OUTPUT OF FuLnER's EARTH.
Uses and Methods of Manufacture
Eully Described.

The production of fuller's earth,
which is consumed In this country.
chiefly by the manufacturers OF lard
and cottolene, increased from 20,693
short tons valued at $190,277, In 1908,
TO 29,4S0 short tons, valued at $685.
500, in 1904, according to the annual
report of the United States geological
survey
1t is noteworthy that the price was
considerably less during 1904 than
during 1903 The production was
limited largely to Florida. shared to
some extent by Arkansas and to a
less degree by Alabama. Massachu-
sets, Colorado and New York. Utah
produced an experimental lot of half
ton during the year. OF unwrought
or manufactured fuller's earth, l.
763 long tons, valued at $9546. were
imported into the United States dur
ing -yJ4, and 1868 long tons of
wrought or manufactured fuller's
earth, valued at $64,46O.
Fullers earth is chierly employed
abroad for fulling wool. but in Ameri-
ca II is used mainly for deodorizing,
bleaching and clarifying fats. oils and
greases. For the purpose of clarity
ing lard and cottonseed oil small
quantity, or 3 per cent of fuller S
earth is ground to fineness of 100
to l20 mesh and is added to the hot
oil. After Il thorough agitation the hot
liquid is passed through filter press,
and when the earth and coloring i'm
purities have been removed the oil is
81, 10 ha
fuller's earth has almost superseded
bone black in this process. A small
quantity of fuller's earth is also mar
keted in powdered form, specially
prepared for removing grease spots
II might also be used to advantage
in removing calcium carbonate from
water used for boiler supplies and
thus prevent dedeterious incrustations
on the inside of boilers.
The value of fuller's earth as a
bIeacher in the filtration treatment of
various oils is shown in the fact that
while the quantity produced in the
United States increased from Gpout
1000 short tons in 1895 to about 30,-
600 tons in 1904, the imports also
have grown from over 5000 tons In
1898 to over $1,000 tons in 1908.
These 5000 tons, together with our
production of that year, MAJ total
consumption of over $4,000 tons for
1903. Similarly, in 1904. in spite OF
the increased production to 29.4Sl
short tons, the imports were over
5000 tons so that the total quantity
absorbed by the industry amounted to
nearly 10000 short tons.
The production of Florida in l9O4
was about three-fourths of the entire
output of the United States, and 1t viii
probably be greater next year. 1t IL
likely also that the output of fuller!
earth in Arkansas for use in refining
animal and cottonseed oils will be con
siderably increased.
