Date 1915
Description Onion-whittling by Heath Robinson

More underhand ideas from the Germans to defeat their British foe imagined by William Heath Robinson cartoon. The Germans utilise biological weapons; row of onions. The relentless scraping reduces the British line to tears. Thankfully, hankies are on hand to counter this devilish new tactic.
