Ing
The plan was built about ten years
ago and started out with the most
encouraging prospects. Hortshornc
and Tulsa people invested heavily
in the new enterprise. There APP
peared no reason why II should not
prove "A veritable bonanza. Cement
was produced equal 10 any In the
world. II Is said The industry
reached such prominence that
Hartshorne became known as the
cement city"
When In full blast the plant en-
ployed about I50 persons and Il
is said that seldom is found
such an ideal place for the
location OF a cement plant. One
OF the principal ingredients OF ce-
ment Is limestone and n ridge OF this
formation extends a mile either way
east and west OF the plant. Adjacent
10 the plant is the city lake from
which the cities OF Hartshorne and
Haileyvllle receive their splendid
water supply. The lake covers 1870
acres and ranges in depth up to 30
feet. Here also Is an unlimited sup
ply or shale which is another neces-
sary ingredient of cement. And
last but not least II is In the vicinity
~ the largest coal mines where fuel
can be obtained at minimum
price.
The closing down Of the plant was
traceable to wartime conditions.
While the plant has deteriorated
during rs idleness IL ~ estimated
that with additional capital II can
be made n paying institution and
that cement can be made as cheaply
and OF as good quality as anywhere.
considering the great demand for
the product II Is hoped that some
angel viii come TO its rescue and
take 1t from the hands OF the courts.
Some months ago II was advo-
Gated that the state should take
over the plant and manufa cture
cement with which TO promote a
thorough system of road-building IN
the state. IL was estimated that
thereby great saving could be
made and that IN this way Okla
homa might take front rank as a
good roads state.
II Is said that had not Industrial
handicaps overtaken the business
II would today be one Of Pittsburg
county's most flourlshing industries
and II will be a matter OF regret
should the plant be dismantled and
abandoned.
