The metal from the blast furnace was poured into an 85-ton receiver, fromwhich it was weighed and poured into an 18-ton converter. The same authority gives the following for the blast-furnace practices at * Railway Age Gazette, August 19, 1910. t Report to Rail Committee, Proceedings Am. Ry. Eng. & M. of W. Assn., Vol. 12, Part 2, 1911. 364 STEEL RAILS the Gary works. Lake Superior ore was used, reduced in blast furnaces usingordinary air and having the following average charge:. f Shell PLAN. SECTION.

Calcium oxide Magnesium oxide Iron and aluminum .53 .74 The iron from the blast furnaceswas poured into a mixer, from whichit was weighed. The direct process is one by whichthe steel is made from the ore in oneoperation. In ordinary coke blast-furnace practice successive casts vaiytoo much in Si and S to allow of takingthe metal as it flows from the furnaceinto ladles and from them to the con-verter or open-hearth furnace. It is,therefore, poured first
