of great annoyance to the owners of
the orange groves nearby because of
the clouds Of cement dust that settled
on the orange trees. The dust also
proved injurious to the employees OF

ing lawsuits led the owners to try to
abate the nuisance by installing an ap-
paratus called precipitation, which
preclpitatcs the fine dust by electrical
action before it leaves the exhaust
stacks. The recovered dust particles
were found to contain potash in the
form of crystnlliZed salts, product
that Is SO scarce and valuable Mt the

reach us from Germany, that the Riv-
erside company now devOtcs it's entire
