Summary

Land Girls. The girls of Sweden have come to earth - they’ve joined the Land Army, and here they are undergoing strenuous training near Stockholm. Feeding Deer. The problem of feeding the animals that have been caught in the Carpathian drifts has to be solved once again. The horse and fodder sleigh reaches the top and the rest has to come by hand. Giant Dredger. This new six million pound harbour is now well under way at Capetown. To construct it a large part of the bay is being excavated and huge dredgers are scooping up the silt.
