LOSS TO DOMINION.
SCIENTISTS’ DEPARTURES.
WELLINGTON, July 24
“It seems to me that this country has lost many men of eminence in science because the Government of the day was not prepared to pay them salaries comparable with the benefits their services were to New Zealand, Mr F. AY. Grainger, president of the New Zealand Association of Refrigeration, .remarked last night at a dinner of the association in Wellington when a medal for the best paper of the year was presented to Mr C. R. Bariricoat, M.Sc., of Palmerston North, who leaves shortly to engage in research work in the United States. “Though we are only a small country there seems to me no reason why we should not retain our research scientists, for more than any other country we depend on the quality of our efforts to hold the world’s markets,” ho said, expressing the hope that after his special studies overseas Air Barnicoat would return to New Zealand. Air Grainger added that New Zealand producers and industrialists were becoming more “scientifically-minded in applying to the improvement of production and marketing the discoveries made in research by scientists at Lincoln College. Alassey College and the Cawthron Institute.
