North Dakota CIays For Brick
and Pottery.

Office Of Agricultural and Econo-
mic Survey Of North Dakota.
Agricultural College, Fargo, N. D.
It has long been known that
North Dakota contains valuable
deposits of clays and for several
years there has been an increas-
ing demand for a better knowledge
concerning the value Of these clays
for brick making, pottery, etc.
Both chemical analysis and practi-
cal tests show that many Of these
clays are suitable for the manu.
facture of high grade building and
ornamental material, fire brick and
even pottery and cement. Each
month there is an increased num-
Der of samples sent in for analysis
or testing, many of which we have
had to refuse for lack of facilities
for this work.
TO satisfy the demand made
upon the survey to investigate
these problems and to promote the
development Of these important
resources, arrangements have be.n
completed in connection with the
federal survey, whereby practical
tests will now be made with all
promising samples Of clay sent in
from our state.
If you are interested in any de
posts Of clay that may be Of
economic value and desire to have
them tested, notify the director Of
the survey and you will receive
full instructions for the securing
and shipping Of samples. which
will be tested during the winter
without expense to the owners,

had Il big water wheel to run his ma

stream that flowed down tn" East
mountain. The pt for the old water
wheel was located as late as Il few
