GliiHieiiift Last year thirty million tons of raw materials were led into the portland ce ment mills of this country, and the finished product came out in approximately 400 million sacks. To han dle all this material through the long process of pulver izing, bummg, and pulver izing again, with such care that a handful taken at ran dom from any sack would meet the exacting specifica tions of leading engineering . societies and the Govern ment that was the manu . f acturers' task. Materials must be handled in great quantitiel in a cement plants other wise the cost (les now per pound than that of any comparable man ufamired product) would be pro , hibitive. The product must be uni form and oi nigh quality, lor the permanence of great ftrucrures, and even life itself, depends on it. This great task it simplified by fifty years of study and experi mentation in quality control. But it still calls for constant routine testing by highly skilled artisans and chemists. Take the cement plant chemist, for instance. Workmen guided by his instructions proportion the various raw materials a ton or more at a time. The tests which he makes to determine these pro , portions must be so precise that the glass enclosed balance used for weighing is accurate to the ' nearest ten thousandth of a gram. There are 454 grams to the pound. -Such a balance will quickly detect the difference in weight of a piece -of paper before and after you haye written your name on it ' Few industrial products require as great care in their manufacture as portland cement and few get it so uniformly. The guiding hand of the chemist ! and his assistants is seen and felt at every point in the process of ' manufacture in the quarry or pit where the raw materials are obtained in thegrindingdepart- ment where the raw materials are proportioned, mixed and ground ' in the burning department where under intense heat the chemical transposition takes place in the finished grinding depart ment where the raw materials now transformed into clinker be ' come the fine powder we call Portland cement Some tests are made every 1 5 rnin-' utes some hourly. Some samples 1 ( are being taken continuously with . . automatic samplers others are snatched 'at random from the conveyors. Whatever experience -dictates is necessary to insure uni formity and high quality that is done.
