BRICKS TO BE MADE HERE A New Kiln Is Built to Test Clays Sent to the University from all Parts of the State To provide facilities for testing the clays of the state, a large brick kiln has been constructed back of Haworth Hall. Tests are being made in connection with the state geological survey to find some economical value for the clays that are now considered of no use. Burning of material in the kiln requires from 36 hours to one week's time of continuous heat. The length of time required depends on the amount of carboniferous matter the kiln has been filled with and requires the most time for burning on account of the large amount of vegetable matter, The kiln is constructed of fire brick braced with iron to prevent bulging of the arches. It has an inside capacity of 27 cubic feet and is capable of testing anything from brick to glazed pottery and ornamental. The kiln is constructed with a grate so either coal or gas may be used for heating and a constant temperature can be maintained at all times. You'll Like Our Bakery Goods Once tried, always used.
