gun tests at Indian Head ere the army is ready
to try out the first of it's new heavy.hitters at
Sandy Hook. n. j.
For the purpose of comparative tests the
war department is constructing one of the five
14-inch guns above mentioned a wre-wound
piece, but the other four built up in ac-
cordance with the usual plan of concentrc
cylinders assembled by shrinkage. This is the
practice likewise in the case of the new naval
gun. The army is already firmly committed
to the 14-nch gun and congress has authorized
the construction of four such weapons in addl-
ton to the five already mentioned, but work
them has not been commenced
1t is the claim of Brig. Gen. William Gro.
zier, the very progressive chief of ordnance of
the United States army, that the 14-inch gun
is vastly superior to the 12-inch gun which it
is displacing for the defense of wide channels
and harbors where the highest power is re-
CURED He claims that the army's new Ia
inch guns will be capable of firing greater
number of rounds than the 12inch guns, mas
much the same striking force can be i'm
parted to the projecte with less velocity.
Rear Admiral N. e. Mason, chief of ordnance
of the navy who has personal supervision over
the construction of the first 14inch gun for
the navy, has not yet come out so unquali-
fledly in favor Of the heavier ordnance as has
his confrere of the army, but Admiral Masons
verdict after the tests will be awaited with
great interest, for there is no officer in the
service more thoroughly conversant with the
ordnance requirements of the navy.
During the greater portion of his naval
reer Admiral Mason has specialized in ord
nance work. A native of Pennsylvania and
member of the graduating class of 1869 at the
United States naval academy, the young Off
Ger, following a varied experience in sea SER
vice in all parts of the world. was in 1884 de-
tailed for ordnance work at the navy yard at
Washington. After two years Of this service
he was given a post in the bureau OF ordnance,

on one of the largest lathes ever built. Later
the breech mechanism is attached From
technical standpoint the lathe work and KIN
dred operations may be considered the most
important operations in connection with the
construction of the 14-nch gun. To indicate
the scope of this work it may be cited that
one Of the cutting tools in going from end to
end of a jacket hoop travels IL miles and
requires Sc hours for the operation. An ex-
tension must needs be provided to enable the
largest lathe at the naval gun factory to &C.
commodate the 14-inch gun, but with such ex-
tension provided there are several lathes at
the big plant any of which are capable Of
handling this new size weapon.
Extreme accuracy in fashioning the tube Of
the 14-inch gun is essential, since the general
efficiency of the gun is dependent upon the
uniform diameter of this foundation tube, upon
which in due course the layers of hoops and
bands are shrunk. The tube contains first the
entire bore in which the big projectile will
travel distance of 542 inches ere it leaves
the muZZle of the gun. This bore should not
be more than two one-thousandths of an inch
out of a straight line if it is to meet require
monts and it is fitted with 80 rinng grooves,
which decrease in width as they approach
the muZZle and the purpose of which is to i'm
part to the projectile a rotary motion that
will prevent the missile from turning length
wise in flight and thus losing it's force Sec
ondly, the tube contains the powder chamber.
In the new 14-inch gun the capacity of the
chamber is 15,S43 cubic inches, being designed
to accommodate the 800 pounds of smokeess
powder which will constitute the full service
charge of the new weapon.
Interesting as is the construction of the
new gun, it will be equaled by the importance
of the tests of the monster shooting iron" at
the Indian Head proving grounds 1t has been
figured that a projectile fired with a full
charge, will have penetrative power at the
muzzle of more than % inches of the latest
Krupp steel armor. At 5000 yards range the
projectile could pierce armor 10 inches in
thickness, and at 5000 yards the penetration
would embrace everything up to Krupp armor
1212 inches in thickness. At 5000 yards, an
extreme battle range, the penetration will be
in excess OF IL inches, which is the thickness
of the heaviest armor on modern battleships

"QUANTITY, QUAIL
iTY AND PRICE"
THE THREE ESSENTIALS THAT
ARE GIVING WESTERN CANADA
Greater Impulse Than Ever This Year.


