frnctlla Iron.
An Important future in tho median
leal world is predicted by a waiter in
Engineering for the material known as
ductile iron, now being introduced. Its
tensile strength is represented to be 68, •
000 pounds and more to the square inch,
and, attar being heated to a dull red and
plunged into ooldwater, it can be easily
filed, showing that it takes no temper.
Specimens are shown which have had
portions heated and drawn out under the
hammer after being twisted cold with
out fraefure, and a notable piece of work
nf the new metal is mentioned—viz., a
heavy chain, of which the links were
east open, then joined and welded with
out the use of flux; also valve stems,
crank shafts and other similar pieces
finished to pattern in a lathe and exhib
iting surfaces without a blowhole, in
trioate castings, too, being reproduced
regularly without failure, while a very
high percentage of losses has attended
other methods of producing very strong
castings. The main question, however,

that produce castings which w ill stand
all the above testa, but without- being
really cheap, as is claimed for this new
