Queen' St, United Church, TRI -MOTORED PLANE FOR GOVERNMENT Delivery to the Canadian Govern- ment of the first` tri -motored Ford an transport equipped with pontoons has brought to light another interesting use for the aeroplane, of which the dusting of cotton from the, air was a forerunner. • The plane will be employed by the Canadian Government for the eradica- tion of the spruce worm from the spruce forests of. Central Western Canada. The regular Ford landing gear was replaced with"pontoons prior to. delivery because the wide expanse of territory over which the plane will be operated has no im- proved airports, but'possesses thous- ands of small: lakes which:may be. made safe harbors of the large ship. Arrangements were made in. the cabin of the plane for the: carrying of 1,600 pounds of'powder with which. the `forests are 'dusted. ' Experience: has shown that in this type of preser- vation work, which the Canadian Goverment regards as necessary to, sa"ve the northern -spruce, the aero- plane must be flown close to the tree tops. This permits both an even and general distribution of the powder over the tree. Decision was made by Canadian Officials to adopt the tri -motored plane for this work because of the added safety factor it possesses in low flying, plrts the additional load it can carry. • Except fol the pontoons, the plane is one of the'standard type all -metal transports -of the Ford Motor Com- pany. It is powered by three J-6 Wright Whirlwind motors, generat- ing a total of 900 horsepower, and. giving a high' speed of 127 miles per hour. The aeroplane was first used for dusting cotton as a. protection against the bell weevil in 1922, when experi- ments disclosed that a plane could do the owrk as effectively as 100. ground -operated dusting machines. 5 DRESSES � IN ■i. ■ ■ II sv 111.
