It will be observed that the ordinary furnace received charges of , and yielded on an average 4261b., representing a loss of 12 per cent,whereas the gas furnace received charges averaging 4281b., and yielded4131b., representing a loss of 3-5 per cent. It is important to observe, moveover, that the gas furnaces turned outeighteen heats in three shifts per twenty-four hours, instead of only twelveheats per twenty-four hours, which was the limit of production in the ord-inary furnace.
