Quote:
"'Spring on the Farm' stands out among the four as a simple, broadly treated film. The boldest device used in it is the hesitant voice of a little girl making the running commentary in occasional, prim, copy-book phrases. This will be laughed at in the picture palaces, but it is unusual rather than ridiculous. Some of the pictures of ploughland and animals are so exquisite that one cannot imagine an audience to whom the film would not 'get over.'"
