General Forests Notes

Forbach, Germany, is said to
have the most profitable town
forest known; it yields an annual
net gain of $12.14 an acre.
The state school of forestry at
Bottineau, North Dakota, anoun-
ces that it will have one million
trees for distribution to the citi-
zens of the state during 1915.
Apple wood, used almost ex-
clusively for saw handles, also
furnishes the material for so
many so-called brier- wood pipes
and particularly for the large
wooden type used n printing
signs and posters.
One of the most expensive
woods used regularly in an estab-
lished industry in the United
States is lockwood, the favorite
material for wood engraving.
1t has been quoted at four cents
per cubic inch, and about 81, 800

UNITED STATES LEADS
IN BIG GUN MAKING

One hundred and thirty eight
years ago the United States es-
tablished it's first arsenal or gun
factory at Springfield, Mass,
when cannon as we'll as muskets
were made for the continental
army. Soon after it established
another factory a t Harpers
Ferry. In 1771 the British gov
ernment prohibited the expor-
tation of arms to the American
colonies but this act did not dis
hearten the restless colonlsts
who numbered among them
selves hundreds of expert gun
smiths and cannon borers. In
nearly all the colonies cannon
were being bored by private in
dividuals and when the war
broke out there was a remark
able assortment of brass and
iron guns of the smooth bore
muzzle loading type. The best
of these was an Is FOUNDER
which could throw a shot from
one to two miles. These guns
were from five to eight feet in
length and it was with such ord
nance that Washington equipped
the forts around New York.
Some of these guns had been
captured from the British and
others were made by the colo
nists but the loss of these guns
and the evacuation of New York
forced upon congress the need of
establishing a government can
non factory at once. This can
non factory was one of the first
institutions established by the
continental congress and some
of the very best artillery of that
day was made by the inventive
genius of Americans.
Today the United States have
two of the greatest gun factories
in the world, the celebrated
Krupp's not excepted. At the
Washington navy yard the fam
Gus Ia inch naval gun is made
and at Waterville, N. Y, is
turned out the 16 inch sea coast
defence gun whose effective
range is 9 miles and which can
throw a projectile Fl miles. The
maximum energy of this gun is
SO, 900 foot tons. This monster
is 49 feet and 20 inches long;
the projectile is 5 feet, 4 inches
long with steel penetration OF
42.3 inches. The cost Of firing
one shot is 81, 900 and weight of
the rifle without the carriage is
126 tons.
To cast this gun, more than
200 cannon of the Is Founders
used in 1776 would have to be
melted down. Washington did
not have enough cannon in his
whole army to make one of these
big guns.
All the leading powers of Eu-
rope have bigger guns but none
of them, not even the AZ cent?
meter Krupp siege guns, surpass
this gun in energy. Our naval
and sea coast defense guns rep
resent the high water mark in
cannon-making and they are re-
markable illustrations of how far
inventive genius has progressed
in gun-making from the days of
the American revolution and,
too, in the face of the fact that
thirty years ago the big gun in
this country was not greatly su-
perior to what it was in the days
of Yorktown.
