To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Erie charcoal furnace, at Erie, was built in 1842, and abandoned in 1849. It used bog ore. It was owned by Charles M. Heed. Liberty furnace, on the north side of French creek, in Crawford county, was built in 1842 by Lowry & Co. , of Meadville, and abandoned in 1849.
At the Siberian rolling-mill of Rogers & Burchfield, at Leech- burg, Armstrong county, natural gas, taken from a well 1, 200 feet deep, was first used as a fuel in the puddling furnace. In the fall of 1874 it was announced that dur...ing the preceding six months the gas had furnished all the fuel required for puddling, heating, and making steam, not one bushel of coal having been used.
Iron Ore has been found in Elk, Potter, Bradford, Juniata, and Wayne counties, but it has not been developed. Ore has recently been mined at Austinville, in Columbia township, Bradford county. Should it ever become necessary, Pennsylvania can add greatly to her present production of iron ore, and of fuel to smelt it there never can be any scarcity.
