of A. ". Patterson. Of Mushosee, Okla.
a former pioneer business man of that

tural implements. He was n Of the
organizers of the Marshalltown Barb
Wire Works, OF this city, in which
pjoneer business men of this city were
interested. In 1881 he moved to Car

1t is fortunate that later develop

Before discussing this, however. just
word about two fields of activity which
cheaper electricity and its production in
large quantities enables us to occupy
viz:
First-The reduction of certain met
ais from their ores. either wholly or in
part as, for example. the production OF
aluminium, and largely the refining of
the high grade of copper known as cleo
trolytc copper.
Second-The great and growing cleo
tro-chemical industry. remarkable
example OF this art Is the hxation of
the nitrogen In the air thus producing
an extremely valuable fertilizer. AS air
is everywhere obtainable. this method
enables enormous natural sources OF
power located in Inaccessible places TO
be commercially utilized The Rjukan-
fos plants in Norway. located where
practically no electrical power is used
for other purposes, have installed lG5.-
600 .kva. OF generating apparatus In one
plant and 1000 kva. in another

tirely to the fxation Of nitrogen and its

projected In North America, one Of

THIS electrificaton Is conspicuous in
being the first I'm this country arranged
to utilize the energy In the descending

the motors on these locomotives are such
that they automatically hold the train

Among the other large users OF cleo

Here very large motors are used. where
ordinary mills use motors of hundreds
of rsc-power steel mills require them
of thousands of horsepower. Motors
have been installed in some mills which
can develop 5000 hp. to 10000 hp. for
hours at a time. In some cases these
motors are designed to take the swings
Of from 10 400 hp. to 10000 hp. for short
periods. and can reverse from full speed
in one direction to full speed IN the
opposite IN from Ave to ten seconds.
The induction motor has not Itself
the ideal characteristics for many kinds
of steel mill work, but its adaptability
for large units appears to outweigh all
disadvantages In most cases. In the
