Famine in Finland Worsens as Grain Crops Fail
Harrowing reports from Finland describe widespread famine as crops collapse in 1902. An estimated 400,000 to 500,000 people face starvation before winter, with bread made from rye and barley as the only sustenance. Government aid will aid some but cannot end the crisis. The continent’s worst harvest in fifty years follows a border crop failure, with peas, oats, and other staples failing across the land.
