Clearing fog with calcium chloride spray for runways
A method uses calcium chloride spray to absorb moisture and clear fog. Long tunnels carved through fog measure 2000 feet by 150 feet by 100 feet, enabling bomber and transport landings. High costs and strong winds limit feasibility.

Household Hints From Everyday Life
Parrafin on a sticky window cord helps. Add jam to cookie dough for freshness. Sawdust in a hen nest outperforms straw. Spraying clothes on the line aids starching. Heat expands jar lids making them easier to open. A cork in the kitchen drawer serves as a tack tray. Glue tape eases rug fray by reweaving yarns and turning edges under.
