JANE, Mo. — Cody Goswick parks his rig next to a 50-foot high pile of pulverized limestone. After a bucket loader dumps two scoops into Goswick’s trailer, he makes a quick drive across the scale and pulls over to tarp up.

He’s hauling 3 tons of agricultural lime from the quarry in Jane, 17 miles northwest to Anderson, where he’ll unload it on a cattle pasture.
