The natural cement mills contributed an output of 232,076 

 barrels, against 193,975 barrels in 191 3. The value of the product 

 was $115,117 or about 50 cents a barrel at the mill. Most of this 

 cement was made in the Rosendale district of Ulster county by a 

 single manufacturer, but small amounts were contributed by three 

 plants in Onondaga county.

It is quite probable that the production of portland cement will 

 soon be over 6,000,000 barrels a year. Additional capacity is now 

 being provided in the plant of the Millen Portland Cement Co. at 

 Jamesville, which began operations in 1913. The company will 

 install a second kiln of the same capacity as the original one, which 

 was rated at 700 barrels a day. The mill of the Cayuga Lake 

 Cement Co., according to current reports, will also be enlarged. 

 A few years ago the Seaboard Portland Cement Co. erected a plant 

 below Catskill on the Hudson river, but never placed it in operation. 

 It has now been taken over by the Acme Cement Co., which has 

 made extensive changes and improvements with the view to enter- 

 ing upon active operations during the present season.
