Excerpt from Proceedings of the Alabama Industrial and Scientific Society, Vol. 1 The movements of the earth's crust in this region have brought in close proximity the necessary material for the mak ing of iron. The work of the geologist has been to show where these materials lie, and of the chemist to give their elements and value. The civil engineer has traced upon the ground our lines of transportation, the mining engineer has shown us how to extract our ores and coal and limestone, and the mechanical engineer has devised for us the requisite machinery. The practical men of our State have, with these scientific aids, brought about an industrial success within the last fifteen years that is marvellous, and one that cannot be paralleled in any section of our country. The statistics in regard to the progress of our development are interesting, but as they are published and accessible to all, I will not occupy the time of the Society with them. The development has but started. The increase of produc tion for the next fifteen years will be as remarkable as in the past, but more than an increase of production is required to give our section the success it is entitled to. Our iron must be transfused here from its crude condition into finished articles, whether they be pots and pans or rails and engines. This is a self-evident proposition and will soon be an accomplished fact. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
