A cable message received from America
that an American syndicate has purchased
for G1,OOO, 900 the American rights of a new
process Of preparing silt has been confirmed
by the patentee, Mr.. James Hodglnson, Of
the firm Of Hodgkinson (Limited) ,mechan-

in the patent were sod last week to the
Canadian Pacific Railway Company, who
have found brine along their line.
Extensive experiments with the process
are already in progress at the salt works at
Northwich, Cheshire. 1t is claimed that tie
invention will enable the salt manufacturer
to produce five or six times as much salt as
is produced by the existing process. The

INSECT PESTS IN AFRICA.
Carnegie Research Scholarships.

The following statement was issued last
week by the Colonial Office
With a view to furtnerlng the work of
the African chronological Research Com
mitteo Mr.. Andrew Carnegie has been good
enough to place at its disposal a sum OF 81, 900
a year for three years to defray the cost of
sending a few suitably qualified young men
to the United States to study the practical
applications Of entomology which have re-
ceived 50 much attention ia that country.
Three Of these Carnegie scholars, as they are
to he called, have been selected. and two of
them are already at work in tie States.
The fact that DR.. L. 0. Howard, chief Of tho
Bureau OF Entomology at Washington, is
personally interesting himself in the matter
IS Il sufficient guarantee that all possible
facilities will be given to The scholars, and
