Abstract

This is the first O. A. C. Review issue published since the beginning of World War 1 and lists the students that have enlisted and gone to the front. The agricultural articles in this issue pertain to Albertan agricultural schools, the activities of an agricultural field agent, and Argentinian wheat production. Other articles address how the 1914 college rugby team is a microcosm of the war experience and a student's summer experience with plant breeders. The editorial comments on the tragedy of war, the idea of forming a C. F. A. Battery at the College, and the O. A. C. Student's Co-operative Association. The horticultural article mentions the climatic adaptation of apples. Campus articles contain news on Canada at war, the Annual Report of the Ontario Agricultural College, and the College's poultry research. Macdonald Institute graduates employed as household science teachers are listed in this issue. Instead of an alumni column there is a column titled "Off to the Front" that provides student updates.
