This State Leads All Others in the Pro
ductiOn of This Very Important
Mineral
Manufacturers Record)

''The Production of Fuller's Earth"
by Jefferson Middleton of the United
States Geological Survey. has just been
published as an advance chapter from
Mineral Resources of the United
States. 1910" The fuller's earth re-
sources of the United States. says Mr.
Middleton. have attracted considera BILE
attention for several years because Of
the increasing demand for this material
for use as clarifying agent for min
eral and vegetable oils. The original
use from which It derives it's name
the fulling of cloth. is Of minor i'm
portance.
For great many years fu1ler's earth
was imported from England, the only
known source Of supply, but in 1893 it
was by accident discovered in this
country At Quincy, Fla, an ecort was
made. without success, to burn brick
on the property Of the Owl Cigar Com
pany. An Alsatian cigarmaker employ
ed by the company called attention TO
| the close resemblance of this clay to
| the German ful1er's earth. AS a re-
suit of this suggestion, the clay was
tested and found to be fuller's earth
and the industry was developed. This
discovery caused considera BILE excite
ment, and supposed deposits of fuller's
earth were reported from a number of
states. The material in most Of these
deposits. however. was found to be of
no value as fuller's earth. Since the
discovery Florida has been the lead
ing state in production. During the
early history Of the industry fuller's
earth was produced in only two or
three states In 1897 and 1899 it was
New York. with a very small produc-
tion from Utah; in 1901 Arkansas was
| added TO the list. From 1904 to 1907
Arkansas was the second largest pro-
ducer. Shortly after its discovery in
Florida fuller's earth was found in
Georgia. but Georgia did not appear
a producer until 1907. when it was the
| third largest producing state: it rank
| ed second in 1909 and 1910 In 1904 AL
ALBANIA and Massachusetts reported
| production, in 1907 South Carolina and
Texas first appeared, and in 1908 Cal
| iforna entered the list.
The principal use of fuller's earth in
| this country is in bleaching, clarifying
| or filtering of fats. greases and oils.
To show the growth of the American
| industry it is only necessary to state
that from $500 tons in 1895 the pro-
| duction increased 10 33,4ss tons in 1909
| This was the maximum, the output for
| 1910 being ss4 tons less. Florida was
| the leading producing state in 1910,
furnishing 57.3s per cent Of the total
output. or 1852 short tons. The 9TH
