Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Intensive Farming
The present movement, back to the land, will to a limited extent delay the time when the problem of supply and demand will become acute, but come it surely will in this country as it has in the Orient. While there is a decided movement landward our statistics of population clearly Show the tremendous increase in town and city population as compared with that of the rural community. If this ratio is main tained the time when demand will outrun sup ply will be greatly hastened. But the problems of supplying bread and meat are not the only problems in feeding a nation. Grains and meats, under present conditions, can be trans ported great distances and kept to serve the needs of months and even years.
