FALLS CITY LIME
PLANT UNDER WAY
The Marsh Construction Co., of
Spokane, Wn., has a crew of 15
men at work opening up the quar.
ry and installing crushing machin
ery on the Oregon Lime Products
Co. property on the cement spur
near Falls City. The Oregon Lime
Products Co. has entered into' a
contract with the concern to in
stall and operate a lime plant.
It is 'expected that the plant
will be in operation within 30 to
60 days and a erew of SO men
will be employed, according to Ar
nold Muck of Falls City. , ,
Opens Quarry
The opening up of the lime de
posit has been a project of A. A.
Mock, Falls City business man,
for the past three years or more.
The company was organised some
time ago, but had never opened
up the quarry, although a spar
trackage was put 1b several
months ago. Mr. Muck and Dr.
W. L. Pemberton of Dallas are the
principal stockholders in the Ore
gon Lime Products Co., the former
being president and the latter,
secretary-treasurer.
Under the present plan the com
pany will handle the Bales end of
the work and the Marsh Construc
tion Co. will take out the rock
and grind it. It is planned to man
ufacture agricultural lime and
chicken grit. An outpuUof 300 or
400 cars is anticipated for the first
year of operations. Sales activities
will begin within 30 days in order
to have orders to handle the out
put after operations begin.
Mr. Muck underwent a serious
operation at the Dallas hospital
Saturday and has been in a very
critical condition since.
Lime Deposit Good
The lime deposit, which Is sim
ilar in nature to the rock taken
out nearby by the Oregon-Portland
Cement Co., for use In manu
facture of cement at its Oswego
plant, has been tested by the
state and various attempts were
made to have this supply used to
operate the penitentiary lime
plant.
The use of agricultural lime has
been increasing by leaps and
bounds, and an almost unlimited
market is expected for it In the
Willamette valley.
