PENNSYLVANIA IS BIG
PRODUCER OF CEMENT

The following report on cement
from the United States bureau of sta
tistics will be read with interest by
local cement users:
Cement production, consumption,
and expectation are showing remark
able increases in the statistical rec
ords of the United States, as shown
by figures of the bureau of statis-
tics, department of commerce and
labor, while the importation shows
an equally remarkable decline. The
quantity produced, according to fig
ures of the bureau of statistics pre-
scented in the Statistical Abstract, just
issued, has grown from 100000
barrels in 1890 to 100000 million
in 1900 and 100000 in 1910, the
value having increased from S6,00O,-
600 in 1890 to s13,000.000 in 1900,
and $50, 100000 in 1910. Meantime
the figures of imports and exports
show equally striking changes. The
quantity of cement exported has
grown from 76,055 barrels (of $50
pounds) in 1900, valued at 1853, 1862.
to 2,971,474 barrels in 1911, valued
at S4,349,290 while the figures for
the nine months ending with March
indicate that the total for the fiscal
year 1912 will consid derably exceed,
in both quantity and value, that of
1911, and will probably amount TO
more than 100000 barrels, or 40
times as much in 1912 as in 1900,
with value of more than $4,000, 900,
as against $163, 1872 in 1900. On the

ent in nearly the proper proportions
is also much used. The product OF
the burning is a semifused mass call
ed ''clinker," which is finely ground
and after such grinding, the powder

ter.
Pennsylvania is by far the largest
producer of cement, about one-third
of the 7S,000,000 barrels produced in
1910 being the product of that state,
the states following next in order of
production being Indiana, Kansas, Ill
inois. Missouri, New Jersey. Michigan
and New York.
The cement industry, according to
the census of 1910, showed number
of establishments, 1876; capital in
vested, $1S7 .39S,000; number of
wage earners, 26,775; wages paid
S15,320, 1000; cost of materials. s29,-

rials) S33 ,S61,0 900.
Panama now takes over 65%o OF
the cement exported from the United
States. the total exported thereto in
the fiscal year 1911 having been
nearly 100000 barrels out of a
total of 100000. while various
countries of North and South Ameri-
ca took most of the remainder. Cuba
was credited with $4,000 barrels;
Mexico. 1914, 900: and Canada. l 53,-

number. appear in the list of desti-
nations. but in no case did the total

import side the decline has been as
rapid and striking as the increase
on the export side. The quantity of
cement imported in 1907 was / 1,123,-
763,604 pounds, but by 1911 had fall
en- to 93,297.749 pounds. and in the
fiscal year 1912 seems likely to fall
below 50,000,000 pounds. or less
than one-twentieth of the imports of
1907.
The United States is apparently
leading the world in the production
of cement for industrial purposes.
The latest figures available in the
Bureau of Statistics with reference to
production in various parts of the
world places the production in Ger
many at about 30,000,000 barrels, or
considerably less than half that of
the United States. and that of Eng
land slightly less than 20,000,000
barrels OF the 100000 barrels
produced in the United States in 1910
a very large proportion is consumed
at home, the exports for that year
being but about 2 X million barrels.
The total consumption in the United
State, according to the best available
figures, has grown from about 20.-
600 900 barrels in 1900 to IA 900, 900
in 1910.
The cement in question, which is
chiefly of the class designated as
Portland" cement. is. according to a
statement by the Geological Survey,
produced by burning a finely ground
artificial mixture containing essenti-
ally lime, silica, alumina, and iron
oxide in certain definite proportions.
This combination is made by mixing
limestone or mari with clay or shale,
or by substituting low magnesia blast
furnace Stag for the clay or shale.
The clay, or its equivalent, furnishes

George P. Wilmington and l.

Gotham and one or two prominent citizens of Buckvllle arose from their seats in the audience and demanded Of the verbal bolligerents that their personalities cease.
 The occasion was the second jo'nt meeting of the campaign for prose outing attorney in this district The opening had taken place at Mt Ida, the county seat of Montgomery coam iy. just two weeks before and had been notable for the criticism of the official record of J F. Wood which George ?. Wilmington heralded us the first speaker of the day on that occasion.
