‘*The Government of Canada has employed airplanes or seaplanes to make photograiphic surveys of unsettiâ€" ed sections of the country and so to expedite the mapping of those territorâ€" ies. That Government, too, has usea aireraft to transport surveyors and officials and their instruments and ‘*Progress in aviation in Canada has tul,lu»ed lines indicated by the spesiAl 1'0(11111'(’11.*_":@ of the country. That progress has not yotuheen shown in the establishment and oper@*tion of airplane services for the transporii tion of passengers and goods between large centres of population. Un the contrary, the development has taken place largely in sparselyâ€"settled porâ€" tions of the Dominion and beyond the sigzht of the magjority of Canadians. Some of the development have been «arried on at the expense of the Goâ€" vernments of the Dominion and the Provinces, and some on purely comâ€" mercial lines and without the aid of subsidies from the State. Development Largely Confined to Use in Sparselyâ€"Settled Districts. The proposal to establish an aero club in this district, as brought before the Timmins Board of Trade recently, has naturally imcreased interest in air service in this distmcet. It may be noted here, as mentioned on many scores of oceasions in the past dozen years, that this North Land, on acâ€" count of its inmense distances, offers a particularly appropriate field for air service. In Australia, which is also a country of hbig distanges, the air service has assumed darge proporâ€" tions. _ The Australian Government has given gpecial assistance to airmen and the country has now a large mileâ€" age of air services. In comparison with its progress in other lineg, Rusâ€" sia, another land of big distances, has made fair progress in the matter of air services. Of course the most exâ€" tended use of airships is made in that land of big distances, the United States of America. _ It should not he forgotten, however, that Canada has a larger area even than that of the U m.ted States, and so the relation of the airshiyp to the giving of service to distant points is of special interâ€" est to Canada.

MURDOCK PRESIDENT MINING ASSOCIATION supplies to the scenes of their lJlabors in the field. The Dominion Governâ€" ment and the Governments of certain of the Provinces have found airplanes very valuable means of patrolling forest areas for the detection of fires and of transporting men and apparaâ€" tus to such fires. The Ontario Govâ€" ernment, indeed, has organized its own air service for forest protection, and in 1927 operated 22 flyving boats and seaplanes and employed a staff of 56 superintendents, pilots and air engineers,. Private corporations have aperated aireraft, too, for the purpose of carrying prospectors and other perâ€" sons, supplies and some kinds of equipment from railway lines to minâ€" ing camps and mineralâ€"bearing areas that could not be reached by railway. ation of flying services in Northern Ontario, Manitoba and Saskatchewan, and has to ‘his credit many hours of lying with passengers and goods. He has won a trophy that is intended as a reward for continuous useful appliâ€" cation of the art of flying rather than for merely spectacular flights. _ The trophy, thus, is given for suceessful efforts in the field in which most of the developments in aviation in Canaâ€" da ‘have taken place. That field has been widened of late by the employâ€" ment of alrclatt to carry mails heâ€" teween Toronto, Ottawa and Monâ€" treal and Rimouski, the most easterly sort of eall in Canada for transatianâ€" tic steamships on the St. Lawrence route. This beginning of the estabâ€" lishment of airplane reutes and the formation of eleven light airplane cizhs in Canada give evidence of an increass of interest in aviation in the Dominion and suggest the opening of a new tchapter in the de\ elopmont of aviation in the country.‘ ‘*In view of the widespread interest in fur farming, .parn('uldrl\ in the Western provinces,""‘ says the Chaâ€" pleau correspondent: of The Sudbury Star, ‘‘it may come somewhat as a surprise to many to learn that Chaâ€" pleau has now entered this sphere of activity by the establishment of a rovernment licened fur farm given over excelusively to the rarsing of muskrats.
