Formations. units of personnel placed on active service or con- tinuous service of any kind are called "active"'formati0ns. units or personnel of the Canadian army. All other formations. units or per- sonnel are called “reservc" for- mations, units or personnel. _ Thus, it was said at the depart- ment today. the new designation puts an end to the term “Canadian Active Service Force." used since the start of the present war to de- signate the forces fully employed on military duties or on active sci-vice, and the term “Non-Per- .manent, Active Militia." used for years to designate the troops who spend part of their time on mili- tary duties while carrying on with civilian occupations. _ In peacetime. hitherto. Canada's military forces were divided into the permanent active militia. and the non-permanent active militia. The former were full-time soldiers.

Associate Director of dairy products in the Dominion Agriculture Department gave this word to a meeting of AEYRYUWJYQ representatives of British Columbia, Ontario. Quebec, Nova Scotln, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Is- land who ended a two-day confer- ence today. The Associate director estimated that to meet domestic and British demand an extra 640,000,000 pounds of milk will have to be produced in 194i. He suggested the export situation could be facilitated by de- creased consumption of cheese in Canada where 40,000,000 pounds is consumed unnuall . Dr. G. S. Archi aid, director of Dominion Experimental Farms. told the nteetin-g the output of milk of the 3.800.000 dairy cows in Can- ada must. be stepped up or the num- be: of cows must be increased. The best and cheapest way. he said. was to advance milk production which could be done if farmers gave mow attention to pasture improvement. The conference was called to con- sider probiems arising from the agriculture industry out of new Canadian agreements to supply pro- duce to the British food ministry. Man. who man would be.
