The sand about Ardmore has also
been given a thorough test at East
Liverpool. Ohio, and has been found
OF the very highest grade for the
making OF cut and pressed as well
as plate glass. It would be excellent
for pottery purposes. also. 1t will
cost fully sl50.00O to install a nine.
kiln pottery and about 100000 addi-
tional working capital. This would
give employment to about $40 men
and boys. the average wage for the
whole force being about s2.25 a day.
