MATERIAL RESOURCES. 
The most of the county is poorly supplied with building stone. This 
necessary article is imported from Logan county, where the Onondaga 
quarries at Middleburg afford a good stone, from the quarries in the 
Hamilton, at Marion, in Marion county, and from the same at Delaware. 
The quarries in the limestones of the Devonian, in the south-eastern 
part of the county, would probably be better patronized if better roads 
intersected that section, and if the quarries themselves were energet- 
ically developed. Not much lime is made in the county, the kiln of 
Thompson and Brown, in Mill Creek township, doing more than all 
others united. A kiln has recently been opened near Unionville, by 
Sager and Robinson, for burning the Waterlime, and at Plain City the 
beds of the Delhi stone are burned by William Lamb, the stone being 
hauled from Dublin, on the Scioto River. William Bales burns a little 
lime in the extreme western angle of Allen township, from loose pieces 
of limestone taken from gravel banks and from the bottom of Darby 
Creek. 
The Drift clays, however, are freely used in thu manufacture of red 
_ brick and tile. The following list embraces such brick and tile yards as 
were noticed in the survey of the county:
