One is cast, and the other is pressed. Pressed aluminium is the kind that is worked into all kinds of devices, while the cast metal Is turned to practical purposes, such as making pots, frying pans, teapots and a thousand other utensils. Great prog ress has been made In a comparatively 1 few years with the metal, and the methods are not yet perfect in all the branches for which the metal is de sired. The Arkansas mines sire proba bly the best in the world. At any rate j they have been more successfully worked than any others, and success is the measure of merit in aluminium as well as other things.
