WITH THE CANNING season just gétting under way, the Whitby plant of Stokley-Van Camp of Can- @da, Limited, is a busy place, Peas are the big item for canning at the moment with the plant packiig between 50 and 60 tons per day. The factory employs 140 full-time and part-time workers during the season and is capable of turning out more thafi 4,000 cases 'of canned goods @ day, The picture at left shows the peas, after they have been mixed, washed and put in cans prior to goine to the cooking rooms. A solution of 6Alt And Sugar is added to the peas in the cans. After this step they aré taken to the cook room where 60 Gases of peas ate cooked at the same time at a tempera- tire of 240 degrees. Théy are then taken to a coolifig chati« fel where théy spend 20 minutes and come out at a temperature Of 120 degrees. The picture at fight shows the final step in the process as the cans are labelled and placed in cartons. The cans riih through machines whith lace labels on the cans efore they are placed in cartons for shipment to ¢on- sumers, i Oshawa Times Photos. Farmstead Improvement Planned In County UXBRIDGE -- A Farmstead Improvement Ceéntennial Pro- ject is' being organized in On- tatio County at the present timé, The purpose of this cen- tenfial project is to beautify the countfyside of Ontario Coufity by encouraging the re- pair and painting of farm homes and buildings, by generally tidy- ing up, afd improvement of fences, farm entrances, road- ways and yards, s6 that the farm area of Ontario County will be more attractive for the Centennial year of 1967. The project is being carried out in Ontario County under the se of the Federa- tion of Agriculture in co-opera- tion with the Ontario Depart- ment of Agriculture, and the Ontario County Council. The county will be divided into six areas for the purpose of judging and awarding the prize money. These areas will be as follows: Area No. 1, Pickering Township; Area No. 2, Whitby and East Whitby Townships; Area No. 3, Reach and Scugog 'Townships; Area No. 4, Ux- bridge and Scott Townships; Area No. 5, Brock and Thorah Townships; Area No. 6, Rama and Mara Townships. There is a total of $2,400. in prize money. Four hundred dol lars has been assigned to each of these six areas noted above. Prize money in each area is being allotted as -- ist prize $50; second prizé 5 third prize $30 and fourth to seventh prizes $20. each, There is also a provincial competition, in Which the win- her from Ontario Coiinty will compete. First prize in the pro- vineial competition is $500. All farmers in Ontario ro are eligible for this competi- tion. A farmer is defined as one who receives all or the major portion of his livelihood from the farm on which the improve- ment will be made. Entry forms are available from each township chairman, or from the Ontario Department of Agriculture office, Uxbridge. Mars Pix Studied By RALPH DIGHTON PASADENA, Calif. (AP)-- Scientists at Jet Propulsion Laboratory settled down today to an exhaustive study of Mar- iner 4's 77 photographs of Mars coming in at a rate of one every 10 hours, in a search for some hint of life. Laboratory Director William Hi. Pickering believes some sort ef life exists on Mars and the @gency for which he works, the Aational Aeronautics and Space Administration, has plans for spending hundreds of millions of dollars to find it. No evidence of life showed up fn the first three photographs Teleased last week. They out- lined a desert-like area similar to the broad plains on earth's lifeless moon. Before any more are re- leased, all of the possible 21 photographs taken as Mariner 4 flew past Mars Wednesday are going to be analyzed carefully. Transmitted across 134,000,000 miles of space, they contain many "glitches," an engineer- ing' term. for electronic errors and static. And they show sev- eral markings scientists doubt actually exist on Mars. A like- lier explanation, they say, would be some fault in the cam- era and radio system. SHOW SPOT For instance, all three show a dark spot in the same area of the frame, almost as if the lens were smudged, Frame No. 1 has cloud-like wisps above the surface, but these are much higher than the thin Martian at- mosphere extends. Laboratory scientists have an almost magical way of elimi- nating markings they don't be- lieve are real. They can wipe out traces of noise, make light spots dark and dark spdts light to conform to their concept of what the pictures ought to show. It will be done with comput- ers. Mariner 4's camera is linked to a device which converts the light values of the picture it takes into numbers. Zero is white, 63 is black and the num- bers in between represent vari- ous. shades of gray. The spacecraft radio trans- mits these numbers to earth where they are recorded on tape. The tape is fed into a de- vice which converts the num- bers back into dots of various shades of gray, 200 dots to a line and 200 lines to a picture. COMPUTER TAKES OVER If the dots don't make sense in some areas--if they show a marking where none ought to be--the picture can be made logical by feeding the tape into a computer. Experts tell the computer to print out another tape with the numbers, or dots, made lighter or darker to conform with the dots around it. Mariner 4 will have time to send over again at least twice before it streaks beyond radio range into a wide orbit around the sun. i The full set 'of pictures may not be released until Mariner 4 has replayed its tape at least once. This would allow the sci- entista to check |petition trame| Fine weather and keen com- wailed for the an nual field day at Shaw's Public School. Many records were broken and several others equalled. Interest was particularly keen in the senior girls' division in which Pat Rudell and Charlotte Drinkle tied with 12 points each, just one point behind Diane Lesage, who won the division. Winners in the other groups were: junior girls, Janet Love- kin; junior boys, Rickey Love- kin; intermediate girls, Carol Lovekin; intermediate boys, Ste- phen Barrie; senior boys, Tom Barrie. The winners in the various events were: JUNIOR GIRLS Running race -- Janet Love- kin, Wendy Ayre, Maxine Thomas. Running Broad Jump -- Janet Lovekin, Wendy Ayre, Maxine Thomas.

Sack Race -- Rickey Lovekin, against its duplicate to screen out static that shows in one frame but not the other. After the black-box magic is over and a make-sense set of pictures has been produced, the scientists will spend many days measuring distances and light angles, Only, in this way can they be sure that @ hill is not a crater or that a dark line is static, not one of the canals some as- Eapeeees have reported see- ig. Few scientists expect con: crete evidence of life from these first closeups--although they could show a network of canals if canals exist in the pho: tographed areas. 4 Competition Very Keen At Shaw's Field Day com Greenley, Frank Gal- ello.
