Army Quartermasters Take
Off Hats to English Farm
ers for Cooperation
By Henry Tostl Hustell
United Press Staff Correspondent
Somewhere In England (U.R)
Even Nature is being harnessed
to the cause of Anglo-American
understanding, by the U. S.
army authorities here.
The agricultural section of the
office of the chief quartermaster
comprised of a team of experts
Is directing the production of
fresh vegetables for army con
sumption in co-operation with
the British under the direction
of Maj. Gen. Robert M. Little
John, chief quartermaster.
One of the members of the
team is Sgt. John W. Freeman

Swltchtd From Dairying
"We work in close co-opera
tion with the British," he told
the United Press. "In doing so
I have learned a good deal about
their ways. Let me say for a
start that they have done one
helluva good lob on food pro-
diction. Yes, sir, I take off my
hat to them for that.
"Their work has been all the
more remarkable because in
many cases they have had to
demonstrate and actually teach
some of their farmers how to
plow with our tractors. The
farmers here as far as I have
been able to ascertain, were
mainly in the dairy or poultry
end of the game. Most of their
land was in grass, So they have
had to learn a whole lot of
technical things in order to
switch over to wholesale pro
duction of food, as they have
done, Believe me they sure
have done a swell job,"
Asked if he found farming
very different In Britain as
compared with the States, Free
man sum mm ne mougni me j
main difference were due to
climatic conditions, the nature
of the soil, and the system of
ownership or tenantship of the
land.
, "They seem to have about the
same rainfall here as in the
U.S.," he said. "At any rate the
total annual rainfall in Britain
Is comparable to that of our
eastern states. But the differ
ence here Is that fall is gradual.
They don't get the terrific falls
that we get In many parts of the
states.
Cultivate Hills
Then there is the texture of
the soil itself. Here their soil
seems to absorb a good deal
more moisture than our soil at
home. As a result of this, they
are able to practice up-and-
down-mil cultivation success
fully. Why If we did that in the
states, almost every row would
become a gully in no time. For
this reason, maybe, they don't
have to pay so much attention
here to the soil conservation as
Americans do." '
The fact that In Britain, farm
ers were often tenants of a num
ber of different landowners, he
explained, made It more diffi
cult for a tenant-farmer to farm
his variously owned lands eco
nomically with modern appli
ances. "You see you need large
fields close together to operate
modern agricultural machinery
economically. And because their
fields here are often separated
by hedges Indicating the differ
ent ownership of the land, It is
often Impractical or uneconomic
for them to use mechanized
equipment."
These obviously, he explained

"But although conditions are
different here from In the
states", said Freeman, "we get
on fine together. I think an
old Negro had the co-operation
situation well summarized in
this sentence: 'In order to do
right you got to have a do-right
mind.' Well the fact is, we all
have got that 'do-right mind'
here. And it is working out fine.
If we use the same mind to co

farmers will be much better off
than ever before."
