With farm helpers few and far be
tween, Ontario farmers are in desper
ate need of immediate aid to- salvage
the hay crop, states A. Maclaren, Dir
ector, ' Farm Service Force, Ontario
Department of Labour.
Canada is committed to large quan
tities of food for Great Britain - 112,-
000,000 pounds of cheese for 1941 and
millions of pounds of bacon as well as
vast quantities of powdered milk. This
means that every wisp of hay must be
placed in barns in good condition.
This cannot be done with the pitiful
amount of man power at present av
ailable on farms and calls for
action on the part of men who
spare at least one day a week
farm in the vicinity of his city,
or village/
Already thousands of High School
boys have been placed with farmers
in various parts of the Province, and
the farmers are so pleased with the
magnificent response of Youth and the
efficiency Shown that the Farm Serv
ice Force has been asked to supply an
.additional 500 boys.
By enlisting for Farm Service, On
tario Youth is letting Prime Minister
Churchill know that “Here’s the Food
to Finish the Job.”1 Adults who are
not engaged in essential war industry
should follow the example set by
youth and heed the farmers* appeal by
volunteering to work one day a week
to help garner the limited hay crop.
The 6,000 Farm Service Force boys
and girls who are doing such yeoman
service have made a hit with their cm-
ployers and farmers who originally
were not sold on the idea are now
clamouring for them, Mr. Maclaren
has applications from 500 farmers that
have not been filled. Adults as well
as Collegiate boys and girls, who can
step into ’this agricultural breach,
should write at once to the Farm Ser
vice Force, Department of Labour,
Parliament Buildings, Toronto. Your
help will aid in Ontario going over the
agricultural top in providing" Britain
with the food, necessary to help Win
ston Churchill finish the job. They al
so serve who feed theEmpire.

CURRANT JAM
IS VERSATILE
By Katharine Baker
With rising prices and the need to
supply our less fortunate friends
across the Atlantic with all the food
we cap, economy has become the key
note of our existence. It is only prac
tical for us to make the most of what
we have at home. No longer do we
regard fresh fruits as just something
to be eaten in season and forgotten
about. We look a little farther ahead
than rushing to the store for a jar of
jam when the. need arises. We’ve
learned to count our'blessings and fill
up every last empty jar about the
place, not only for home use, but to
send abroad and to the boys in the
forces.
Don’t overlook the colourful curr
ants with their tangy flavour and var
ied uses for tarts, decorating puddings
or eaten with toast at breakfast
start your day right.
