The South is makiDg rapid strides In
crude and finished iron making, her pig
iron output Lust year being 100000 tons
and capacity this year: 100000 tons.
Within two years Virginia has added seven
charcoal furnaces, with a yearly capacity Of
10000 tons. List year, the CT ka iron
capacity Of that state was increased l65 600
tons, aud the total output was 233,00O tons.
Alabama and Georgis furnacls are increas.
ing in number and capacity. The exten..
slve coal deposits are being opened, aud
mills are beng protected Tor the msnuiac.
ture Of nails, bars, spikes and Heyeral kinds :
OF agricultural machinery.
The restriction cau:el by the blowing
out OF no many iu1nacea has placed the
production belnw tEN. OF previous yasrs.

4.l40.000 in round nnlu burs. Besiles this,
large Quantities Of pig iron were imported.

These facts point 10 favorable future for:
