PRESSES BUILDING
STONES LIKE IRON
New Process Which Inventor
Claims Will RevOlutiOnize
Structural Industry.

With a patent on cast stone process
that according to the inventor, will rev.
olutionize building, w P. Butler is in
Salt Lake demonstrating his invention
and seeking to interest local capital In
establishing a plant in this city. But
turned out under his process is superior
to the highest grade OF building stone OF
any other lime stone product and can
produce at little more than half the
price. His process does away with stone
cutters and carvers.
According to Butler. there are millions
Of tons Of rock In the canyons near Salt
Lake that will make the very best OF
stone under his process. He says the
harder the character of stone the better
the finished product will be.
Buffers process consists in grinding
the stones to a powder and mixing IL with
cement at a ratio OF about four parts
stone to one part cement. and that prod
uct with enough water to make q liquid
thin enough to pour Molds are made
In wet sand on the same order that iron
casting is done The liquid "rock'' Is
poured into the sand molds and within
two to three days sets and is better
material than the original stone, as 1T is
uniform In composition with no defects
OF any kind. according to the inventor.
Wooden mods are buried in sand and
then removed The imprints of the rough
surface of the stone used in trimming
buildings are left In the sand and are
filled with the material. By adding Ger
tain proportions Of parafflne and ground
soapstone to the sand a perfectly smooth
surface is obtained. thus assuring a
smooth, even surface to the block cast.

The city school board will close the
contest of architects for plans for the
high school building Monday. Rapid
steps, it is said, will be taken follow
ing the opening of the bids to get
work started on the building The
contest has been entered into by a
number of local architects. AS there
is some little routine to be gone through
with in the way Of advertising fol
bids and the like, at best it will be
along in the late spring before the
first shovelful of dirt can be turned on
actual work For that reason it is said
the board will not subject the building
TO longer delays than are absolutely
necessary.
Building work already under contract
will offer employment to large mum

lines, such as the disposal of building
lots in the new suburban propositions
and in some cases the erecting OF
homes.
