The marble is bluish to perfectly white and very hard. Two miles -southwest from the property of the North Carolina Bessemer company, or-, three to three and a half miles from Sevier, on land belonging' to the estate of the late Colonel Yancy, the forma tion is nearer a limestone than a marble. - .This ' material has been burned, and it is said to make a strong lime, but it is hard to burn. These limestone and marble depos its offer four possible forms of de velopment: 1. As a building stone; 2, as a source of lime for building purposes; 3, as a source of lime for agricultural purposes; 4, as crushed rock for concrete work, for ballast, and for macadamizing roads. The stone breaks with sharp edges and it seems to me is very suitable for concrete work. Water-power could probably be developed in the vicinity and power transmitted to the quarry- so that crusher, drills, channellers. etc, could be operated by electricity. : f v Some iron ore has beerTfound in connection with the nrirble, one Headquarters for FEED STUFF BmildSeg Materia Buffaloed Mewott NEAR DEPOT.
