Through a
Sieve Woven
Fines: Than
Silk

Raw materials of which portland
cement is made come out OF the
ground usually as solid rock.
They must first be crushed,
ground and reground until at least
IS per cent of the resulting powder
will shake throug h sieve that will
actually hold water.
This sieve is considerably finer
than the finest silk fabric. 1t has
200 hair-like bronze wires to the
inch. That means 10000 holes to
the square inch.
But the several crushings and
grindings necessary to reduce solid
rock to this extreme fneness are
only the beginning Of cement
making.
The powdered materials must then be sub
jected to intense heat for several hours in
huge rotary kilns. Here they are half melted
and become a substance much harder than
the original rock-clinker, it is called.
Then the clinker must be crushed and
ground until at least 78 per cent OF the result
ing product will pass through the sieve woven
finer than silk. This is portland c~ment
More than 80 power and fuel consuming
operations are necessary in cement making.
The electric power alone used in producing
barrel of portland cement would it pur-
chased at usual household rates, cost $1.70.
Few manufactured products go through
SO involved or complicated process as port
land cement And it sells for less per pound
than any comparable manufactured product

The C0untry's Annual
Autumnal Festival

The Dearborn independents
Now comes the season Of county
fairs. The old grounds are raked up,
the buildings whitewashed, the palings
Of the race track repainted; there's
vision Of pumpkins and fruits; there's
suggestion Of odors from cattle
pens and the loud carolinR Of poultry
sheds; there is the spirit Of that great
autumnal holiday Of the American
people-Fair Time.
Don't fail to 60 to the Fair. Wheth-
er 1t be pretentious state Fair or
just the county fair, don't fail to 20
and take the children. This counsel
is doubly emphasized II you happen
to be city folks. There is more down.
right country" in q fair than in a
summer vacation. City people get
the idea that they are supporting
grocery shelves and that their food
sprouts in tin cans. The can openers
has come to be one Of the principal
appurtenances Of urban housekeeping.
But at the fair you see the beginning
Of things, you meet the man or the
woman who had the production of
your food long before the grocer saw
1t. You begin to see beyond, the
counter to the fields.
And il you are country folks, don't
fail to go to the fair. Town and Coun-
ty depend on each other. Just as the
county has done more for the town
in the matter Of food, so the town
has done more for the county in the
matter Of labor-saving devices. The
farmer ought to put himself up to date
on the machinery which is ushering in
the era Of power-farming. And his
family ought to be permitted to see
that there il no obstacle to living the
finest kind Of a city life, 50 far as
comfort is concerned, on the farm.
The farm, plus all natural advantages,
minus all city discomforts, is the
dream Of millions Of celled-up citizens.
Go to the fair and re the yellow
honey and the golden butter, and the
prize embroidery, and the reddest
apples, the biggest potatoes, the
most succulent mslonS, the latest
steers, the wooliest sheep, theproud-
EFT ROSTERS, tie noblest horses, til
prettiest girls and the best people On
