A NEW ALLOY
If metallic Iron is melted along with
copper or brass, it is said that part enters
the alloy and becomes chemically com
b ned, and the remainder separates in
pellets or nodules of the hardness of
steel. These nodules are the source of
much trouble in brass, as they injure tools
ti an alarming extent.
