Blubber B.y Hydrated Lime \(/allboard Pioneering in

Manufactured in several forms to meet the general and special requirements of building, agricult,rr. ,.rd industry in California, Blubber Bay Lime, distributed by The Kings- ley Company, Pier 17, San Francisco, is a wood burned _product of exceptional purity.

One of these forms is their builders and chemical hydrated lime, which is a white hydrate of extreme purity and fineness. The total impurities including magnesium hydrate seldom exceed one-half of one per cent. The calcium hydrate content is almost constant at 98 per cent.

The fineness and purity of Blubber Bay hydrated lime makes it ideal for use rvith arsenate of lead and other chemicals as a spreader agent, in the manufacture of ammonia, water softening, bleaching compounds, and as a general purifying agent in heavy liquids.

It meets A.S.T.M. and Federal specifications. When used in Portland cement mortars it improves both plas- ticity and adhesion. The density of all cement mortars and concrete is improved by the addition of 1O to 2O per cent of Blubber Bay hydrate to the weight of cement used.

It is highly recommended for making whitewash.

Blubber Bay chemical hydrated lime is a new product, designed especially for those chemical uses wherein extreme fineness is necessary, ancl for the preparation of casein and other plywood glues, nicotine, lead arsena.te, copper sulphate and many otl-rer fruit and vegetable sprays requiring a spreader agent.

The total absence of grit makes chemical hydrate ideal for the treatment of mineral oils and lubricating greases.

The Kingsley Cgmpany has rvarehouses at 9ffi Seventh Street, San Francisco; Grove Street Dock, Oakland, and Paramount Seed Company, Lincoln and Sonora Streets, Stockton.

H. L. I{unter is manager of the company, and R. M. James calls on the trade throughout Northern California.

Los Angeles

W. F. Montgomery, pioneer Southern California lumberman, writes in giving some interesting information on the introduction of wallboard in the Los Angeles market. He states that he believes the Montgomery & Mullin Lumber Company, of which he and the late John F. Mullin rvere the owners, can rightly claim to have been the pioneers in the wallboard industry in Los Angeles.

.- Along abgut 1902, Mr. Montgomery says a young E,ng- lishman called at their office, then at Seventh ind Cnocker streets, Los Angeles, and asked them to take the agency for Beaver board in Southern California and ArizonJ. When they demurred he said he rvould demonstrate the demand for-the board by going down to San Diego and selling a carload there. The young Englishman returned in triuriph with an order. We had no excuse for further refusal and for several years enjoyed the exclusive sale of Beaver board with a commission on all sales they made in outside sections.--Finally the Beaver board people changed their pol- icy selling to anyone who would brder a carl,oad and their agreement was ended.

At the same_time, Mr. Montgomery says, they were selling a plaster board called "Bistrvali," made iir Alameda. and which factory he visited.

Mr. Montgomery cites interesting facts on the early beginnings _ of th_e_ wallboard operations founded by john Schumacher. He states that Mr. Schumacher hid been a visitor to their office trying to interest them in a wallboard for use in bath rooms. Mr. Schumacher, he says, started to make the wallboard on his own in a small building near Slauson Avenue which became the nucleus of the large organization he .built up and which the Schumacher interests sold several years ago. When he first started the Montgoqe_{y & Mullin Lumber Co. agreed to supply him with building materials, and in return take their-oav in the new product. For a short time they acted u. aij- tributors for the new l.vallboard. Not long after he got his factory going, Mr. Schumacher came to them rvith- a written proposition to sell a half interest in the business for'$5,000, which document Mr. Montgomery says he still has in his possession, but for several reasoni thev did not "ffi|.t3:i;f5l'n". *", a remarkable man, Mr. Montgonrery declares, being at the same time an inventor, fina-ncier and executive. Investing and perfecting a process, and starting and building up an induitry wittr-tittti or no capi- tal sho-ws that he possessed ability of high order, and we were glad to see the success made-by Mr.-Schumacher and his sons in building up an industry in which we had a small share in launching.

. Th" $9ntgo-ety & Mullin Lumber Co, were pioneers in introducing plaster board to the Hawaiian Islands. Mr. l\{orrtgomery selling two carloads at different times, one of Schumacher wall board and the other made by Orville Routt's lock lath plant in which X{r. Montgomeiy had a small interest.

Mr. Montgomery said he would like to advise anv in- quiring friends that although past the scriptural age of retirement he is still going strong, living at Laguna Eeach in the summer and spending hil rvintels in Eonolulu to which delightful_spot he_ recintly sailed to spend his sixteenth season. He says that he is still functionins as preside_1! o! the Hollywood Lumber Company, whith ii not selling lumber-but _collecting rentals froh buildings it owns and leases on its old vard site.
