Cement Resources of United States

Cement Resources Of United States.
During the field season of 1903, most
OF the cement-producing districts OF
the United States were visited by
members Of the United States geolog-
ical survey, and data were collected
for report on the cement resource:
and industries of the country. The
districts not visited in 1903 will BIZ
examined early in 1904, and detailed
report on the subject will be pub
lished as soon as possible. In the
meantime, three papers on interesting
cement districts have been prepared
and are published in bulletin No. 225
One of these districts in Pennsyl
vania, now produces about go per cent
of the total United States production
of Portland cement, while the othel
two, in Alabama and Virginia, whict
are at present only slightly developed
give promise of becoming importan
centers of production. These papers
include one on the cement rock de
pesit of the Lehigh district of Penn
sylvania and New Jersey, by Mr.
Edwin G. Eckel, one on the cemen
resources of Alabama, by Dr. Eugen,
A. Smith, and one of the cement re
sources Of the Valley of Virginia, b.

AxLES MADE FROM SCRAPS,
Much Old Metal Is Used in the Con-
struction Of Railway
Freight Cars.

Old scrap iron, lying in heaps and rust
ing away under the influence of the
weather, has been utilized by a street
railway company in western town. II
has been found, states the Chicago
Chronicle, that from this material can
be secured much better axles than those
purchased in the market or that can be.
obtained from rolled bar iron Instead
of disposing of all scrap to junk deal
er, as is usual, the metal is sorted into
several grades, castIron, wrought iron
or steel. Part of this Is then disposed
of through the regular channels, but
the No. and No. wrought iron scrap
is set aside for the manufacture of
axles. The several pieces, which are of
all sizes and shapes, are arranged in
binders, made Of bent pieces of scrap
plate, giving a rough pile about ten
inches wide, eight inches thick and 16
inches long, which is not too large to
be conveniently handled
These bundles of scrap are then stored
until needed. A reverbatory furnace,
heated by oil, which is made econom-
ically possible by the cheapness of fuel
oil on the Pacific coast, is employed for
heating these bundles of scrap to weld
ing heat, for forging by steam ham
mer into slabs. About IL bundles are
worked at a heat, and when each issues
from under the 3,300-pound steam ham
mer, the volume is reduced more than
half, there only remaining slab six
inches by two inches and three feet six
inches long. Three Of these slabs are
then welded together to form the small
est size axle. After being worked to the
proper shape, the rough ends are cut off
and finished in lathes to dimension
sizes.
The car company officials assert that
the axles thus produced from scrap are
cheaper and possess greater ductility
and better fiber than any axles they can
purchase. Incidental to the process the
| flue heat from the furnace is passed
| through waste heat boiler that pro-
duces sufficient steam to operate three
steam hammers in the blacksmith
shop.

The Third Division.

A Southern planter employed ne
gro to work some of his land during
the last year on shares. On account
of the high price of cotton the ne.
gro's half of the proceeds amounted
to $1,000. The planter knew that it
would ruin any Afro-American to get
such sum of money, and decided
that half of 1t would be enough. Upon
further reflection the conviction grew
upon him that $500 would ruin any
negro in the world, so he cut the sum
in half again, and piling four hundred
shining silver dollars on his desk sent
for the negro and brother, and said
that he was ready to settle. The man
fairly gasped at the amount of wealth
in sight.

UNITED STATES GYPSUM.
Deposits Have Been Developed in
Many States Throughout
the Union.

The manifold uses to which gypsum
Is now applied gives its production
great importance. Ground gypsum
serves valuable purpose in agricul-
ture as land plaster, increasing the fer
tility of soils. One of the uses with
which we could dispense is that as an
adulterant of flour and other products,
Calcined gypsum may be classified as
plaster of Paris and wall plaster,
Plaster of Paris is used principally in
molding, for forming molds and plas-
ter ornaments, especially such as are
used in interiors. The glory of Chica-
gos white city might have remained
an urTealized dream had it not been
for the gypsum deposits of the coun-
try. The use of plaster of paris as
molds in the manufacture of porcelain
is extensive. In The plate glass indus
try thousands of tons are required
annually for bedding the glass during
the process of grinding and polishing
1t is also employed as a filler in paper
and as a minor constituent of some
Portland cements. Some raw gypsum
is used as body for paint. Calcined
gypsum prepared with glue and pig
ments, and sometimes called alabas.
