  shipped 
  to 
  several 
  factories 
  in 
  l^ew 
  York 
  and 
  neighboring 
  states. 
  

   A 
  second 
  mine 
  of 
  the 
  same 
  material 
  has 
  been 
  opened 
  on 
  an 
  adjoin- 
  

   ing 
  farm 
  by 
  M. 
  A. 
  Penfield. 
  The 
  'New 
  York 
  material 
  has 
  thus 
  far 
  

   not 
  been 
  used 
  for 
  clarifying 
  purposes, 
  and 
  it 
  is 
  doubtful 
  if 
  the 
  

   deposit 
  from 
  McOonnellsville 
  will 
  prove 
  to 
  be 
  suitable 
  for 
  this 
  

   purpose. 
  

  

  Owing 
  to 
  its 
  absorptive 
  properties 
  fullers' 
  earth 
  has 
  also 
  found 
  

   an 
  application 
  in 
  the 
  manufacture 
  of 
  certain 
  soaps, 
  which 
  are 
  

   adapted 
  for 
  removing 
  grease 
  and 
  printers 
  ink 
  stains. 
  

  

  The 
  composition 
  of 
  both 
  English 
  and 
  Americaji 
  fullers' 
  earth 
  

   can 
  be 
  seen 
  from 
  the 
  following 
  table.
