The demand for volcanic ash and
its kindred abrasves, tripoli and in
tusorial earth, is steadily growing. In
1900 the production of these mater
ials was valued at $4,000. while the
production this year will exceed
100000 in value.
AT present almost all Of the vol
ranic ash placed upon the market
comes from Nebraska complete
chemical analysis Of samples taken
from different deposits In Nebraska
md Oklahoma, shows in most cases
that the deposits in Oklahoma con-
tain less silt and other impurities
han those in Nebraska and therefore
should be more desirable. Since the
'olcauic ash in Oklahoma occurs in
ineNhaustiyc quantities accessible to
HiIruad transportation there is no
reason why oklahoma should not at
"ost supply half of the market for
volcanic ash.
A bulletin is being written on the
volcanic ash and tripoli of Oklahoma
and should be ready for distribution
soon. It will treat in detail the loca-
