The Whirlpool Classifier .—A device is described by which the impurity in a clay can be separated more efficiently than is possible by simple elutriation processes. Washing Plants .—A semi‐commercial plant used to wash 1000‐lb. samples is described, together with a suggested plan for a commercial plant. Beneficiation of Georgia Clays .—Results obtained on several Georgia sedimentary clays are given. The washed clays are reported free from grit and material producing specks in burned ware as well as improved in color, both in the raw and burned state.
