K PLATE 1.S COSTLY.
Tlie general public has always
been my.-tiLit'd at the extremely
high price i' lid for armor plate.
Tlie most important itum is the
great length of time required for .
the successful manufacture of
a plate; for, on an average, every
plate. is being constantly worked
upon, either m tumace, xorge,
machine short' or annealing and
! tenmerino- denartment. for a con-
' ti.ir.iiiw i-iro ied of time months.
Other causes of high cost are:
the lurco number of separate
oporatiens, the frequency with
which t lie great masses must be
transported, and the distances -over
which they must be carried
in their journey from one depart
ment to another. To illustrate ";
