Unlicensed Grain Varieties Warned By Agriculture Minister
Honorable C L Shuttleworth warns that several cereals and flax varieties from U S seed houses are sold at high prices without Canadian licensing. Some offerings, like a Duruin variety, may never be licensed due to poor quality. Contracts promising seed in 1957 are often options to buy with no firm commitment. Farmers should verify license status and company commitment, consulting agricultural officials to avoid risks. The department tests new varieties through Plant Breeding Stations and universities, licensing superior ones and publicizing them when ready to protect farmers and ensure access to best crops.

MFAC Board Endorses MFAC MFU Amalgamation
The MFAC District Board in Dauphin on December 22 endorsed the MFAC MFA Amalgamation Agreements. It reasoned that structural changes are needed due to urban cooperatives, disappearance of agricultural locals, and the rise of commercial cooperatives. Amalgamation would unite farmers under a single membership organization with local and district control, though MFA would persist.
