LOUISIANA HAS

0F SULPHUR
STATE ALSO IMPORTANT OIL.
GAS AND ROCK SALT
PRODUCER.

In one respect Louisiana stands
pre-eminently IN the lead Of the
states of the Union-that is, in the
production of sulphur. In 1904 the
Frasch process for the recovery of
sulphur from beds underlying a
heavy cover Of quicksand was put
into operation by the United Sulphur
company Of Sulphur City, near Lake
Charles, in Calcasieu parish Since
that time approximately 2.3S0,000 tons
of refined sulphur have been recov-
cred from the Louisiana deposits.
Prior to 1904 the only domestic
source Of sulphur in quantity in the
United States was pyrite, from which
sulphuric acid is made direct, and
nearly all of the sulphur used was
| imported from Sicily. AT the present
time the domestic output of refined
sulphur, except from Louisiana, is a
/ negligible quantity, and the quantity
and value of the imports are insig-
nificant compared with what they
We're ten years ago In 1903, one
year before the production of sulphur
in Louisiana began TO exert an influ
ence upon the market, the imports o.
? sulphur into the United States
amounted to 191. O33 long tons, value,
at S3.7O9 $50. In 1912 the imports
were 29, 1927 tons, valued at $583,974
