This is not criticism Of McGraw. No

manlike or not, IL is very effective, and
he gets results out OF his Men.
HIS system is TO ge; the percentage

in the rules and by getting the per-

year more Giants are hit by pitched
balls than are the players on other
teams. Year after pear they get more
close decisions than any other club.
Year after year they gain what seems 70
be an unfair advantage at home. and
then fight hard for an even break on

The decline in these bonds recently has

atlOns just described is responsible for
the uniformity Of the pellers.
After the pellets are sorted, they go
through polishing machines, the oper-
alton of polishing being accomplished
by tumhlng them In a long metal cyl
inder. Next the shot goes into great
storage tanks. There are slxty-two Of
these tanks on the ground floor Of the
plant In question, each holding nine
and half tons of shot.
The shot is weighed into the storage
tanks by automatic weighers, and like
wise weighed out again In lots Of twen-
ty-five pounds, although the machines
In the weighing process can be adjust
ed to weigh any amount of shot. The
shot is prepared for shipment in bags.
For instance, If five pounds is desired,
this amount runs into a bag, the bag
automatically moves into position to a
sewing machine several inches to one
side of the weighing device, where II
Is mechanically sewed up and is then
ready for the market.
Before shot is shipped out, however
each lot is tested for hardness. This
quality is determined by compression
with a two-Ounce weight which falls
a distance OF "a inches. A pellet Is
placed in a Jig under a plunger and
the two-ounce weight hits the end OF
the plunger, compressing the pellet
There is a definite standard Of com
preston for each individual size OF
shot. The diameter Of the pellets be

SHOT TO1E7S-
BY ROBERT H. MouLroN

- f YOU should ask hun
!. !. !. !: !. !. ! !. !. !. !: !.
RI HN dred experienced hunters,
LRJ Ia men who have followed
lNJ kA the field for many years
k[d and fired their shotguns
Eb&l 5& times without number, ap-
EAFSl proximately how many pei
lets there are in an ounce
Of No. chilled shot-rhe size general
ly used in the hunting of ducks, rab-
bits, squirrels and similar game-the
chances are that a good many Of them
could not come anywhere near the cor
rect number. 1t is also probable that
few of them could tell you exactly
how the shot is made.
The manufacture of shot Is, be 1t
known, Il most interesting and ingeni-
Gus process. In every plant where
shot is made there is one building
which stands out above all others.
This is the so-called "Shot-tower,"
which rises to height of about two
hundred feet, and in this tower the op-
eratiOns employed in making shot be-
gin. The capacity of the shOt-tOwer
in a large modern plant is fifty tons Of
shot a day, all of which is made, un-
touched by human hands, after the
bars of lead are put into the great
melting cauldron on the tOpmost floor
of the tower. The lead bars weigh
approximately one hundred pounds
each and are about two feet long.
They are put into the cauldron as
needed and melted by gas neat.
Exceptional pains are taken in man
ufacturing shot. Every size Of chilled
shot has a different formula-a fact
which it seems difficult for the Ordl
nary man to understand. 1t requires
223 pellets to make an ounce Of No.
shot, or 1858 to the pound. In the
case Of No. IA shot, the kind used In
trap shooting and for quail, grouse ant
other birds of this type, $500 pellets
are required to make a pound. Al
this rate it would take over eleven mil
lion pellets to make a ton of No. ~
shot, and about half a billion woulC
represent a days output.
In one Of the largest and oldest mu
