The new furnace OF the Cliffs company
ut Gladstone will likely be ready to be
put in blast during the coming week.
The work OF filling the battery OF kilns
at the furnace location WAS commenced
on Monday OF this week. There are
forty Of these kilns, each OF sixty cords
capacity, thus holding 2,400 cords Of
wood, from which II Ii expected to make
120, 900 bushels OF coal or an average OF
fifty bushels TO the cord as both the
wood and the kilns are flrst-class. Ii is
expected to turn the kins twice each
month. The tract OF land owned by the
company is eight miles long and two
miles wide, the 500 Line running through
the middle OF il lengthwise. so that the
haul to the tracks will average about
one-half mile. The chemical plant is one
OF the largest in the country, as IL is
said TO he one OF the most complete.
This is ready for operation. Besides
the kilns at the furnace above noted, the
company viii operate batteries at Bark
River and elsewhere. sufficient to supply
coal Mt all seasons Of the year, even
should the product OF the furnace go as
high as $50 tons per day which is not
unlikely. This. at fair estimate, would
consume 100000 bushels OF coal each
month or 5000 cords OF wood, which
would mean an average cutting OF the
timber OF six acres each day, estimating
the wood at forty cords TO the acre.
Those who understand the work OF
chopping, hauling and coaling this
amount OF wood, may appreciate the
importance OF the furnace as an indus
try, to say nothing OF the labor EN-
ployed in operating the furnace proper.
II is the intention OF the company to
erect modern sawmilI near the site OF
the furnace during the current year

AT the iron mine owned by
EDIsoN's Thomas A. Edison In Sussex
IRON county, New Jersey, the first
NINE. mining was begun about five
years ago, after $4,000, 900
had been expended in equipping the
plant. Since that time numerous
changes and improvements have been
made, and the mine is now able TO turn
out 10000 tons OF the very best quality
OF concentrated iron ore, the kind used
in the manufacturer OF steal in single
day, as against 100 tons day under
old methods. Furthermore, the ore can
be taken out and prepared for the mar
ket at the nominal cost OF sixty cents n
ton. II sells for $3.50 ton.
The plan Of taking out the ore is
briefly as follows: First by means OF
eight huge steam drills, driven by electric
power, the rock is blasted out In pieces
that weigh from eight to ten tons each.
These mammoth iron bearing quartz
powders are then hoisted from the pit
by means OF AN electric crane, and IRE
loaded on platforms cars, which carry
them TO the crusher plant This Is the
heaviest and most powerful piece OF
machinery ever built. The shaft il
twenty-five inches in diameter, while the
crusher measures twele feet across, and,
driven by electric dynamos. makes 800
revolutions minute. From beneath
the massive machine the crushed and
broken rock In dumped into an electric
elevator, which hoists IL sixty-five feet
To n hopper. down which IL slides TO the
jaws OF two sets OF ponderous electric
rollers.
From this hopper the rock comes out
In pieces the size OF hens eggs. These
pieces fall upon an electric driven belt
conveyor and are whisked away 20
another elevator. In which they are
again carried up sixty-hve feet 60 I'm
electric dryer that has temperature OF
900 degrees Fahrenheit. Through this
they pass and are deposited IN a huge
cone-shaped stockhouse. Thence they
fall through the small end OF the cone
into 900 buckets, which are attached TO
an electric conveyor. and these carry
the egg-sized pieces Of rock TO three sets
OF high-pressure rollers.
Beneath the rollers the rock is gran
ulated, ground as fine as sand, and
thence, after passing through a series OF
screens, the graduated rock Is trans
ferrcd 10 the most wonderful part OF the
entire plant. This is the magnet room.
There In place are 200 magnets, each
twelve feet long, wound with ten miles Of
wire and stored with TOO volts OF cleo
tricity.
In the magnet room the conveyor
branches off In two directions. and as
the junction Is reached the Stag sand, un-
affected by the electricity. keeps on a
straight course, and IL eventually
dumped into the yard OF the plant. But

local painters who pronounce 1t to be oil

paint il extensively used in the United
