LIMESTONE FIELD State Geologist Calls Attention to Opportunity for Operation of Profitable Plants. Citing the lapid development in the j ground limestone industry, which has | increased to a vast extent owing to 1 'he use of limestone for agricultural purposes. Professor S. W. McCallie. State Geologist, in his quarterly re- ; port to the advisory hoard of the State theological Survey, strongly ad - | voented a widening of this field of endeavor in the State. ‘ Formerly quick or hydrated lime was used for agricultural purpoaes. but at present ground limestone has largely taken its place,” the report states. This product is sol$ at $2.50 per ton Plants such as the Portland Ce ment Company at Portland, the Whitestone Marble Company at VVhltestone, the Southern Stone and Marble Company, the Art Marble Company and many others, never can meet file demands upon them for this product. “The limestone contains in many instances about 14 per cent Of car bonate of magnesia. It is ground to a fineness that 90 per cent passes through a 100-mesh sieve. “The total output of these several plants, however, is not more than TOO tons a day. Estimating two tons to the acre, this would supply but 105,000 acres, approximately one-hundredth of the improved lands in Georgia. ‘‘The prospects for an increase in the use of ground limestone, there fore, is encouraging. ‘‘To meet this increased demand more plants should be established. South Georgia affords the best field for the newcomers. This region con tains an abundance of suitable lime stone, and the very great need of the material in that section of the State would afford an excellent market.” WHEN CROUP COMES TREAT EXTERNALLY The old system of dosing delicate li% le stomachs with nauseous drugs hiY1 opium syrups is wrong and harmful Try the external treat ment -Vick’s “Vap-O-Rub” Croup and Pneumonia Salve.
