Three hundred selected boys between fifteen and seventeen years of age will be granted free passage to Vimy Ridge Farm, near Quelph, Ontario, where they will be given training in Canadian methods of farming. After this they will be placed with suitable farmers, and will be paid the usual boys wages (about £2 per month with board and lodging). The quota for Wales is small, and all desiring further information should apply at once to Capt. William GRIFFITHS, Canadian Government Emigration Agent, High-street, Bangor. John Patrick
