BENTONITE FIELDS IN STATE
MAY MEAN NEW INDUSTRY

Numerous deposits OF bentonite are
to be found in Powder River county
and are known to exist generally
throughout southeastern Montana,
and with the announcement that this
mineral clay has been given a new
commercial use it is quite likely that
local and outside interests will ex-
plot and develop these bentonite
fields to their full capacity.
A new use for bentonite has re-
Gently been discovered in the remov-
al OF ink from printing paper and 1t
is expected that when this process
has been fully developed it will re-
suit in a saving of nearly two-thirds
of the print paper now used. The
price of bentonite has recently ad-
vanced to $24 ton on the Chicago
market. Bentonite perhaps is better
known as Denver mul.
In Wyoming company has al
ready been organized to produce ben
tonite and northwest of Belle Four
che seven men are now employed in
the bentonite fields, using it in the

of housewives. who find that it leaves
the clothes much whittier and softer
than the common laundry soap.

But she reckoned without her

she was rounding them up Mr.. Mel

good his escape. He returned later
with gun, but NO bear was to be
found.
