match plowing standards: Every am-
bitious young farmer has -longed to
visit the Old Land with little hope of
attaining that goal. Nowhe is pre-
sented with an opportunity which will
be grasped by hundreds of young
plowmen, with, a consequent increase
in entries at. local " matcbe' as, well
as at the : big match ' in "Huron County.
Those who are winners' in these class-
es and are privileged to make the
trip "will not only have an enjoyable
experience; but will be able to com-
pare , British and 'Canadian -agricul-
tural methods, and the benefit of.their
observations will be' disseminated to
the advantage of Canadian agrieul-
ture." '

ent type of chemical Weed killer. The

al three acres is being seeded in

Registration
Cards Dropped
Little slips of -paper headed "Na-
tional Registration Regulations," which,
Canadians have carried in their
pockets since 1940, on lahursday last
lost their significance.
Labor Minister Mitchell announced
in the Commons that the registration
was being discontinued, as from that
day.' Thus Canadians no longer are
required to oarry their registration
certificates.
Wlien the registration was taken
six' years. ago, 7,862,920 Canadians fill-
ed forms which provided :as picture of
the country's manpower resources.
Since then 8,000,000 changes liave
been recorded. A staff has been kept
busy noting changes of address, re-
moving cards of persons who 'have
died and adding cards for Canadians
w'ho reached the age of 16.
The Labor Department estimates
included an item of $324,000 to cover
this work for a year, but now it will
be discontinued.
Apart from the official uses mad
of the registration the slips were
commonly used for identification pur-
poses.
With abolition of the registration
regulations went tie action against
persons who have violated them, Mr.
Mitchell announced no further actions
would be launched and those already
started would be dropped under both
the registration regulationss and mob-
ilization regulations.
The registration was used primar-
ily as the basis of the military Gall-
up Out of a total of 1,859,811 men
called,, only 6,593 had not been locat-
ed. Elittinating those who had died
left the country, or who were regis-
tered under more' than one naive, it
was estimated there were only 1,563
