Notes


An analysis of how Manitoba’s farm movement was reshaped by early-twentieth-century agricultural reform. Taylor traces the transition from a nineteenth-century, labour-centred agrarian outlook to new identities fostered by the Manitoba Agricultural College, where agricultural economics, home economics, and rural sociology recast farmers as efficiency-minded professionals and community builders.
