Frank Morriss discusses Shen Tsung Han of the Chinese National Agricultural Research Bureau advocating mechanization to overcome small farms and costly labor in China. He notes Canada’s farmers feeding the world during war, then shifts to fall musings on home improvements, seasonal produce, and anticipated shortages. The piece concludes with Canada’s canned meat shipments in 1945, detailing distributions to UNRRA, Greece, Poland, Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, Albania, Britain, and France.
