It details massive kilns and the enormous energy needed, noting an output of about two barrels per hour per kiln and that 200 pounds of specially prepared coal are used to produce one barrel of cement weighing 876 pounds.
An 1922 survey underscores cement as a cornerstone of construction and U S manufacturing. It notes rising cement demand, falling prices in recent years, and the role of labor, coal, and limestone costs in shaping pricing. The article links cement industry health to broader economic recovery and domestic prosperity.
