Excerpt from The State as Farmer: Or the Future of Agriculture in England
The result of the great war upon England as a food-producing area has been remarkable in its insignificance. Farming has caused a feeling of irritation rather than anxiety, and attention has been directed to labour much more than to volume of supply. Efforts have been made to apply more female labour to agriculture; and attempts, much less legitimate, to divert boys from school to the fields have been by some vociferously applauded and by others denounced. The really important question of the national food supply as affected by our home products has been almost ignored by Cabinet, Parliament, and newspaper alike.
