Ingenious plan taps Louisiana sulphur wealth
Blowin of the Louisiana state experiment station credits a northern man with solving a sulphur mining problem. He sank nested tubes through quicksand and used superheated steam to melt and surface 98 percent pure sulphur, draining it to a pond to solidify. The method, he says, could transform the sulfur industry and make the owner wealthy.
