HUIVT, ,'l, Chicago Paris and large plants at Notre Dame de Briancon, in the Department of Savoie, France, and at Martigny, Switzerland. The establishment at Notre Dame de Briancon is the only one of its kind in France. It is elaborately described, with illustra- tions of buildings and machinery, and with complete scientific analysis of the entire process, in the Genie Civil, for August, 1909 [a copy of which is on file in the bureau of manufactures]. "This company has a capacity at Briancon of 120 cubic meters of nitro- gen gas per hour, and in 1909 produced about 900 tons of cyanamid. This year it has turned out during the first three months 1,000 tons, and ex- pects to produce during the year at its two plants in France and Switzerland from 9,000 to 10,000 tons. Even at this increased rate of production it is unable to supply the rapidly growing demand, as the use of nitrate fertil- izers is steadily expanding in France. The German companies produced dur- ing the year ended May 30, 1909, .S,.500 tons of cyanamid, and since that date 3,500 tons. Their capacity is being steadily increased. The largest plant thus far in Europe is that of the Northwestern Cyanamid Co. at Adda, Norway, which produces 500 cubic meters of nitrogen gas per hour, and it is reported that the capacity of that establishment is to be doubled. All accounts agree that the demand for cyanamid everywhere exceeds the available supply, and most of the man- ufacturing companies are planning greatly to increase their productive ca- pacity. "Elaborate experiments have been made with cyanamid in competition wi
