MAKING STEEL RAILS.

How the Glowing lngots Are Rolled
Into Shape and Cut.
That rail mill was certainly a won.
derful sight. The enormous glowing
ingots were carried ON a transfer car
to sort Of trough. The floor of the
trough. or table" as they call 1t. con-
sisted Of a series of rollers that were
turning rapidly. Riding on them, the
bug. clumsy ingot sailed along until 1t
bumped against pair Of large steel
rolls. Immediately the rolls seized it
and hauled 1t through. like clothes
through a clothes wringer. We could
not see that it had been Hattened down
very much. but We noticed that deep
corrugations had been cut into its up
per surface.
As 1t moved on the rollers turned It
over on its side before 1t was caught
by the next pair or stand" Of rolls. 1t
went through four stands in success
sion. turning over between each stand
until 1t had made complete turn.
Then 1t came to WHAT'S called "three
high" mill. which has three rolls. one
above the other First the ''bloom." as
it was now called, went between the
middle and bottom rolls. but no sooner
bad it emerged than 1t was raised bod
lily. the supporting roller tables on
both sides Of the mill being raised up
simultaneously.
The rollers Of the tables were then
reversed. causing the bloom to start
back between the middle and top rolls.
The tables were now lowered. their
rollers reversed and the bloom sent
through between the middle and bot
tom rolls, as before. but this time 1t
was switched to one side where the
rolls were little larger In diameter,
and it was tighter squeeze getting
through them.
And 50 the bloom went back and
forth. being switched over to a tighter
pass each time until 1t was squeezed
down to about eight inches square and
over forty feet long. Then it was cut
In two. and each bloom went through
another set of rolls that gradually
worked It down to the size and shape
Of q rail. 1t was fascinating to watch
that snakelike bar over a hundred feet
long writhing as II alive.
As II came back for its last sally
through the rolls whistle was blown
as warning that the rolling was fin-
ished. and the rail was now on its
way to the saws. There were Eve cir.
