UTAH'S CLAY INDUSTRY Slih hre Cay Plant at fcjr T!X ,,LI:.?I S Sa't Lake City f &3&ti8 Vf-- ' - t : 74 . - - 1 By LESLIE SQUIRES General Manager Utah Fire Clay Company developments of the AMAZIXQ In Utah will be witnessed If the advances of the last 80 years continue at any-where near the same rate. The pioneer dug hla clay from the hillside, trampled It In layers, cut it while wet into blocks and let the sun do the rest. Houses built ot "adobe" brick still stand in towns and on farms, proving not only the skill of the early brick-maker-but the virtues of the clay they used. From brick to tile was a short step and, as facilities im-proved, clay products were multi-pile- Utah Is fortunate in having many kinds of clay. If the right sort is not available in one local-ity It Is pretty sure to be present In another. Six plants devoted exclusively to the manufacture of clay goods and silica refractories are now operat-ing in Utah, not to speak of small local brick plants scattered throughout the state. Tho major plants are located in Salt Lake City, Ogden, Provo, Murray and Smithfield. Their ever-growin- g list of products Includes vitrified salt-glaze- d sewer pipe and fittings, farm drain tile, silica brick, fire brick, assayers' clay crucibles- - and scorifiers, fire clay shapes for boilers, locomotives, steel mills and foundries, paving brick, high grade shala and fire clay face brick, com-mon brick, hollow building and partition blocks, clay shingles, wall coping, flue lining and many spe-cial designs. Manufacture and sale of the pro-ducts give employment to an aver-age of 300 men the year around with an annual payroll of about 1400,000. The processes call for the yearly production of about 100,000 tons of clay, to burn which, fuel to the value of $150,000 Is con-sumed. For supplies, power, freight, taxes and such expenseo not less than $250,000 is disbursed. Though Salt Lake valley smelt-ers "and widespread building con-struction constitute a steady mar-ket, sales of specialties beyond the borders of the state indicate the possibilities of expansion. Silica brick is shipped to surrounding states and orders for crucibles and scorifiers are received from all over the world. Production facilities are ample for a growing business. It Is esti-mated that, with all plants operat-ing a daily shift at full capacity, there would be manufac-tured each day enough facing and backing brick to construct 30 five-roo-cottages, pipe for ltt miles of sewer and tile for 4 miles of drains. Hollow blocks for smokestacks hundreds of feet tall and tile for silos are made from clay. Under-ground wiring Is facilitated by clay conduits, and the use of finer clays in the making of porcelain is beginning to be recognized in Utah. So far Utah county is the best known source ot ceramic material. Clay banks ot alluvial and glacial origin are-foun- In Cache, Weber, Morgan, Salt lake and Utah coun-ties. To date the production ot fire clay has been confined to Utah county, where the basic material is carboniferous. To make silica brick the manfacturer goes to the Cambrian formation in Juab coun-ty. Brickmaklng in 1937 presents an astonishing contrast to the almost primitive methods of 1857. Des-cribing a typical operation of today the manager of a large brick com-pany says: "Starting at clay beds averaging 15 feet In thickness, ten teams scrape up the clay and lay It on platforms. Thence it Is hauled by electric trains to mixing and pul-verizing sheds. From there It is conveyed by endless belts to the bins, where the right amount of moisture is added. The next step Is working the clay .through the pug' mills. These are heavy cast iron mixing machines which knead the clay to the proper consistency for molding into what are called 'green brick'. Attached to the end of the pug mills are forms, or dies, out of which come bricks of the correct length and height. "To make pressed brick the clay is handled in much the same man-ner, except as it comes out of the mixing bins It Is fed into massive presses. From the presses the brick is conveyed to the kilns for burning. A fire of powdered coal is started at one end and carried the entire length by forced draft. When heated to 2200 degrees the brick are allowed to cool. Wagons are lowered Into the kiln by an electric crane, loaded and set out-- , side, to be hauled by teams to their destination." Ever since the day of the humble adobe, Utah has been a "brick state". Few parts of the Union have a higher percentage of brick structures. Steel mills and sugar factories need refractory brick for thoir furnaces; municipalities, pipe for their sanitary sewers; drain-age districts, tile to reclaim their lands. Thus one industry, fosters many others. An investment of about $2,245,000, it is estimated, is represented by the plants in Utah devoted exclusively to the manu-facture of clay goods and silica re-fractories.

One of them, a royal palm, grows In front of the ninth green of the De Leon Springs golf course, Its foliage frequently catching balls pitched toward the green. That happened to John II. Fisher of Chicago the first time he steppeu on the De Leon Springs links to try for his usual 70. The ball lodged In the tree and only the gift of a 59-ce- dollar persuaded his colored caddie to retrieve It, Climbing to the top of the tree the caddie gave one vigorous shake and Fisher's ball and 870 other golf balls dropped. It was the first time the royal palm had been shaken. The golfer was astonished to dis-cover that thirteen of the balls had his name, printed on them. "It was my initial visit to Flori-da, all right, but that was no rea-son my entire name should have been printed on the balls," Fisher said later. "I didn't discover why until four months afterwards. "I play the Tarn o'Shanter courso at Chicago. On the fifth tee I In-variably slice my drive, frequently losing the ball. Well, F began to analyze my shots off that tee, em-ploying a compass and other re-search equipment. "And I dlscorered a moat Inter-esting thing every one of my sliced shots off that fifth tee moved In a curving line directly toward Da Leon Springs from Chicago. CI Western Newtpapr Unloa. |
