Description: The New Year's issue begins with an address from the Federal Minister of Agriculture. Agricultural articles pertain to the profitability of the United Farmers' Co-operative Company, farming in Germany, and how horticultural science differs from agriculture. Printed in this issue are the second prize-winning short story and poem. In addition, there are travel diaries of a trip to Scotland to see Shorthorn cattle, a canoe trip on the Atikokan River, and livestock judging in Chicago. An update on the changes on campus include the building of Mills Hall. The editorial extols the alumni to contribute to the Memorial Fund for the building of War Memorial Hall. While an alumnus provides another wartime biographical sketch titled "Apres la Guerre" that was also featured in the Guelph Mercury. The Macdonald Institute column provides alumnae news. The Alumni column contains reports from the reunion banquets, and alumni updates.
