He smiles broadly at the camera with a ruddy nose - presumably he is drunk or an alcoholic. Intertitle reads: “Yus!

Instead of this....“ M/S of a group of hop pickers - presumably a family, mother cuts bread, father eats something out of a tin and children sit around them also eating.

C/U of the conveyor belt which transports the hops. “...and this, for a giant machine has just arrived in England that does the work of 600 men
