possible methods Of recovering gyp-

Gypsum. from which is manu-

When found under earth il IL known
as rock gypsum, and is taken out By
mining or quarrying. When found
on the surface it IL known as gyp-
site. or gypsum earth, and simply is
plowed up and hauled TO the manu-
factory.
There are hundreds Of gypsum
producing properties in the world.
At many Of them the gypsum - re-

ways. But the plant here Is the only
enc in the world to mine, quarry and
gather the gypsum.
The gypsite gathered for the Uni
