1t requires eight thousand car
loads of coal to melt the $500 car
loads of pig iron that every twelve
months pass through the gates of
these works, and are taken out as
manufacture tubes. The Stevens
fire clay has an important tunc-
ton to perform in the melting Of
this iron. Five thousand tons will
be- used this year in the cupo-
la furnace Of the Tube company.
The difference ordinarily observed
in fire clay is the question of du-
ration. The clay from Pennsyl-
vania, formerly used, stood the
work for eight days; the Critten-
den county fire clay makes a rec
ord of q days, a difference of l3
days, and that number of days is
sufficiently great to warrant the
company in its use, even if much
more expensive than at present.
The clay is ground and tempered
and without being burned is made
into furnace Innings. This of
course saves labor and money as IA
cupola in blast for 81 days instead
of 8 means an output very much
greater than where the furnaces
have to blow out and become cool
