Mr. Bromfield lives on a farm which has been developed from 600 acres made up of five bad- ly ,rundown, eroded and inefficieat ly operated farms, into one success- ful establishment of 1,000 acres. Malabar Farm, 'which is the name of his Ohio homestead, is operated most sUecessfnlly on a co-operative basis. Workers on the farm share in profits and enjoy an abundance of vegetables, meat and other farm products. And Me 30 -room home is the mecca Cor displaced ,persons as well as .agricultural experts from all parts of the world. "The valley in which Malabar farm is situated, was' a paradise for the Indians 45 years ago," he says 3n his book, "Malabar Farm." He left the valley when he was 15 and did not returh for 25 years. He found • conditions bad. Mill dams had been carried away by flood& Pools had vanished, silted up with mud. The soil had failed miser- ably and many farmers had moved out. • In his books, "Pleasant Valley" and "Malabar Farm," Mr. Bromfield outlines a method of farming which at first was regarded with suspi- cion and criticism by many agri- culturists of bath ,Canada and the United States. Yet these methods have been carried out with great success en his 1.000 -acre farm for over nine years. Soil preservation and maintenance have been the basis of his plan. • Today it is the outstanding showplace of agricul- ture. He is a firm believer in the axiom that "production . and efficiency makes rich farmers just As it does rich industrialists." And he has demonstrated that his ideas are sound. Today he op- erates his large farm on a stream- lined basis and he can show visi- tors acres and acres of reclaimed land which had been abandoned by former owners as worthless. • Still a young man --he was born in 'December, 1896, He went o college to study agriculture. turned to writing and •eventually graduated from Columbia's school' of -Journalism. He spent several years in the army, beginning as an ambulance driver for the, French, later ,becoming special liaison offi- cer between. the French and Brit- ish. • Returning to the United States he joined the staff of the New York City -News and later the As- sociated Press- He, afterwards be- came foreign , editor 'and music critic with "Musical Ame'•ica" and then branched into theatrical pro- duction as assistant to a New York producer. He was also one of the original members of Time Maga- zine staff. During this time he Had been v.riting extensively and one of his novels. "Early Autumn." won the Pulitzer: Prize In 1926. He knows 1'rorn-;cc•tual first-hand contact, what soil erosion means, and .he. is also ;oily a.equainted, by actual experience, wird what soil conservation can accomplish.
