Atlanta, July.—The value of wom- an’a work in country life, farming ia one of ther evolutions of the war, at is shown by data sent to Dr. An drew M. Soule, federal food adminia r trator. A good many people who have been vaguely aware of the serv ice of the English women in war work and have heard of the Woman’s Land Army, atill havcl ittie definite know ledge of what the member* of this organization are actually accomplish- ing. But a letter from an American now in London give* some interesting detail* He writes “At many recent recruiting meet ings of the Woman’s Land Army val uable testimony to then sefutness of women’s tabor on the farm has been offered by agriculturists who have employed such labor. A case in point occurred at one of the Oxford Street meetings in London the other day when a farmer in thee rowd was say ing such appreciative things about the Land Army that he was invited to address the meeting. He willingly did so, and among other things said ha had a barrister’s daugter, a doctor’s daughter and a profeminnsl singer, besides a number of other women of various classes working for him. It did not matter to what class tey be longed, e said, tey had ail done well. So well, in fact, he declared jocularly that heh ad made 6 pounds more prof it on each pig this year than ever be fore. Calves elicate from birth had also been saved by thee aptble and careful handling of the women. On his farm four women and a boy had ploughed 67 acres of land most satis factorily. “During the past week 20 new prac ticc farms have been sanctioned in connection with the Women’s Land Army, making provisions for the training of between 70 and 80 re cruits. At the training center at Drayton St, Leonards, the women are given special facilities for acquiring a good all-round knowledge of work with horses. There are 20 horses on the farm and they are! ooked after entirely by women, who went through the first course at the centre two months ago, is now acting aa carter for thef armor who attends the centre and is doing excellently. Among her other charges are four mules. “Actively recruiting for the Land Army is going on all over the country and there is no thousands of trained women will be placed at the disposal of the harvest through this tion. In mostd istricts the prejudice against the employment women has disappeared under stress of circumstance and as a suit of actual experience in the ployment of women.” PEAS FOR A quantity of No. 1 for sale.
