Western Canada, where the millions of
acres of valuable lands open for settle
ment are attracting an ever-increasing
army of coionists from every civilized

Western Canada were simply a vast

of the very finest agricultural. sections

of Canada extends from the eastern

DIR. Stephen II. Emmens, Of Emmens,
Penn, who is known to fame as the
inventor of the powerful explosive
which bears his name, asserts that he
has worked out into practical shape a
process of direct conversion Of pig iron
into wrought iron by means of cleo
tricity. The process is simply an
elaboration and adaptation of eX-
isting methods of electrical deposition,
and by this means DIR. Emmens claims
TO be able to produce from any grade
of pig iron, ductile malleable irop of
almost chemical purity, which only
needs washing, heating and rolling to
make it equal to the best quality of
Swedish iron. The inventor of this
novel process claims that he can pro-
duce wrought iron by this method at a
lower cost than the ordinary process of
pudding and that still further
economy results from the use Of low
grades of pig iron made from ores that
are too impure to be used by existing
processe of conversion,
