E. Bellman, provided there is no financial obligation. Due to the stress of so many activities in the county for June, it was decided to defer plans for Federation field day and pic- nic. Montgomery V4it Friday last brought to the County Federation Office a very welcome visitor in the person of G. W. Montgomery, former ag rep and now agricultural agent for the C.N.R. I am glad to re- port .that Jerry is in fine health. and is finding his new work quite interesting. As agricultural agent, a large part of Jerry's work is in im- migration and colonization. This involves the placement of those new Canadians who wish to farm. He advised me that there is ,a good supply of farm help available if couples with or with- out families can be accommo- dated. All farm help is experi- enced. most are highly recom- mended and many are special- ists in some branch of farming. Immigrants of English, Irish, Scotch or Danish origin are read- ily available. In the past years the farm pop- ulation has resented the regula- tions requiring New Canadians to locate on „farms for three years:/1 was today informed that this is no longer the case. Only those receiving passage assist- ance are required to locate on the farm and only for one year. Statistics reveal that 53% of all immigrants of the past year have settled in Toronto. When we consider that immigrants settle in many other cities it is probable that only some 5 to 10% really settle on the farm: These new Canadians are pro- viding an ever-expanding home market for farm produce. Any farmer in need of help should contact G. W.
