The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1917-10-17

Several years passed from the time
this discovery was reported before
any attempt was made to develop
these asbestos deposits. In the mean
time, the property on which they
were located had been acquired and
was improved for plantation pur-
poses. Coconut and mulberry trees
were planted in considerable num-
bers and sawmill wa crcctcd--the
supply Of logs being furnished part
ly by timber growing on the property
Itself and in part by timber con-
cession adjoining.
About six months ago the property
changed hands and passed to the con-
troll Of Messrs. C. D. Squires, John
Northcott and Chas. S. Banks, the
last named having for a number of
years been connected with the bureau
of science, Manila, and the other two
being prominent business men Of
Manila. These gentlemen are form
ing a corporation to be known as the
Dungeon Dungeon Company, which will
continue the development Of the
coconut and silkworm industry, but
will give special attention to opening
up the asbestos deposits and making
| this material available for market.
The company owns five hundred
hectares of land and has a timber
concession of Eighteen hundred hcc-
tares in addition. Its property is
located near Laoag, Ilocos Nortc,
about two and onc-half miles inland
from the sea on stream that is
navigable for small craft. There are
in the neighborhood of five thousand
coconut trees from three to four
years old, and three thousand null
! berr" trees ranging in age from three
to five years. Arrangements have
been made with a Japanese familiar
wi tn the silkworm industry who will
take charge of and develop that
branch of the companys activities.
There is a stadily increasing de-
mand for asbestos throughout the
world, and the United States espcci-
ally is q large consumer. In 1916
that country imported 103,715 tons,
valued at over three million dollars.
Towards the latter part of the year,
the import price of asbestos in the
United States reached close to forty
dollars, gold, per ton.
AS the, material can be extracted
at comparatively small expense and
with water transportation facilities
that the location of the deposits
makes available, asbestos from this
property can be laid down in Manila
at very low cost, and when condi-
tions become normal after the war,
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1917-10-17

all that can be produced here should
find ready market in the United
States.
Technical reports made by DR..
Smith a.. others are highly favor
able as to the form of the deposits
and the quality of the material. Mica
and tale appear in considerable guam
titles in the same localities as the
asbestos.
The following is an extract of a
report recently made by one who is
conversant with the property:
Several new outcroppings of su-
ipcrior quality of asbestos have been
located during the year 1916, and at
places that were not even in condi-
tion to be prospected at the time that
DR.. Smith made his observations.
"It has been noted by those who
have dug sufficiently INTO these out
groupings that the quality of the
asbestos fiber grows better ami bet
ter the farther one gets from the sur
face, and in no single instance, al
, though many shafts have been driven
to distance of 10 to 20 meters, has
there been a tendency for the mineral
to peter out; in fact, many of the
veins increase materially in extent
the farther in they are explored
"As has been stated above, new de-
posits of asbestos have been found at
points SO far removed from the origi-
nal ones seen by DR.. Smith, and at
points between these so nearly in
similar geological formation, that it
/ is to be presumed that chain Of
this material extends for consider
able distance across the Dungeon
! Dungeon estate.
| about thirty tons Of fibrous asbcs-
tos have now been taken out and
merely await transportation to the
Manila market, but the holes where
! it was taken appear, like the his
/ historic widows cruise, incxhaustible." -

Bible-quOting Is all the more effec-
tive nowadays, as an influence in lit
erature or OratOry-at least when 1t is
pat and clever-for the fact that fewer
people know the book than formerly. In
spite Of the Sunday schools and the In
ternational Lessons, familiarity with
the Bible is becoming rarer.
Boys and girls go to Sunday school
all through their childhood and some
how come out Of 1t unable to quote a
line from the Bible. And yet they are
sufficiently familiar with 1t to be able
to feel the force OF quotation or an
illustration, and the rare individual
who knows his way through the pages
of the book can easily catch their sym
patty.
Why should almost universal instruc-
ton in the Bible result I'm genera
ton that does not know the book? Why
should rote lessons on Hamlet" and

ton hate Shakespeare? Why does

are the set words of the wise as OdiOus
