W. S. Mansfield
A hundred and one jobs call for the farmer's attention now winter is upon him-the leaking roof, the lane that is water-logged, gaps in the fences, the gate that has become unhinged. Today W. S. Mansfield , manager of the Cambridge University Farm, is bringing his foreman to the microphone, and they will discuss the organisation of labour and in particular a major job that is seasonal just now-hedging and ditching. Farmers all over the country should be interested in this discussion between two practical men who have confronting them the jobs they are going to talk about.

With tonight's broadcast the second edition of this popular series comes to an end. Listeners will remember that the first edition was given last year. A feature of the series has been the invitation to listeners to choose the songs they like best. At the end of each broadcast a medley of songs from the previous broadcast has been played and also the three gaining the largest number of votes. This open invitation has resulted in enormous correspondence, and the organiser of the series, Bruce Sievier, and the producer, Bryan Michie, have had their hands full week by week. An example is shown on this week's Letter Page.

(Section E)
Led by Laurance Turner
Conducted by Clarence Raybould
Harold Williams (baritone) Bizet's Djamileh was produced in Paris in 1872. The libretto is based on the poem ' Namouna ' by Musset. The scene is laid in Cairo of the Middle Ages. Djamileh, the heroine, a beautiful slave, is about to be sold by the Turkish nobleman who is her master, and who is tired of her. She is, however, sincerely attached to him, and, by the aid of his secretary, carries out a little plot. In disguise, she mingles with other slaves about to be sold to her master and dances so seductively that he immediately buys her. She then doffs her disguise, and confesses that the stratagem was prompted by her love of him and is restored to her old place in his affections.
