Description:

Long years of intense drought, coupled with a disastrous fall in grain prices, forced many Prairie farmers to board up their homes and seek work elsewhere. But the majority remained, hating to leave the land they had broken, often lacking the capital to make a fresh start. To these, the Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Administration, working through engineers and scientists on the experimental farms and stations, restored faith and morale. Conservation of moisture, development of new methods of farming and conversion of submarginal land to other uses all helped to put these derelict farms once again on a working basis. <12mn 29s>

1. Subject description from "The NFB Film Guide : The Productions of the National Film Board of Canada from 1939 to 1989".~2. In "Embattled Shadows" Peter Morris speculates that this film may have been shot in 1934 and its release delayed due to its subject matter. HERITAGE was the working title for the Bureau's 1934 production LEST WE FORGET and the erroneous assumption stems from this.~3. Four related short films were also released by the Bureau. The titles are SOIL DRIFTING CONTROL IN THE PRAIRIE PROVINCES; WATER DEVELOPMENT FOR PRAIRIE FARMS; TREE PLANTING IN THE PRAIRIE PROVINCES; and COMMUNITY PASTURES FOR BETTER LAND UTILIZATION.~4. J. Booth Scott died in 1969.~5. Crown material over 50 years - copyright expired.
