PAPER GUNS.
The wonders in the use of paper and wood pulp seem not
likely to cease soon. The latest application of paper is for the
manufacture of large guns. Guns have been made from leather
pulp, and these are bound with hoops of metal. The leather
pulp is, of course, hardened. There is also a core of metal set
inside of the gun. Th lightness of the leather cannon is an essen-
tial feature. The principal aim, however, is to seure a material
which has some elasticity, so that the force of a heavy discharge
wil be broken gradually. This sees to be obtained in cannon
made from a pulpy substance. Paper pulp answers the purpose,
as numerous trials and experiments have proved.
