Jerry is in fine health and is finding his new work quite interesting. .As agricultural agent a , large part of his work is in immigration and colonization, This involves the placement of those new Canadians who, wish to farm. Re advised me that there is a good supply of farm help available if couples With or Without families can be accommo- dated, All farm help is exeprienced, Most are highly recommended and many are specialists in some branch of farming. Immigrants of English, Irish, Seetish or. Danish origin are readily available. In the past years the farm popu- lation has resented the regulations requiring New Canadians to locate , on farms for three years, I was to- day informed that this is no longer the case. Only those receiving pas- sage assistance 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.

The Federation agreed to pay mileage of Beef Pro- ducers delegates to their annual meeting in Toronto, The resolutions committee draft- ed a resolution which was approv- ed for consideration of the Ontario Federation: Whereas hydro now requires three consumers to, the, mile in rural areas and Whereas some farmers, due to the type of survey in their town- ships, are more widely separated Therefore be it resolved that Huron County Federation of ,Agri- culture recommend that hydrb re- vert to the former requirement of two consumers to the mile. The directors approved a farm accident survey for Huron, as sug- gested by H. E. Bellman, provided there is no financial obligation. Due to the stress of so many ac- tivities in the county for June it was decided to defer plans 'for the Federation field day and picnic. Crop Report •. [According to D. H.
