Uses of Barytes,

The greater part Of the barytes pro
duced in the United States is used as
a pigment in the manufacture of mixed
paints. 1t is also used in the manu-
facture of lithopone, a white pigment.
Other Uses for the mineral are in the
manufacture of rubber, wall paper, as
bestos cement and poker chips and in
tanning leather. A use of barytes re-
ported from Italy is in the manufac'
ture of gorgonzola cheese. The cheese
receives a covering in the form of a
thick heavy crust Of the fine ground
material, which has the property OF
affording just sufficient protection from
aeration.
Barytes occurs in veins as a gangue
Of metallic ores, also in veins in sand
stone and limestone or as a replace

Flynn has caused more fear in the
