Description

'A Farm his Future' is an item from The Daily News. The item tells readers that Sister Kate's Children's Home in Queen's Park is raising funds to buy land for a 'farm school' so that boys from the Home could be 'trained in farm work' so that they 'would be capable of working later on farms and stations'. Sister Kate was hoping to raise £2,500 to buy the land and equip the farm. The item includes a picture of one of the boys from Sister Kate's home, which would have been included to 'personalise' the article and help people to imagine the type of child their donation would help.
