive taking into consideration the cost of manual and animal labour of the present day. Now we see even in small villages far from railway stations agri- cultural and industrial works being carried out by the use of machinery and improved implements particularly suited for the works, such as engines, pumps, rice mills, ginning machines etc. It is needless to mention that the machinery and improved implements are gradually replacing, except in certain circumstances where manual and animal labour is necessary, the less efficient and more costly manual and cattle labour and old inefficient implements.
