Farm Missionaries in France
The last American expeditionary force to Europe includes four government experts in preserving fruits and vegetables at home. They will teach French housewives the cold pack and other methods, part of a program to reconstruct rural life. They will train French domestic science teachers who will then demonstrate canning to women, aiming to raise French winter diets. The effort hopes to exchange insights on intensive farming and improve France's stock shortages, with many precautions on animal exports and a shift toward machinery and farming methods postwar.
