Abstract

A SCHEME has been prepared by the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries to encourage students at universities and colleges to undertake agricultural work during the summer vacation. Recruiting bureaux have been set up at the principal universities, where full particulars of the scheme and application forms may be obtained. Volunteers will receive at least the appropriate minimum wage-rates fixed by the local agricultural wages committee. This particular scheme is intended for men only, but the Minister also appeals to women students who are willing to spend four weeks or more on the land to join the Women's Land Army Auxiliary Force, particulars of which may be obtained from the local county secretary of the Women's Land Army, or from the headquarters at Balcombe Place, Balcombe, Sussex.
