0URBoYSAND GIRLS
THE SHOT-TOWER

The early method of manufacture
Ing small shot was both tedious and
expensive. Shot metal, an alloy of
lead iifty-six parts and of arsenic one
part, was rolled out into sheets of
proper thickness and then cut into
small cubes; then, In order to round
the cubes, they were placed In iron
cylinders partly Iilled with sand, and
as the cylinder revolved the frict-
ion OF the sand against the cubes
rounded them.
Finally James Watt, a noted Brit
ish engineer and inventor, deter
mined to find better and cheaper
way of making small shot. This
determination gave him some
thing to think about" and the
shot tower was the result of his
thinking.
According to tradition he was
oyertaken one day by severe rain
and hail storm and took refuge UNI
der a porch, AS he stood there and
watched the storm he for the first
time took particular notice of the
spherical shape of the raindrops and
the hailstones
The next day he carried a cupful
OF melted shot up into the steeple of
the Church Of st. Mary Of Radcliffe,
poured Ii through an iron colander.
and let 1t fan into the moat below.
He then came down, took from
the pool quantity of shot and |
found them much better rounded |
thanhe had dared to expect. They |
were somewhat fattened by striking |
the water as they fell, but by fur
Their experimenting he oyercame that I
defect BY dropping the metal from
greater heights, and thus giving It
time 10 cool and harden before strik-
Ing the water. Also, he discovered |
that the height had to be varied
according to the size of the shot;
The larger the shot. the greater
must be the elevation.
Thus the shot tower was invented.
and II mas ever since been in use In 1
making small shot. The different
sizes of shot are separated by
sitting process. Then in order to
discover the imperfect ones they are
rolled in straight lines down in
'lined planes. Those not perfectly /
'onnd refuse to roll straight, and
ire thus found and taken out.
The perfect shot are polished by
'laGing them in iron boxes with
little plumbago, and subjecting
hem TO rotary motion. When
AIKEN from the boxes they are ready
Q put up for the market.
