Does the heart work hard to make blood cells?

No, the heart does not work hard to make blood cells. In fact, it does no work at all. Blood cells are produced in bone marrow, in cancellous bone tissue (or 'spongy tissue') within the hard casings of bone. A hormone (protein with a very specific role in the body) called 'erethropoeitin' (erethro = red blood cell, poeitin = producing) stimulates red blood cell (erethrocyte - erethro = red, cyte = cell) production within the bone marrow. Ooh I nearly forgot - the main bones with spongy bone tissue (ie. the bones that produce red blood cells) are some of your rib bones, and femur bones. The heart's got it's work cut out for it just by pumping your blood (a mixture of red blood cells AND plasma, as well as 1% 'buffer substance') around your body. If you are reading this, it means you're old enough that your heart would have pumped millions of litres of blood through your body. And by this I mean your blood volume, circulating many times. Don't forget that red blood cells only hang around for about 120 days before they break down. :)

what is the main organic substance found in bone?

A typical bone has an outer layer of hard or compact bone, which is very strong, dense and tough. Inside this is a layer of spongy bone, which is like honeycomb, lighter and slightly flexible. In the middle of some bones is jelly-like bone marrow, where new cells are constantly being produced for the blood.
