First Use of Ircn.

AS result OF his interesting investi-
cations, DR.. Ridgeway concludes that
the smelling Of iron originated In
central Europe. and especially in the
region known as Norlcum. equivalent
TO modern Austria and Bavaria.
In Egypt it can be traced back to the
ninth century II. c.. and In Libya to
about $50 L. c. First mention of It's
use in China goes back TO 400 u. c.,
while in Uganda it is said TO have
been in use only some five or six
centuries.
The above date for the first use OF
iron in Egypt refers to the metal OBJ
tanned by smelling. The use of M.
tive iron IN the form OF meteoritos
dates back TO remote antiquity. The
weapons made from these were OBJ
tanned, like flint implements. by chip.
ping. And it is interesting TO remeni-
Der that recent Investigations have
shown that the iron of many meteor
ties is n sort OF natural steel.
