All manner of operations are in progress. Three tractor -drawn scrap - ere and two graders were at work on the north -west -south-west runway' and have the Preliminary work areae ly' completed. Drainage worry is going on apace and the contractors state that paving will follow immediately. In other words when one runway is graded it will be paved. All crops on the airport property have now been cut and the wheat le being threshed. Barns and houses are being vacated preparatory to demolition. One building, however, the new steel barn, on the Stevenson property, is to be left standing and is to be used as an eating -place for the large number of men that will eventually be employed. A restaurant is to be set up in the barn. B. W. Schultz, of Johntson Broth- ers, Brantford, which company is to erect the big hangars, is in Goderich now and states that his company's work will be in progress within a week. It was not stated what other, if any, of the thirty-two buildings to be erected his firm would undertake. It is understood that Hill, Clarke & Francis, Limited, of New Liskeard, have the general building contract, Johnston Bros. have just finished construction work at the Gremlin el- ementary training airport near Lond- on. Hugh Lehman, superintendent otf the Warren Bituminous Paving Co., told us that -operations at Port Albert have been delayed about two weeks to allow farmers to get their crops off, but that theme was nothing now to stop the work from gong full speed ahead. A road into the airport prop- erty from the 4th concession has been graded and gravelled. The 4th con- cession road itself has been graded right to the fences so as to permit two lines of traffic each way, to and from the gravel pits, the light trucks taking to the sides of the road when necessary, the loaded trucks travel- ling the road proper. Big stocks of crushed gravel already are at the pits and everything is being geared so that there will be no hold-up when operations begin. This week a telephone pole line was built to the newly -erected contract- or's buildng on the Stevenson farm, which is in the building area. It is reported that an emergency landing field is to be established north of Antberley, in the Kincardine area.. There have been rumors, hut no of- ficial announcement has been made, as to the successful tenders for the building construction at Sky Harb- our -airport. With the landing field completely graded, work there has been confined to grubbing the clear- ances pending receipt of final intrus- ions as to the actual area the airport is to occupy. Revised plans call for an east -west runway, and this would mean the inclusion of a large area of Menesetung Park, cottages and trees being removed. A representat- ive of the land purchasing department is there this week but it is not known what his instructions are. He also visited Port Albert, where also there are some property tangles to be straightened out. The official opening of Sky Har- bour airport is fixed for October 14th, In the meantime it is proposed to forst a Civil Flying Club to take charge of the operation of the airport as is the case with all elementary flying schools.

Shipley Will Pay to Check Canning Program The canning season is well on its way with all the tempting array of. foods that can be stored away for winter use. In home canning there are four principal steps, each of which is im- portant in obtaining best results. First, choice of product—no amount of care will make a good canned pro- duct unless the fruit or vegetable is fresh and in good condition. Next, preparation and packing are included, Then processing — sufficient heat must be attained to destroy all spoil- age organisms. Fourth—most im- portant of all is air -tight sealing so that no further organisms may en- ter to cause spoilage. At one time all fruits were cooked in open kettles with large quantities of sugar to make thick, rich pre- serves. Vegetables were kept in strong brine with or without cooking, These methods are excellent in some cases, but for regular use canning in; glass jars or tins is the most satis- factory. There are some joints that should be checked to make sure that methods are up-to-date. Be sure that the rubbers fit the type of jar. The wide rubbers are for spring top jars; narrow rubbers fit screw top jars. Use pint jars for vegetables. They are easier to sterilize. Do not shorten the time of sterili- zation. Vegetables contain little aeid and, therfore, require long steriliza- tion to assure their keeping. If a hot water bath is used, keep the jars covered with water to two inches over the tap. Keep the water boiling. Count the time of sterilization from the time the water begins to boil. Remove the jars at the end of the required period. Insufficiently pro- cessed foods cultivate spoilage and are sometimes poisonous, more often Iere unpalatable. Never take a chance Too long cooking affects flavour and colour and snakes the product too soft. Seal jars tightly at once. Never open after sterilization. If the rules are observed the can- ning of these products in the home is simply and successfully carried out, and nothing is more satisfactory to a housewife than a store cupboard fill- ed with a variety of home -canned; fruits and vegetables.
