CLAY FOR MEERsCHAUMs.
1t is Mined In the Same Man
ner as Coal.

Rich deposits of meerschaum hav,
been found twenty miles to the south
east OF Eski Shehir, an important sta
ton OF the Anatolian railway, says
the New York Mercury. Judging
from the number of pits, at consider.
able distance from each other, it must
be extensive.
The localities where the most work
is carried on are Sepstdji. Odjeaghl and
Kemikdji-objadghI. The meer.
schaum is extracted in the same way
as coal. Pits from 55 to 100 feet deep
are dug, and as soon as the vein is
struck, horizontal galleries, some
times OF considerable length, are
made, but more than two galleries
are seldom to be found in one nj.
The stone as extracted is called sham
fash" or rough block, and is soft
enough to be easily cut with knife.
1t is white, with yellowish tint, and
Is covered with a clayey soil about
one inch thick. In this state the
blocks are purchased by the dealers
on the spot, not by weight or measur-
ment, but according to the approx
mate quantity, either per load OF
three sacks or per cart load, the price
varying from $25 to $3.50 per load, &C.
riding to quality. These blocks are
dried aud subjected to certain prepa-
ratians before being conveyed to Eski
Shehir. Some OF them are as small
10 walnut, while others attain the
'ize of cnbic foot. Those which
combine regularity of surface and size
lre the best.
