BEssEmER IRON AND STEEL
Original Process Involved Dscarboniza.
ton, or Burning Out Of Excess
Carbon, BY Blowing Air.

Henry Bessemer, who invented the
method named for him In the manufac-
ture of iron and steel, which revOlu-
tionized the industry, was granted a
patent by the British government on
October II, 1855. This was the first
patent given him, notes IN exchange.
Additional patents were taken out In
the following December and February,
covering improvements. Bessemer's
original process involved decarboniza-
ton. or the burning out Of the excess
carbon, by blowing air through pig
iron. This revolutionary invention was
due indirectly to the Crimean war.
Bessemer undertook to invent nm i'm
proved cannon. but found all available
metals too weak for the gun he sought
to make. He then began experiments
In steel making, with the ultimnte re-
suit Of the production Of "Bessemer
STEEL" His invention won for him fame
and fortune and the honor Of knight
hood, Sir Henry Bessemer was born
In England. but was OF French Hugue-
not descent. Since his pioneer invcn.
ton. the process Of converting iron In.
to steel has been vastly improved.

US. and 1t makes the mind very free
when we give up wishing and only
think Of bearing what is laid upon US
and doing what is given US to do