The reports from the grain fields OF
Central Canada. (Which comprises the
Provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan
and Alberta) are to hand. The year
1909 has not only kept pace with pre-
vious years in proving that this por-
ton OF the Continent is capable or
producing a splendid yield of all the
smaller grains, but it has thoroughly
outstripped previous seasons. There
is quantity, quality and price and from
all parts of an area of about $4,000
square miles there comes the strong
refrain of contentment and satisfac-
ton. In the distribution of the con-
ditions causing it no district has been
overlooked.
Various estimates of the total yield
OF wheat for the country have been
made, but it is not the vast total that
influences the general reader so much
as what has been done Individually
The grand total-say 100 million bush
els-may have its effect on the grain
price of the world; it may be interest
ing to know that in the worlds mar
kets the wheat crop of Canada has
suddenly broken upon the trading
boards, and with the Argentine, and
with Russia and India, is now a fac
tor in the making of prices. Ii so to-
day, what will be its effect five or ten
years from now, when, instead OF
there being seven million acres under
crop with total yield of 125 or 139
million bushels, there will be from II
to 80 million acres in wheat with a
yield OF from 325 to 600 million bush
els. When it is considered that the
largest yield in the United States but
slightly exceeded 700 million bushels,
the greatness of these figures may be
understood. Well, such is a safe fore
cast, for Canada has the land and it
has the soil. Even today the Prov
ince of Saskatchewan, one of the three
great wheat growing provinces of Can
ada, with 100000 acres under wheat,
produces nearly 80 million bushels, or
upwards of one-tenth OF the greatest
yield of the United States. And Sas-
katchewan is yet only in the begin
ming of its development. AS Lord
Grey recently pointed out in speaking
Oh lilo vel oubJSSl, lhlo yCdl . CIOp
does not represent one-tenth of the
soil equally fertile that is yet to be
brought under the plough.
Individually, reports are to hand
of yields of twenty-five, thirty and
thirty-five bushels to the acre. Scores
of yields are reported of forty and
some as high as sixty bushels. The
farmer, who takes care of his soil,
who gets his seed-bed ready early, is
certain Of a splendid crop.
The news of the magnificent CROP
yield throughout the Canadian West
will be pleasing to the friends Of the
thousands of Americans who are resi-
dents in that country and who are
vastly instrumental in the assistance
they are rendering to let the world
know its capabilities.

treme range of more than 20 miles.
but what might be termed its effective
range. that is, the range at which 1t
would engage the enemy in battle
conditions, is five miles.
The most spectacular operation in
the construction of this new 100000
"peace-makor," as in the manufacture
OF all heavy ordnance, is the jacketing
OF the gun. The method of procedure
is to first bore the tube of the gun and
finish its outer surface; then finish the
jacket inside, and, finally, shrink the
Jacket on the tube. AS a preliminary
to the delicate operation the jacket is
heated to a temperature of 600 de-
grees in cylindrical furnace, occupy
ing pit 40 feet deep. Air, blown
through furnace where white heat is
maintained, is forced through and
around the jacket for 20 hours. The
burning blasts of oil make a roaring
that completely browns voices and
therefore the entire operation is di-
rected by signals and without a word
being spoken.
After the ponderous jacket has re-
ceived its baptism of fire the mass of
glowing metal is lifted from the heat
ing furnace by means of crane
which, despite its tremendous power,
is capable of such delicacy of opera
ton that it centers the jacket within
one-thirty-second of an inch over the
tube and lowers it over the tube at
the rate of foot per minute. After
the jacket has cooled and shrunk on
the tube its outer surface is finished

tunity TO study the other side of ordnance
work as an officer Of the cruiser Brooklyn.
After the war he was successfully inspector OF
ordnance at the League Island navy yard and
at the naval torpedo station and latterly was
promoted to the highest post in the naval ord
nance organization.
Another officer of exceptional ability who
is playing an influential part in the creation
of the navy's new weapon is Rear Admiral
Z. n G.. LeutZe, superintendent of the naval
gun factory. Admiral Leutze is a native of
Prussia and graduated from the naval acad
envy in 1867. Early in his career he was in
charge of surveying parties that went over
the Panama and Nicaragua routes During the
Spanish-American war, in command Of the
Monterey he was ordered to the relief of Ad
miral Dewey in Manila bay; was present at
the taking of the city of Manila and took part
in several engagements with nsurrectionists
1t fell to his lot to re-establsh the Cavite
navy yard, an experience which aided to quail
ify him for his present responsible position,
which he has held for upward of nine years.
In the eyes of the average layman the
navy's tentative adoption of the 14-inch gun
appears somewhat revolutionary in view OF
the fact that il was but few years ago that
the naval authorities seemingly proceeded in
the opposite direction by declaring in favor of
the 12-inch gun in preference to a 13-inch gun,
with which our earliest battleships
equipped. Any inconsistency of policy is, how
ever, apparent rather than real, and the new
14inch gun will be much more effective in hit
ting power than either the II or - inch type.
The new gun, with a length of 1919 feet will
weigh in excess of SO tons-that is, 10 tons
more than the 12inch guns built for the new
battleships North Dakota and Delaware and
six tons more than the yet more powerful IL
inch guns designed for the new battleships
Arkansas and Wyoming. The 14inch gun,
which will hurl 1,40O-pound projectile at
speed of 1900 feet per second, will have an ex-
