GROWING POPULARITY
OF GYPSUM PRODUCTS

We notice in the Saturday Evening
Post under date of June 10 building
material made from Gypsum or rather
its calcined product that should COM
mand the attention of every man who
is interest ed in good building con-
struction. 1t is displacing wood and
even the metal lath in edifices of every
type and has earned the unqualified
commentator of architects and build
ers everywhere. Every architect owes
it to his clients, every owner owes it to
himself to investigate this material
before making old style specifications
1t is plaster board and has succeeded
and is succeeding because it is some-
thing more than a mere base to hang
plaster on, 1t offers advantages and
gives results that are not obtainable
in any other way. 1t makes warmer
wall than wood lath, is cheaper than
expanded metal and resists FIRE far
better than either. 1t consists of al.
ternate layers of felt and plaster rolled
into sheets which are nailed to the
studding, presenting hard, smooth
surface to which the plaster when APP
piled adheres perfectly, the board is
non infiamable and makes partition
that retains heat excludes cold and is
an effective sound deadener 1t can
also be used between floors as sound
deadener and is also used for sheath
ing
Tar paper used in the ordinary
sheathing usually cracks, the plaster
board gives a warm tight wall and
costs 25 to 40 per cent less than lum-
Der and paper; when used in interior
work the plaster is put on it with half
the usual amount of water. thereby
saving time, dries quicker and reduces
warping and shrinking of timbers
The finished wall is hard and firm,
can be depended upon not to warp or
crack and the ceilings are not subject
to streaks caused by porosity of the
clinches as in ordinary lathing. In
warehouses and commercial plants the
fire proof and insulating properties of
plaster board can be utilized in many
ways between floors. as covering for
exposed metal surfaces. and as non
conductor IL the casing of kilns and
refrigerating plants. The state in
sane asylum at Binghamton, the
Marlboro hotel at Ashbury Park, the
Savoy theatre, New York, the United
States Naval academy at Annapolis
and the building being erected on the
site of the Symes Block in Denver are
types of buildings in which it has been
used successfully and economically 30

Weekly Stock Letter

Denver Union Stock Yards, June 10
"A good stron g demand for beef cat
tie here last week and light run re-
suited in an advance of 10 to Is cents
on choice light weight steers and good
killing cows Heavy steers, while
selling well because of scarcity of
beef, are not so popular with packers
and prices show very little advance ON
these. Common cows are very dull
as demand for the commoner meats
is poor as a result OF recent agitation.
Several punches of good steers sold
here last week at a. 80 with others at
"a. 80 and bulk around "a. 80 to "A. 70.
Best COWS here brought 1895 quality

brought better than $500. Most of
the offerings were rather common and
few landed above 1896 Good bulls
closed steady with fair demand.
Common bulls dull. Veals dropped
dollar on Monday and later ruled
about steady at this decline. Few
feeders and stockers were here and
only limited number wanted All
stock cattle are fully quarter lower
in sympathy with big declines east
Dealers on this market believe the
demand fol choice beef cattle will be
strong all fall. The public has
practically stopped eating canned stuff
and the commoner grades of meats,
and the demand for this class of cat.
tie is dull and expected to be for some
time. The American people, how.
ever, are educated to meat eating and
as they have no fear of the better
grades are turning to these with the
result that even at this time, when
agitation is at its height, demand for
good beef cattle is strong. Stockmen
should therefore make their cattle good
before sending them in.

citizens. This, the visitors claimed,
was the best treat of all and one they
regarded as the biggest compliment, as
the fair ladies of Glenwood came out
in goodly numbers to welcome them.
The Hotel Colorado orchestra furnished
excellent music for the occasion and
it was after 10 O'Clock before the
guests departed for their homes.
The visitors expressed great surprise
at the richness of the fruit country in
the Grand Valley and many of them
said they would surely visit Colorado
again at very early date for further
Investigation into the states won der

that each day, month and year brings
constantly increasing demand for
the products of the unlimited quanti-
ties of Gypsum at our very doors
which we have all looked at and won
dered if mother nature ever did any
thing amiss The Grand Rapids Plas-
ter company of Grand Rapids, Michi-
gan, deserves great credit for this
new feature in the plaster line.
The product which will soon be
turned out by the mill which is
to be erected few miles above Glen
wood is the identical material which
is used in the manufacture of this
plaster board. When we consider the
tremendous demand for this product
it looks as though Glenwood would
soon be the center of very profitable
industry.

with a plenitude of coin, but no one
has been positively known to have
taken anything but disappointment
from Cocos island.
The tale is that the barque Mary
Dea was lying at Lima when the Peru
Wan city was being attacked, and the
authorities put thirty millions of dol
lars worth of treasure in jewels and
gold and silver, coin, ETC., on board the
barque in charge of Capt. Thompson,
whose cupidity was aroused, and he
sailed away and buried the treasure on
Cocos isle, intending to return to seek
1t again. But the vessel, a Nova Scotia
barque, was pursued, and all hands
made prisoners or killed. Thompson
and mate alone escaping by swim
ming to an American whaler. So
runs the story. Both have since died,
leaving maps, one of which Capt. Fred
Hackett is said to possess.
Mrs. Mary D. Hitchcock, who wrote:
1.-TWO Women in the Klondike," and
who was we'll known in Victoria and
the north, was much interested in the
story of the treasure, and recently
wrote to Capt. Hackett, it is said, with
view of forming another company to
make a search on COcos island.
