Excerpt from Directory to the Iron and Steel Works of the United States, 1886: Embracing the Blast Furnaces, Rolling Mills, Steel Works, Forges, and Bloomaries in Every State and Territory; Also, Lists of Wire Mills, Wire-Nail Works, Car-Axle Works, Car-Wheel Works, Carbuilders, Locomotive Works, Wrought-Iron Pipe Works The number of completed rolling mills and steel works described in the Directory for 1884 was 434, with 4 building, but in the edition for 1886 only 423 are described, with 13 building. The slightly decreased number of rolling mills and steel works in 1886, notwithstanding the great increase since 1884 in the erection of steel plants, is accounted for partly by the fact that a number of rolling mills which were built to roll iron rails have been Wholly abandoned, and partly by the fact that the increasing use Of steel tends to diminish the demand for the products of iron rolling mills. These influences are made very appar ent in the figures which relate to puddling and heating furnaces. In the edition for 1884 the number of puddling furnaces recorded was and of heating furnaces, In the present edition the num ber of puddling furnaces recorded is and of heating furnaces, The number of trains of rolls has also decreased, the number in the edition for 1884 being and in the present edition, With the advance of steel the puddling furnace is less and less used, while fewer heating furnaces and trains Of rolls are needed.
