Scotland's farms contribute cattle for milking and for meat; her pastures now being ploughed yield more oats and wheat; her industries— iron, steel, coal, lumber are making up for reduced imports; the Clyde, second port of the Commonwealth, is more than ever important, especially for shipbuilding. Altho thousands of land girls are working, the shepherd and his dog still tend the sheep, whose wool is needed for khaki cloth for Scottish soldiers, while on the minesweepers and trawlers Scottish sailors do their wartime jobs. In conclusion, there are short speeches in local dialects by a fisherman, a coal miner, steel worker, housewife and shepherd CPC 16 Ind 16-$2.50 TexVE 16 SCOTLAND—THE BONNIE.
