cally all the profits, and by making the natives bear prac- tically all the losses. It could never have obtained its surplus if it had paid the natives a "living wage." The system of piece-wage identified the native with the success or failure of the crop that he cultivate...d, and all depended with him whether the seed fell on good ground or bad.
Some fell on good ground and prospered. In Pasoeroean the yields were so large that the cultivator could use the government pay to hire laborers, and after paj'ing them fair wages he had a profit left for himself. That, how- ever, is no vindication of the system. The system re- quired that the cultures should be extended over land of average fertility, and on such land the yields could never in the long run pay government expenses and govern- ment profit and leave enough over to maintain all the laborers in a proper condition of efficiency.
