The Agricultural Supplies Board answers the question through its special War- time Pamphlet No. 29 "Good seed of Cereals and its Significance", To get a start with good seed, it is necessary to buy only a few bushels of Register- ed or Certified seed, These grades of seed are derived from crops inpsected in the field and for which seed cer- tificates are issued finally by the Plant Products Division, Dominion Depart- ment of Agriculture. A variety is ac- cepted for registration only after it has been carefully compared with the other varieties and found to be des- erving of a place in some part of the Dominion. Registration or certification of seed implies that the crop from which it has been derived must have keen in- spected in the field and found to have the required degree of purity of var- iety and kind, It must also be free from weeds and seed-borne diseases within certain limits, Further, before the seed can be sold as registered or certified it must be subjected to a purity and germination test, and, if up to a certain specified standard, is tagged and sealed in accordance with . the regulations prescribed under the Seeds Act. Good seed is healthy seed but the wide -variety of diseases which may be carried by seed is not always real- ized. Smuts and certain rots of cer- eals may all be disseminated by means of seed. The planting of infected seed practically ensures the perpetuation of the disease. The certification or reg- istration of Registered or Certified seed implies that the seed is free from weeds and seed-borne diseases within certain limits.

J. B, Davison, .Chairman of Port Hope High School Settlement "in the Brackenbury - Davison slandet' action at cobourg was reached late Thursday afternoon when the litigants' counsel got to- gether and reached agreement after a two-hour conference. The plaintiff, George Brackenbury, former principal of Port Hope High School, sued W, J, B. Davison, chair- man of the Port Hope High School Board of 1942, for $20,000 damages, alleging that Davison had made slanderous statements about him dur, ing an interview with two Teachers' Federation representatives who had come to Port Hope to inquire into the reasons for the board's demand for Brackenbury's resignation, The alleged defamatory statements were that Br'ackenbury had been in- discreet with the bottle at the golf club, had used profane language to his sons at the golf club, and a suggestion that his private life had not been what it should have been. The terms of the settlement were that each should pay his own costs, and the settlement included the follow- ing statement signed by Davison: "If any statement made by me is detrimental to the moral character of, Mr. Brackenbury or reflects on his capacity as a principal, I unreservedly declare them to be not so intended." Mr. Justice MacKay commended the litigants for their decision to come to a settlement. *Both occupied positions of importance to the community' and to the rising generation, and their de- cision to settle the matter at that stage of the trial was a favorable indication of their calibre, said His Lordship.
