Not illustrated. 1908 Excerpt: ... workmen washing the ore, but they also buy from the farmers in considerable quantities. No other than the bog ore is used. Trials have been made with other ores, but they have proved unsatisfactory. Charcoal only is used as fuel in the smelting. The limestone used is taken from ranges I and IV of Grantham township, Drummond county. Seventy pounds of the latter is used with each charge. The charge cbnsists of the following: --70 lbs. limestone. 500 to 850 lbs. ore. 400 lbs. charcoal. About 3 charges to an hour are made. There are two furnaces in operation. One is 30 feet and the other 35 feet in height. Each has a hot stove in connexion with it, into which the gas from the blasts are directed from two blowers, driven by water power furnished by the St. Francis river. The larger furnace has a capacity of 8 to 10 tons of pig iron per day; the other of 1 to 8 tons per day. The limestone is sometimes put through a crusher, and the iron ore tried with the bog ore was also crushed; but generally the small quantity of limestone required is easily broken by hand labour. The pig is sold to the Canadian Pacific railway, and the Rhodes-Curry Company, for the manufacture of car wheels. The Company has its own timber limits and makes its own charcoal. At Drummondville there are eight oblong kilns, each of 60 cords capacity, and two beehive kilns, each of 30 cords capacity. At Wickham Falls the Company has eight oblong kilns, each of 60 cords capacity. The charcoal kilns require two days to fill, three to four days to burn, five to six days coking, and two days to unload. This is for the 60 cord kilns, 12 to 14 days in all. Montreal Steel Works. Locality: Point St. Charles, near Montreal, Que. Incorporated, 1903. Authorized capital, $2,000,000, paid up $1,500,000. Par val..
