work ; to coordinate all agencies, to induce 

 cooperation and prevent overlapping, and to 

 bring about a community of knowledge; 

 to study the problems which confront our 

 industries and to link up the resources of 

 science with labor and capital so as to bring 

 about the best possible economic results ; to 

 make a study of our unused resources, wastes 

 and by-products with a view to their utili- 

 zation in new or subsidiary processes of 

 manufacturing; to develop ways and 

 means by which the present small force of 

 competent and trained research men can 

 be augmented. 



This work is being rapidly organized and 

 the following organizations have volun- 

 teered to help in it: The Canadian Society 

 of Civil Engineers, Canadian Mining Insti- 

 tute, Canadian Manufacturers' Association, 

 Society of Chemical Industry and the Cana- 

 dian Society of Forest Engineers. The 

 country will be divided up into districts and 

 volunteer field-workers will cover these dis- 

 tricts and gather all available information. 

 There is a considerable shortage of labor 

 this spring, many of the companies having 

 difficulty in getting sufficient men for their 

 drives. The spring has been late and dTy 

 and there is therefore not as much water 

 as is needed for driving operations. 



The Quebec Government is taking an in- 

 terest in the reforestation of its burnt- 

 over lands and is considering arrange- 

 ments by which the limit holders will under- 

 take this work.
