Complete figures for the year 1895 have not yet been given out but 1t is estimated that the production for the year Will be over 1000, ,000 tons In commenting upon the enormous increase in the production of open hearth steel, MT. James M. Swank of the American Iron and Steel association makes the following state ment:
 "Production of Bessemer steel 4,909,12S tons: open hearth. over 1,000,000 tons against 7S4, ,936 in 1894" He says: Tt Is this branch (open hearth) that capacity is expanding most rapidly, since the basic furnace has proven its capacity to crowd the acid converter on low cost or produc- ton for soft stock. rough enumeration indicates that in 1895 there have been add ed to plants in this country not less than thirty furnaces, the majority of large ca pacity. These represent an annual toh- mage of not less than 100000 tons, and may reach 50 900 tons with the new plants now under contract or construction In other words we have now in this county active capacity capable of dealing, when strained with a total output of OO,0O0 tons of Bessemer and open hearth steei.
 There were in the United States in Jan uary, 1892 seventy-one completed open hearth plants, consisting of 164 furnaces' in January, 1894. eighty-one open hearth plans. with 1S9 completed furnaces, ana in January 1S96 eighty-eight plants, with 225 furnaces complete and twenty in pro- cess of erection. =
 To the superiority and adaptibility or it's product, together with the advantage it possesses in being admirably suiteo to the use of high phosphorus irons anu miscellaneous scrap. Is due the remark- able growth and great expansion or the basic open hearth process. Since the De, ginning of the manufacture of basic steel by the Carnegie company at Homesteaa in 1SSS the operations have been con tinued and greatly enlarged. During the year 1890 this firm commenced the eree- ton of eight open hearth furnaces TOT ths manufacture of basic steel, ana since .iia. time have built twelve additional basic open hearth furnaces, ranging III capac- itv from so 0OO to S5, 900 pounds per heat giving them today plant of twenty fur naces taxed to their utmost to fill the orders Recently ground adjoining the Homestead works has been purchased on which to erect twenty more basic open hearth furnaces the enormous and con stantly increasing demand for that class of steel rendering such action necessary Other concerns throughout the country notably the Illinois Steel company, the Pennsylvania Steel company, Jones x I,aughlin Park Bros. & Co.,, and the A. Sz P Roberts company of Pencoyd, Pa, have shared in this development. Per haps the following extract from a table which appeared in the Iron Age or March 12, showing exactly what has been done in this direction the past year, will be of interest:

TEMPERANCE TEACHING IN HOLLAND


II Is proposed to Introduce into the schools Of
Holland n line of instruction intended to fortlry
the minds OF It's youth against the evils or
drink. Holland has been tolcrably hard -drink
ing country since anything has been known OF
II, and the modern idea that there is anything
evil in the practice strikes some Of the older
Dutchmen with amaZcnent. But there Is Il
large class which recognizes the wisdom OF
some limitation of the custom. and II Is pro-
posed to prepare the way for 1t by teaching the
growing generation something about the effects
Of drink upon thd health and constitution. 1t
goes much against old usage and some of the
teachers are opposed to II. but It's advocates
are quite determined and arc likely to have
much success.
Mr. II. GOcman Borgcsius. one of the most
resolue advocates Of the plan. contributes Il
paper on the subject 10 the "Vragcn DIES Tidjis"
in which he sets forth the proposition that the
drink evil Is one Of the greatest. II not the
greatest, of our day, and that the principal
means Of fighting 1t is by teaching the children.
The instruction. as he says, should be given by
the parents, but as great numbers OF them
neglect 1t or are incapable Of impartng it, 1t
must be given In the schools or not at all To
the objection that 1t extends a list Of studies
already burdensomely long with the danger Of
