ENGLISH WOMEN
WORKING IN FIELBS
LAND ARMY DOING THEIR PART
IN HELPING TO WIN THE
WAR.
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.”
