NewfoundLanders Being

Recruited

By J, LINCOLN DEWAR

The attention of potate grow- ers is directed to advertise- ments appearing in the press outlining the terms and condi- tions under which the manpow- er center’ is endeavouring ‘t'n make labour available. It is important that those interested eontact the Manpower Centers in either Charlottetown or Sum- merside and make their require- ments known.

Due to better employment op- portunities in the Maritime Pro- vinces the normal-sources of sea- sonal help are beginning to dry ap. For this year it is hoped toe obtain some assistance in New- foundland, . transpertation — will. be provided {o this prevince and returnalsa, provided the wark- er has. stayed on the job LABOUR DAY

If labour isto be thought’ o f in terms of its physical aspects, | then Labour Day produces the rather curious situation asa ho- liday-in -which-the~peeple-w:t-o labour pay little attention to it while workers whe. are involved in the lighter more refined area of production are very particu- lar and very eoncerned about ! this holiday

For 88 Canadians there wall never be another Labour Day, in fact there will never be anoth- er holiday, Possibly these days should no longer be considered | holidays but rather designated as “Highway Massacre Days” We-fee! quite sure that if it could be predicted that a fire was ¢o-

Labour Day produced one of the heaviest and best rains we have had in this province for some two years. It may have

been inconvenient for holiday plans and also for _ harvesting operations but the’ grain. ‘was

What happens to animals

that eat potato tops which have been treated with REGLONE Potato Top Killer?

Nothing.

REGLONE is non-arsenical, so it doesn’t .

attract animals the way sweet-smelling

arsenic does. Should an animal accident-

ally stray into the field, don’t panic—while

eating potato tops may not be good for

it, recommended rates of REGLONE on

the tops will not harm the animal.

Where things wi// happen is in the plants

REGLONE kills leaves fast, stems gradually

— like “natural” maturity. It also. kills

weeds and reduces tuber rot. : This year, don't gamble with deadly arsenic — order sure-acting, safer

REGLONE from your Chipman Dealer.
