J. Watson Bain, head of the Chemiâ€" cal Engineerlng Branch of the: Faculty of:Applied Science in the University of Toronto, in a ‘recent Address to the Toronto: Electric Club envisaged a huge plant in the Hudson Bay area for the _ manufacture of fertilizers for use in the Canadian West. If Prof. Bain‘s theory is as sound as it appears to be, the logical location for the proposed plant would be in the James Bay reâ€" gion, and preferably somewhere at or near the end of the extension of the T. N. O. railway north of Cochrane. Prof. Bain does not bring his suggestâ€" ed bigâ€"plant to any more definite locaâ€" tion than the Hudson Bay area, but the James Bay area of the Hudson Bay district would seem to fill all the reâ€" quirements of the plan and would have advantages above those of practically all other sections. The accessibility to railway facilities would also prove a helpful factor.

In Ontario the average producâ€" tion is twelve bushels." Before many years, Professor Bain believed, a great plant would be instalâ€" led on some of the northern rivers runâ€" ning into Hudson Bay, where electric power could be developed. Water would be taken from the river to obâ€" tain its hydrogenâ€"content and ritrogen would be removed from the air. The two could be united to form the great basic element of plant food. He was of the opinion rock phosphate could be found in the same area and that coke could be freighted in to complete the manufacture of phorphorus in the huge furnaces which would | derive their heating power from the harnessed waters of the river. "I believe," he said, "that before many years pass we will have to supply fertilizer to the West. They have been "mining" the ground there in the production of wheat. In Germany, to show how important fertilizers are to Canada, it is not uncommon to proâ€" duce forty bushels of wheat to the _ The professor commenced his adâ€" dress by pointing out the fact that the farming land of the West had been "mined" rather than worked. There was little doubt, he held, but that in a few years the Western lands would need a lot of reâ€"vitalizing. He referrâ€" ed to the most modern types of fertiâ€" lizing agents, pointing out that by passing the component part of water and air through a single chemical proâ€" cess, ammonium nitrate, the best and most concentrated fertilizer known, could be produced in unlimited quanâ€" tities. the fusion of rock phosâ€" phate and coke a compound of phosâ€" phorus used in the fertilizing process would result. This made the cheapest and most effective preparation for the rehabilitation of farming lands. James Bay. They have seen the counâ€" try rich in mineral wealth and in the possibility of the development of a big industry in the way of supplying fish. The establishment of mines and other ventures has also been envisioned but none have hitherto suggested the posâ€" sibilities outlined by Prof. Bain. To In both processes, Professor Bain beâ€" lieved electricity would be used for the heat necessary in breaking up the eleâ€" ments of the mediums used. "It will be a contribution of electric engineerâ€" ing" he said. "It is a field in which we can join hands to produce for the benefit of the country at large.‘" _ The Government: of Chile, exporting more sodium, nitrate than any. other country, was paid $250,000 in export tax at the rate of $10 per ton by Canaâ€" dian importers last year, Professor Bain In June, 1919, he returned to the Bank of Montreal in London, England, where he served as Assistant Manager until early in 1922 when he again came to Canada, being appointed Disâ€" trict ‘ SBuperintendent of â€" Manitoba branches with headquarters at Winniâ€" peg.

Mr. Dodds was one of the special speakers coming here to address the Timmins Post of the Canadian Legion shortly after its organization. ‘ Mr. Dodds also was a guest at the Kiwanis Juncheon during his visit to Timmins and addressed that club. _ The promotion of Mr. Dodds to the position of an assistant general manaâ€" ger at headquarters comes as a wellâ€" merited recognition ‘of services well performed in the important position which he has occupied as the Assistant General Manager resident in Winnipeg. Dr. Dodds was born in London, Engâ€" land, and after four years‘ experience in the Comptoir Nationale d‘Escompte de Paris at London he came to Canada in 1901 to enter the service of the Bank of British North America. After several years‘ experience in Eastern Canada he was transferred to the West and was later appointed Manager of the Reston branch. In 1909 he was moved to Vancouver branch as Assisâ€" tant Manager. Two years later he was promoted to London, England, office as Secretary. ‘ On the outbreak of war he enlisted. for active service and went to France in September, 1914, as a private in the Honourable Artillery Company. In April, 1915, he was invalided to Engâ€" land, where he was Appointed Assisâ€" tant Director of Ordinance Services in the 63rd Division.

It was alleged by the attorneyâ€" general‘s office that Pappasimakes had a suite in the Hotel Belmont, where he had a blackboard on which was posted fictitious quotations of stock on the Canadian exchange. One of his methâ€" ods, according to Mr. Panger, was the operation of a pool in the stock of the Hattie CGold Mines Company of Toâ€" ronto, of which Pappasimakes was preâ€" sident. He would offer stock in this concern, which had been selling at from‘8 to 10 cents a share, but would deliver instead worthless stock in the British Mines Operating Company, of which he also was president. . _ The complainant against Pappasiâ€" makes in the case was Mrs. Caroline Wyckoff, of No. 226 West 34th street, New York City, who said she entrustâ€" edâ€" $4,990 to the defendant in May 1925.

She said she believed her husband wealthy and doing legitimate business and and therefore gave him all her money and was now practically without means. According to the accounts of the New York trial, Pappasimakes, a minâ€" ing promoter, obtained about $100, 000'_; from investors in 1925 and 1926, acâ€" cording to Assistant District Attorney Morris G.
