“Any of the land girls I have heard of so far (says a writer in the Birmingham Post) who have tried to put the statement that they are ‘wanted elsewhere’ to the proof have found themselves surrounded by ‘buts’ and ‘ifs.’ They begin to wonder whether there really is a chance anywhere for women who want outdoor work and are young enough to hope that work may include a little of the joy of appreciation When one goes carefully through the collected reports of the women delegates sent overseas to investigate, one comes back to the fact that the women with small capital always have a chance, provided, of course, they will put strenuous work, as well as capital, into their enterprise. In New Zealand ■women with less than £250 to £3OO are encouraged to take up dairying, fruit-farming, and poultry-keeping. As ‘hands’ with capital, women who emigrate should know what they are faring. They will have to combine housework with farm work, and they will have to work for all they are worth.”
