 probable factor in the industry during 1910. 



The output of natural cement showed a continuance of the 

 decline Avhich has been underway since the beginning of the 

 present decade. The total was 549,364 barrels valued at 

 $361,605, against 623,588 barrels valued at $441,136 in 1908. 

 Three companies in the Rosendale district contributed 487,864 

 barrels to the total ; Onondaga and Erie counties contributed 

 the remainder.
