General View of Blast Furnaces: the furnaces show fairly on
the left. In the rounded structures is heated the air afterwards driven
through the furnaces.

A Rail- Mill in Operation: The white streaks which so vividly
in the foreground are hot rails.

Casting-Floor of a Blast Furnace: The tapping- hole is under
the big pipe in the center. The very white place on the floor is molten
iron flowing from the tapping-hole across the casting-floor to the ladles.

The Interior of a Plate-Mill: The picture was taken by the company's
photographer just after one of the plates had fallen on a man's foot.

The Pouring- Floor or Pit in the North Open Hearth Mill: The
furnaces are on the right. The pouring-stand is on the left. It was on
this floor that Ora Allen lost his life. The travelling crane, operated
by his brother, may be seen overhead.

"Hot Tamales:" Massive steel ingots being transferred
inside the yard by a dinky engine on a narrow-gauge track.
