ITEM 2:  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCE

         Cash flows from continuing operating activities increased to
         $1,222,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1995, from $329,000
         for the three months ended March 31, 1994.

         In February 1994, the Company fixed the interest rate on its
         $8,000,000 Term Loan at 7.95% per annum for three years.

         The Company has completed the feasibility studies for a new kiln at
         the Arkansas plant and has decided to proceed with this project.  The
         new kiln will complement the existing shaft kiln by allowing the
         Company to expand its customer base.  The lime produced on the new
         kiln will meet the specific chemical needs of customers the Company
         currently is unable to serve.  The project is expected to cost
         approximately $5-6 million.

         RESULTS OF OPERATION

         Revenues increased from $6,763,000 in the first quarter of 1994 to
         $8,649,000 in the first quarter of 1995, an increase of $1,886,000 or
         28%.  This resulted from a 32% increase in sales volume and a 4%
         decrease in prices.

         The Company's gross profit was $1,993,000 in the first quarter of
         1995, compared to $709,000 in the first quarter of 1994, a 181%
         increase.  Gross profit margin for the first quarter of 1995 increased
         to 23.0%, from 10.5% in 1994.  The higher gross profit was attributed
         to increased sales volume, improved production efficiencies, and a
         mild winter.  In addition, gross profit was enhanced by lower
         depreciation costs and no amortization in this quarter of cost in
         excess of net assets acquired.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) increased 5% to
         $1,292,000 in the first quarter of 1995, compared to $1,234,000 in the
         first quarter of 1994.  However, SG&A as a percentage of sales
         decreased to 14.9% from 18.3% a year ago.

         Interest expense decreased by $37,000 in the first quarter of 1995,
         compared to the first quarter of 1994.  This decrease was due to
         decreases in the revolving credit loan and the term loan balances.

         The combination of a mild winter, which contributed to increased sales
         volumes, and improved production efficiencies were significant factors
         in the Company's first quarter net income.  The Company reported net
         income of $426,000 or 11 cents per share during the first quarter of
         1995, compared to a loss of $726,000 or 19 cents per share during the
         first quarter of 1994.
