Natural cements differ from Portland
cements in the following important par
ticulars:
Natural eements are not made from
carefully prepared and finely ground ar.
tificial mixtures, but from natural lime
stone rock.
Natural cements are burned at low
er temperature than Portland, the mass
in the kiln never being heated high
enough even TO approach the fusing or
clinkcring point.
Natural cements. after burning and
grinding, are usually yellow to brown
il color and light in weight having
specific gravity of 81 to 3.l--that is
the cements weigh from 81 to 81 times
the weight of water. Portland cement
is commonly blue to gray in color and
heavier, its specific gravity ranging from
to 80.
Natural cements set more rapidly than
Portland cement, but do not attain so
high tensile strength.
Portland cement is a definitely product,
its percentage Of lime, silica, alumina,
and iron oxide varying only between mar
row limits, while brands of natural CO.
ments vary greatly in composition.
The future of the natural cement i'm
dustry, according to Mr.. Burehard, seems
to depend on means of improvement in
the manufacture of the cement, chemi-
cally or by better mechanical devise,
whereby it may be brought nearer to
the specifications for high grade Port
land cement. The decline in the use Of
natural cptnant hos bapp dita rripcfpallv
to the greater tensile strength of Port
land cement, At long periods, as shown
by many records, the two cements in
sand mortars show practically equal re.
suits. Natural cement has hydraulic
properties-th is, if properly prepared,
it will set under water.

Raising the Stone.


"The signal for the raising of the stone
having been given, the powerful engine
of the crane began its work and slow
ly but steadily the wire ropes quivered
to the strain. The huge block was seen
rising from the rock where the final
rough dressing had taken place, almost
at the foot of the perpen-
dicular wall OF granite which consti-
tutes the north face of the quarry 1t
was a steady pull of twelve minutes
tefore the stone had reached the level
of the quarry top. In those twelve min
tics the large group of workmen as well
as spectators from Kemnay, watched the
process from various points of vantage
at the top Of the quarry, in weather that
was dull and calm, but the rain had
ceased to fall. There was no sound save
the steady beat of the machinery and
the not unpleasant regular throb caused
by the exhaust steam which rose in
a white column from the engine house;
though one might also hear the sound
Of falling water far below from rills
Ieaping over parts of the rock into the
pool at the east side of the quarry. The
pump. which had been working all the
forenoon to keep the water from ac-
was stopped while the rails
ng of the statue-stone was in progress.
Then came the time when the crane ma

it turned round by the machinery, the
better plan would be to have the stone
and crane iib pulled round to the side
by means of manual labor. A great
number of the quarry workers willing

stout rope, which had been attached to
the tackle ON the stone, the workmen,
on the word of command being given by
MIR Lewis Kindlater, who directed them
in this part of the proceeding, pulled
the stone safely to the side in semi-cir-
