Seite 270 - The troughing has a slight pitch, commonly about one inch in 20 feet, but the amount depends on the kaolin, and whether the contained sand is fine or coarse. If the kaolin is very fine, and settles slowly, the pitch need not be so great, and vice versa. A large quantity of very coarse sand in the kaolin is a nuisance, as it clogs up the log washer and the upper end of the trough more quickly, causing much labor to keep them clean.

As to the characters of these three, quartz is nearly infusible, nonplastic, has very little shrinkage, and is of low tensile strength ; feldspar is easily fusible, and alone has little plasticity ~T kaolinite is plastic and quite refractory, but shrinks...
