Construction of the two con- tcrete piers and the end abut- Iments of the Hillsboro Bridge is expected to get underway this Hall. Tenders for the bridge foun- édations will be called Novem- t'ber 17 and the contract calls for i commencement with i n one gmon-tih with a completion date 112 months later. i' The bridge which will link the ltwo approaches being presently ‘constructed and will have an {over all length of 886 eet, 8 in- ches. It will have a 24 foot drive Way with a four foot walk on either side. The dec.; of the bridge will be or concrete. Building the piers of the pre- sent bridge will recall to some of our older citizens the con- struction of the present Hills- boro bridge at the early part of the present century. NEW METHODS
Construction methods of today will differ somewhat 'to those used in the first structure when men Worked in the caissons
The 75 high piers will have an outside wall of steel sheet piling. At the base these piers will be 45 feet long and 30 feet wide.
The dry aggregate for the con- crete will first be placed-within
placed throughout the rock and sand the liquid cement will be pumped in. The pipes will be

known as concrete“.
The lower section of the pier rises 75 feet from the bottom. On the top of this is constructed another smaller pier 29 feet long by 11 feet wide. These smaller piers whicn support the bridge are 22 feet in height.
DIFFERENT STRUCTURE
The abutments will be of en- tirely different construction They will consist of a concrete bridge seat -— actually a heavy concrete slao placed on top of hents of steel. "1H" piles.
The bridge superstructure will be known as a s.-e1 deck truss bridge. Here again will be noted a difference in structure of the former bridge which was actual- ly supported by the steel from above.
In the new bridge all of the supporting steel will be under the deck. Only a low railing will be above the sunface of the bridge. This will enable motor- ists or pedestrians to have an unobstructed view of the river and surrounding countryside as they pass over.
To construct the concrete piers and abutments It will re- quire some 40,000 bags of can ent; 575 tons of steel sheet pil- ing and 140 tons of “H” piling. Fifty tons of reinforcing steel will be used and the concrete

»‘ Last" spring-mtg purchased the old Canteen Building at the Cove- liead Race Track and moved it to a suitable location in New Glas- gow where they have made it into a Hall and provide weekly enter- tainment for the surrounding dis- trict. This venture provides some of the funds to carry on worth while projects.
One of the more recent activi- ties was the promotion of the Blood Donors Clinic. An all time record had been established for the area in getting [people out to give this life saving fluid. These are only a few of the types of projects which this gmqu engag- es in promoting in addition to. their regular meetings and pro- grames.
PULLORUM TESTING
The Annual Pullorum Testing Programme is well under way. Notices and application forms have gone out to all Hatchery sup- plied flocks. A number of these have been returned to the office, however, there are still a con- siderable number to come in. The Provincial Poultryman, George MacNeill urges that you send in Ilhese applications as soon as pos- sible.
This testing pnogra-mine is con-' -tinued each year in order to give the maximum assurance to the purchasers of Island Chicks that they are coming from Pullorum Free stock.
Hog prices have been unusually steady this spring and summer. Weekly average prices of grade A hogs at Toronto rose from $30.00 .per 100 lb. dressed in late winter to a peak of $34.50 at the end of May but had fallen back to $28.00 by August 30. During the early spring. prices were bol- stered by the usual seasonal ad— dition’to storage stocks of pork as well as by the shortage of beef on the North American con- tinent. Conversely, Ihog prices dur- ing the late spring and in the summer were moderated A by slowly declining beef prices, movement of pork out of storage and an early seasonal increase in markedngs.
For the first time in at least ten years, there were more hogs marketed in August than in July. Markotings in August averaged about 109 thousand hogs per week. seven per cent more than in JULV. 32 per cent more than a Year earlier and 44 per cent more than the ten year average for that month. llarkeiings during:
Island Anglican Parishes Plan To Raise $200,000
The Anglicans “Follow Me“ Deanery of PE. Island at a Loyalty Dinner in the banquet
The meeting was presided over
Summerside and attended by 125 wardens. vestrymen and others representing the 22 parish churches in the Province.
“We are at the cross-roads where many needed things for the Diocese must be supplied if
an an adequate level. This the responsibility of every Par- ish”, Rev. Harrison said in his opening remarks.
Stanley Vass of Ellerslie said that the present movement was the most important forward stcp ever taken by Anglicans in PE. Island.
3-YEAR PERIOD
Col. A. H. Peake described the birth of the movement which has for it’s objective the raising of one million dollars in the Dio- cese of Nova Scotia which in- cludes P. E. Island. with a pros- pective giving of 3200.000 from P.E.I. over a‘three-year period. “It takes courage that comes in answer to prayer to pledge sacrifically”, Col. Peake said. “When we remember that the Church is a living movement that must be maintained for our children to follow — that our Faith has motivated all worth- while experiences in our lives— that our decision to give in
' keeping with our ability to give
is not difficult — but a joy and a privilege". Crusade Committee Chairman R. T. Henthorn in a stirring ad- dress described the over-all pic~ ture of Christian Church giving in Canada. “Seven per cent of spending goes to recreation while less than one per cent is allocated to the Church. Surely God’s share should be at the top of the budget whereas it is now unfortunately at the bot- om, if appearing at all”, Mr. Hentihorn said. ESTIMATES
