Produce Farming Lecture
Men stand around or sit on the steps of a stone building to listen as A.E. Chamberlain delivers a lesson on the benefits of vegetable production. Chamberlain uses a pointer to direct attention toward a visual aid, and a small pile of canned goods sits at his feet. |

The original typewritten caption reads, in part: "Grown people are like children, have to be shown an object lesson, before they will be convinced, so A.E. Chamberlain borrowed a number of cans of vegetables packed in foreign states from a store keeper at Jasper, to show his audience that they were paying a fancy price for tin cans with nice labels, when they could raise better fresh vegetables at home for one-quarter the cost." This photograph was taken for International Harvester's Agricultural Extension Department. Folder: Campaigns |
