A very interesting experiment has

Missouri ore. The result was, he
made fOrty-fOur tons of iron and had
considerable coke left He made a

beating the biz muddy coal eight tons
in the. same time The tensile
strength of this iron is twenty-seven
thousand pounds stronger than the
standard cold blast charcoal iron, and
IL, 900 stronger than hot blast char
coal. The cost Of the iron was
twenty five dollars and eighteen cents
per ton, and 1t sold readily at forty
dollars. This cost can be somewhat
reduced. Furnaces are to be imme-
diatelybuilt at Howlett's coal mines, to
which Missouri ore will be transport
