Excerpt: ...but much of it was brought from the Juniata valley, which also supplied the mills with most of their blooms. The Juniata pig iron and blooms were hauled over the Allegheny mountains to Johnstown, usually on sleds in the winter season, and taken down the Conemaugh, Kiskiminetas, and Allegheny rivers to Pittsburgh with the spring and fall freshets. In 1829 Pittsburgh had eight rolling-mills, using 6,000 tons of blooms, chiefly from the Juniata valley, and 1,500 tons of pig metal.

There were no blast furnaces in Pittsburgh and Allegheny county in 1858, but now there are twelve.

The ores used at Pittsburgh are mainly obtained from the Lake Superior mines, but those of...
