sample of the chemical product now
being successfully made by the Louisa
Chemical company at Torchlight, five
miles south of Louisa. 1t is beauti-
ful white crystal mass, known as chlo-
rate Of sodium.
After many disappointments and a
long run of bad luck the plant at
Torchlight is turning out the chemi-
cal in large quantities. The only other
plant Of this kind in the United States
is at Bay City, Mich. The Torchlight
plant has the advantage of fine coal
supply right on the ground. The pow
er is one of the heavy items of expense
in this business and the Louisa Chem
ical company has that feature down to
the lowest basis.
This chemical is used in making high
explosives and also in the manufacture
OF matches. The price has increased
400 to 800 per cent, it is said, since the
war started. Salt is one of the chief in
gradients used in making chlorate of
sodium.
We are indebted to Mr.. r. C. Simp-
son, Superintendent OF the plant. for the
sample now in our office.
