WESTERN TRADE NOTES.

MR. FOREE BAIN has just returned from a trip to the coal mining regions of Iowa, where he has been carefully looking over some of the mines located there, with the view of fitting out two of the largest with a complete equipment of electric machinery, comprising motors for transmission of power, dynamos and electric lighting apparatus. Mr. Bain is remarkably busy building his new motor-dynamos, which were illustrated and described very fully in a recent issue. These machines are giving very excellent satisfaction among their users. One recent order alone amounted to seven 15 horse power motors. This machine is of very solid mechanical construction, simple and not liable to get out of order, and its electrical conditions have been most thoroughly and carefully worked out, thereby obtaining very high efficiency in operation.
