In spite of a falling market in all the industrial countries of the world, German iron production continues increasing. During the first nine months of last year, 14,000 tons had been produced as against 13,120,000 tons in the first nine months of 1912/ 11.500,000 tons during the same period of 1911, and less than 11,000,000 tons in the course of the corresponding period of 1910. If one compares the figures of the iron production, month for month, for the last six yeans, it is somewhat surprising to see that during the whole of the year 1908, and during the first two months of 1909, the iron production showed a falling-off in comparison I with the corresponding months of the preceding year. This applies even to the month of February, 1908, which apparently formed an exception, for it must be borne in mind that the year in question was a leap year and that, consequently, February had one extra day. A comparison, made month for month, for all years since 1909, reveals, however, quite a different state of I things, as a steady and unbroken increase in the production of German pigiron is 6een. The fact that this movement has continued, regularly until the present time, and hag still done so during the month of September, is evidence of the onfidence still existing with regard to the future prospects of the iron industry.
