Excerpt from The University Geological Survey of Kansas, Vol. 5: Conducted Under Authority of the Board of Regents of the University of Kansas, as Authorized by Special Legislation; Special Report on Gypsum and Gypsum Cement Plasters Again, the economic importance of these same gypsum de posits is so great that it takes no prophetic mind to see in them for the future one of the greatest natural resources within the whole domain of our state. Everything indicates that the de mand for gypsum and the various products manufactured from it will steadily increase rather than decrease. It is now generally admitted that gypsum cement plaster in its various forms is rap idly replacing almost all other kinds of plaster formerly used as constructive materials. Its increased production during the last decade is little short of marvelous, portending for the future a still greater increase, particularly should the revival of business now assured include a great extension of building and other constructional activity.
