' Agriculture in War-Time '
J. A. Scott Watson
In spite of our large imports of food, the home farmer still plays an essential part in the feeding of the nation. In time of peace the most important service of the home farmer is to produce the ' protective ' or '.health ' foods-fresh milk, potatoes, and fresh vegetables, eggs, and fruit. In time of war the farmer would have to increase, his output of bare necessities and would have to make himself less dependent upon imported raw materials.
This evening
Professor Scott Watson will discuss the possibility of an. agricultural policy which would make the most use of our land in time of peace, and would prepare for the emergency of war.
