With wi-ought-iron these objections do not hold. The gas-pipe used in the experiment illustrated in Fig. 136 was of wrought-iron. As was to be expected, no mercury pass

Wrought-iron is, however, more quickly burnt out than cast-iron. But the diflferenee is not important, especially where fire-clay linings arc used and proper care is taken in its management.
What will happen to iron in a red-hot condition seems to me to be entirely of minor importance. The matter is almost wholly dependent upon the quality of the castings used.
