''The consumption of iron on this Coast
in the shape OF stoves is 3 considerable
item." said T. j. Moore. stove man from
ST. Louis. at the Arlington last night,
''aRd If the trade could be secured for
local foundry such an enterprise ought to
be q success out here aud large estab-
lishment maintained. As rough guess /
should say that 900 TO 1000 tons of stoves
are used annually on this Coast. As in
other iron manufactures. it takes a mix
ture of different kinds Of iron to make
\ good iron for stoves. For instance, the
Missouri iron alone is too soft for that
kind of use, and all the st. Louis foun-
dries mix with il percentage OF hard
Tennessee iron. 1t takes years of expert
ence 10 ascertain just the exact proportion
of these mixtures, and where the desired
qualities can be obtained the cheapest.
don't know whether you have the requi-
site qualities out here or not, but If you
have stove foundry would doubtless be
one Of the first manufactures to consume
your pig iron."
