Scope and content
The item is a documentary film in two reels. Tobacco growing, curing and processing at the Totem Plantation, Sumas Prairie, BC. "Identical to TOBACCO GROWING IN BRITISH COLUMBIA, except that the opening shots present a picture of the McKercher Company executives and give a plug for the company. Nowhere on this print is the British Columbia Dept. of Agriculture mentioned, although the government may have produced the film. Perhaps McKercher's put up the money, or some of it." (Colin Browne)
