The fonds consists of subject files, financial records, photographs and bound volumes of The Rural Co-operator, 1936-1966, and Farm and Country, 1966-1976. The microfilm reel includes issues of The Farmer's Sun, 1928, and The Rural Spectator 1944-1949.
The series consists of letters, petitions, reports, returns and schedules, certificates, accounts, warrants, legal opinions, instructions and regulations, proclamations and other documents received by the Civil Secretary of Upper Canada, 1791-1841, together with copies of some documents of 1766-1809. These were made for reference purposes, form a very miscellaneous series known as the Upper Canada Sundries. This arises from the extensive range of duties performed by the Civil Secretary, and from the custom of plurality, whereby an individual might hold several offices but custom and practice did not give rise to separate record-keeping systems for each office. The post-1841 correspondence received in RG 7, G 20 reflects the narrowing of responsibilities in the Civil Secretary's office in that period. .
The fonds consists of planning files, minutes, correspondence, memoranda for the 1973 conference; final report of the 1973 conference prepared by the Conference Co-ordinator, Mrs. Olive T. Higdon; kit given to delegates at registration of the 1973 conference. Also includes programmes, correspondence, notes and memoranda for the 1991 Learned Societies Conference at Queen's University.
