Recent discoveries of vitamines, or accessory factors of diet, merely confirm this opinion when they demonstrate the richness of wheat not only in all the ingredients hitherto recognised as necessary for our support, but also in these newly-identified factors. Wheat then is the food we should grow, and increased food production really resolves itself into growing more wheat. Now more wheat can be grown in two ways by increasing the area under that crop or by increasing the yield per acre. The Corn Production A ct will increase the wheat area.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue.
