SAY, Blubber Bay Lime, the best American
Lime, was used in laying the brick work for this
building. BIG BASIN has the exclusive agency
in the Klamath country for this lime." It does
better work for plaster and brick mortar. One
barrel of Blubber Bay Lime will equal a barrel
and a quarter of most other limes when used in
laying brick. It doesn't pop in plaster.
