TIMBER, COAL, OIL, NATURAL GAS ROSPECTS of new wealth in boundless quantities, through the appil- to industry, were unfolded the other day by Arthur D, in an address at the Royal Alexandra, at Winnipeg, given in his honor by the Canadian Manufacturers' Assoc. represents the firm of Arthur D, Little, lnc., of Boston, an 'chemists and engineers, whose specialty is industrial Lord Shaughnessy, president of the Canadian Pacific, a branch in Montreal, and Mr, Little has undertaken te $ of Canada. His address yesterday was partly the result lof & tour through Canada, which he had nade fn company with George Bury, (Vice-President of the C. P. R. W. M. Ingram, president of the Manufacturers' Association, introduced speaker, ' Mr. Little explained that he was born in Boston, and therefore belonged fa those who do not have to be born again. He was therefore surprised to find himself, after a Bre acquaintance with Canada, undergoing an unexpected of rebirth. He had found himself In a new and ampler world, in one breathed a more stimulating atmosphere and léarned to think fu jcontinental terms. It was a world in which present achievement, wonderful though it was, derived its chief significance from its promise of the future, 'He had y seds, mountains rich in noble rivers and cities so clean, orderly land metropolitan that the traveller's admiration was blended with envy, It Mad been his good fortune to come to Western Candda with George Bury, Vice-President and General Manager of the C. P. R, Mr. Bury's knowledge of conditions and potentialities throughout the country was se full that to travel with him was to receive a liberal education. Natural resources, proceeded Mr. Little, did net of themselves create great industries, Such industries regulted from personal Initiative. Oppor tunity implied responsibility, and it was upon the heirs of this rich inheri- Rance that the responaibility for a wise initiative was placed. The first requisite for a wise initiative was a compelling desire to do something with 'the opportunities at hand, and the second Was knowledge. Sciefice was eniy knowledge at its best; it was not something occult, to be followed for its own sake, but was fritensely practical. The war had taught English-speaking people that science was the basis of prosperity and power, and that without 1 there could be ne liberty and no national existence. Mr. Little defined industrial research as research having for its immed! ate and avowed purpese some practical end, No greater service could be per formed than that of inculcating into the public mind a proper appreciation of 'what research gould do. For forty vears the Spirit of research had pervaded ithe entire social structure of Germany, with the Teanit Lat Germany aitheugh mot possessed of great natural resources, had befo e War been rapidly making a peaceful conquest of the world. In the United States the hand- writing on the wall was being read, and already several large corporations found it prefitable to maintain great research laboratories. At least a dozen corporations spent $100,000 or more on such laboratories, and one company employed 650 chemists. « Thers was alse, declared Mr, Little, an insistent demand throughout the British Empire for the mobilization, co-ordination and extension of facilities. Lord Shaughnessy had acted by calling the organization repre sented by the speaker, Arthur D. Little, Inec., of Boston, to Canada, for the survey of the natural! resources of the Dominion and the promotion of indus- trial research. He and his associates felt that, in so doing, Lord Shaughnessy had honored them so signally that they would be dishonored if they talled to make the most Gf the opportunity placed in their hands. They were not in {of San Francisco, Cal., formerly of Oanada in the exclusive interest of any corporation, but to serve all clients | whose intérests were in line with those of the Dominion. Their work had | ' searcely begun. Ultimately they hoped to have the known resources of the Dominion indexed, so that the main facts about them would be instantly available. 'They expected to assist in securing new facts, and were assured of the cordial co-operation of the Federal Government and the universities. They would strive to introduce industries along new and non-competitive lines and, if permitted to, Improve the practice of many existing Industries. Some progress could be reported already, although they had only been in Canada a few weeks, : Mr. Little then mentioned a few of the lines In which applied science could help in the production of Canadian wealth, Sometimes as much as £0,000,000 acres were sown to flax in Canada for the grain only. It was not pg in view of lhe labor situation, to grow flax for the fibre in order make linen, But mountains of flax straw resulted from the growing of flax for the seed, because when grown for tht purpose it was sown much nore sparsely thal When grown for fibre, and its habit of growth wap changed.

By this method, copper was put {nto the ofl, the 'sulphur attacked the copper, leaving the ofl pure. There was lignite in Canada. This was a good gas producer, and a new type of a rotary, which worked well with lignite, had recently been made available, Another possibility for Canada, sald the specker, was the production dry milk. Several processes for doing this had been invented. Sterilized kept good for a long time, and for certain purposes, including those of and confectioners, was better than ordinary milk. It could be restored to condition of ordinary milk by the addition of water. He was convinced it would become a staple article on the kitchen shelf. Its great merit that, in shipping, seven-eighths of the freight on ordicary milk was and dairies could profitably be established at points remete from About $16,000 worth of dried milk entered London daily frem and quantities were going into New York, Properly haadled, the dried Industry could become in Canada more important than the cheese industry, Another thing about milk, sald Mr. Little, was the fact that thousands gallons of skim milk were dally fed to hogs. Casein, worth 30 cents a could be easily extracted from skim milk. One of the most promising fields for industrial research was that affo by the enormeus quantity of straw, for which Canadians had no present ) > straw already; straw boards and board 'could be made.

'What could not with them, with the aid of Industrial research? Speaking of the lumber industry, Mr. Little sald, the Canadian lum! practice was not better than the best in the United States. In the States, thirds of a tree felled'in the yellow pine belt was wasted as litter in the or burned as mill waste. Three dollars a thousand was a good lumber. For 15,000,000,000 feet board measure which found its way 30 billion feet were wasted. This was net industry; it was crime. A few months ago there had been 2,600,000 automobiles in the U States, and they were increasing at the rate of 4,000 a day. These mach: represented 60,000.000 horse-power in gasoline engines. That was more the potential horse-power of the United States water power. Auto man turers were bringing in an additional 100,000 horsepower a day. The unpre cedented increase in the demand for gaseline thus caused was responsible fi the high price of that commeodit + jand soon there would not be em line to go round.
