It is generally estimated that a seven rotary kiln plant with a 
capacity of 1,200 barrels per day, working limestone and clay, can be 
put up for $300,000. 
In regard to the cost of producing cement a number of estimates 
have been published, several of which are given for what they are worth, 
but the writer declines to express any opinion of them. They should be 
accepted with caution, as they all tend to underestimate the actual cost.
