Thirty Years of Successful Farming in Western Canada
Samuel Larcombe of Birtle Manitoba, a premier agriculturist, celebrated his seventieth birthday after thirty years of farming with over 2900 prizes including the 1917 World Wheat Championship at Peoria and best wheat exhibits at the 1918 World's Soil Products show in Kansas. Born in Devon, he immigrated to Winnipeg in 1889, then settled on a farm he later bought, shifting to vegetables and roots and earning widespread international recognition for Canadian farming.
