TRAINING TOWN BOYS FOR FARM

A scheme to select and train 2,400 town boys a year for färm work has been started by the Ministry of Agriculture.

Agricultural education authori- ties will be encouraged to pro- |vide stout boots and other equip- ment at a cost not exceeding £2 per boy.

The boys will be trained as near their homes as possible. but fares from home to the farm will be paid.

The scheme is limited to those from the elementary schools who come within the choice of em- ployment machinery of the Min- istry of Labour.

The boys will be trained for twelve weeks on selected farms. During that time the bay will receive free board and lodgings and 2s. 6d. per week pocket

money.

The farmer would be respon- sible for the board and lodging of the boy..

For this purpose the farmer would be entitled to 12s. per week in the first four weeks, 8s. in the second, 4s. in the third. The farmer would also be ex- pected to pay both employer's and employee's contributions, for
