CONCLUSION 



[n conclusion the demand for home-grown iood- 

 stuffs makes ; ' The Farmer's Outlook " a more 

 promising one than for many years past. The 

 Agricultural Industry should bring home to the 

 industrial population that their interests as well 

 as the well-being of all rural workers lies in the 

 Development of British Agriculture. If Public 

 Opinion in the United States, 1 which is still able 

 to send us foodstuffs in considerable quantities, 

 is seriously concerned as to the future of food 

 supplies, surely it is time that we were up and 

 doing. Our countryside can still boast sturdy rural 

 workers of all classes. Once convinced that the 

 period of apathy and neglect has passed away a 

 new feeling of confidence and security will arise, 

 resulting in a largely increased supply of food- 

 stuffs for the Nation. 



1 "The Rural Life Problem of the United States, 1 ' by 

 Sir Horace Plunkett, should be widely read. The 1k>ok 

 covers a far wider field than the title suL'rests.
