BREAKS THE RECORD
Production of Bauxite and Alu-
mlnum Greatly Increased.
Growth Of Aluminium Industry Shown
by Fact That Production In 1884
Was 100 Pounds, and In 1900
So, 100000 Pounds.

Washington.-The production Of
pauxite and the consumption OF slu'
minum in the United States in 1914
were the largest ever recorded. The
report prepared by w. G. Phalen OF
the United States geological survey
shows an output Of 21s,31s long tons
Of bauxite, valued at $1,o69, 1874, in
1914, against 210,241 long tons, valued
at $9s7,6ss, in 1918. The states which
produced bauxite in 1914 were Ala.
bama, Arkansas, Georgia and Tennes,
see. Arkansas produced more than 80
par cent Of the output and the output
was larger in 1914 than in 1918. The
production Of Georgia, which held sec.
ond place in both years, and of Ala.
bama and Tennessee was considerably
less in 1914 than It was In 1918. The
imports Of bauxite amounted to a.
"a long tons, valued at $se,5o0. OF
S;8sS tons more than In 1918.
Bauxite Is used in the production
Of metallic aluminium and in the manu-.
facture Of aluminium salts, Of bauxite
bricks, and of alundum. The use OF
bauxite in the production OF the metal
aluminium is by far the most i'm,
portant one, and the largest part OF
the baux1te produced in Arkansas. a.
well as most Of that imported. is used
in the aluminium industry.

especially efficient for the grinding Of
steel forgings and castings. Only the
best grades of bauxite are used in the
manufacture of such chemicals as
alum. alumipum sulphate and alumni
mum salts, as freedom from oxide of
iron ia desirable for such purposes.
Another use to which bauxite Ia
adapted Is in the manufacture of cal.
cium illuminate, which gives q quick
set to plaster compositions.
The quantity Of aluminium consumed
in the United States in 1914 was
79,129,000 pounds, against 70. ,000
pounds in 1913 and 85,607,00o pounds
In 1912. The growth of the industry
10 shown by the fact that the produo.
ton was $50 pounds in 1884, $4,000
pounds In 1894, and 100000 pounds
In 1904.
The value of the exports Of alumni
mum and of manufactures Of alumni
nun amounted to $1,646 $40 in 1914
rs compared with $3.50. 094 in 1918.

or other compound. The only source
of the metal so far commercially util.
ized is bauxite, an ore that contains
50 to 60 per cent Of alumina (the
common o1ide), which corresponds to
a metallic content of 26.5 to 31,s per

The consumption Of aluminium ia
constantly expanding, and aside from
its use In the manufacture Of cooking
utensils, it is being employed in thu
construction Of automobile castings
and Of welded tanks used by brewers,
preserve manufacturers, and fat rem

important in their adaptabili1y and
