Large Sulphur Reserves.

Practically every industry requires
the use of sulphur in some form, and
the United States, to be industriallr in
dependent, must therefore have an ade
quate supply. The record of the last
three years, according to a recent
statement issued by the United States
geological survey, department of the in
terror, shows that this country has
enough sulphur to support its present
industries, even under the requirements
imposed by the drain Of vast foreign
demand.
| The two main sources of sulphur are
the native mineral and the sulphides.
| Each year at least 100000 long tons of
native sulphur and .2j0,000 long tons
of sulphides are used, mostly for max
| ing sulphuric acid.
