Good weather wasespecially important yesterday, since the parade ground was busy with cameramen from• the National Film Board. Throughout the past few days the Film Board has been taking sequences for a documentary film to be entitled, "The Life of a Flight Cadet". This film will be Used both .for recruiting and for indoctrination purposes. Director •of the film is T. E.

He previously directed the successful NFB-RCAF combined film production, "Ground Crew." "The Life of a Flight Cadet" is ''the latest in a series of excellent films on the Canadian . Armed Services, which have been produc- ed by. the National Film Board. Reviewing Officer for, these 'special, ceremonies was Air Com- modore W. W.

Four summercamps were ,:held in all, each being of two weeks duration. During their .stay at camp the cadets received , instruction in various phases of Air Force life, including leadership, drill, arma- ment, rifle `firing, and water saf- ety. The boys also had he op- portunity to 'visit the RCAF's'No. 1 Radar . and Communications School as well as RCAF Station Centralia. The camps, however, were not "all work and no play" for the young men. A great amount' of their time was devoted tb sports and rest periods. The cadets had many facilities open to them dur- ing •their leizure hours,:. They had their" own canteen,, television set, and hobby shop as well as the use of Station Clinton's bowling alleys; and miniature golf course. For, most of the cadets the high- light of the camp was their air familiarization, flights in RCAF "Expeditor" aircraft. Prior to take -off the boys were briefed and given maps of the ,area over which they would fly. Once airborne they were expected to do some ground to air navigation with these maps. Officer Command,ng. the sum- mer camps was Wing Commander C. E. Burns, Mimico with Flight Lieutenant S. J. Cairns, Trenton and Toronto, as chief instructor. Flight Lieutenants J. H. Moss and B. Sinyard were the Roman Cath- olic and Protestant chaplains re spectively. The camps were made possible through the kindness of Group Captain H. C. Ashdown, MBE, CD, Commanding Officer of RCAF Station Clinton. ,r a Immigration needed: In the face of Canada's post-war economic ex- pansion, a national immigration policy has become a problem.

W. Philip and Drum. Major Sgt. H. L, Fretts, (RCAF Photo) Seed Wheat Prices Suggested By Soil and Crop Men The Seed Marketing and Pub- licity Committee of the Ontario Soil and Crop Improvement As- sociation at a recent meeting re- commended the following mini- mum retail prices of seed Wheat and Rye— Winter Wheat—No, 1 seed grown from Registered seed $1.80; Registered No. 1, $2.00; Registered No. 1 Genesee, $2.15 and No, 1 Rye X1.40, These are recommended re- tail per' bushel` prices f:o.b. farm or local shipping point, bags included and treated. These prices are somewhat low- er than last year and should pro- vide ample encouragement for all growers requiring seed. to purch- ase the registered grades which are sealed and tagged by Plant Products inspectors. Purchasers are thus assured of the variety, high standard of quality, and ger- mination. No Dwarf Bunt is allowed in the registered grade's and this year all wheat for registration is doub- ly checked first by field inspection and again by microscopic inspec- tion of the grain to assure free- dom of Dwarf Bunt in the regist- ered grades. The quality of Ontario seed wheat is excellent this year. The' newer varieties of Winter Wheat are resistant to Loose Smut but are not resistant to Stinking Smut or Bunt. Seed treatment will, however, control this Smut and all seed wheat should be treated. For the few cents per acre more that the registered grades cost, it is good assurance to use only the highest grades which in most cases are sold treated so that there is no trouble or cost in treating. The new Genesee variety, intro- duced last year in quantify, is a high yielding variety although slightly weaker in the straw taan Dawbul or Cornell 595: Seed sup- plies of this variety are adequate this year at only a small advance. over. other varieties. Rye is becoming more popular as a pasture and green manure crop. Rye provides excellent past- ure in the late fall and early spring and is used extensively as a plow -down crop in preparation for tobacco,' potatoes and other. cash crops.
