Boe powder uniform in grain and so uniform in strength; or 
BS does it consist of big and small grains mixed with perhaps 
ae a quantity of powder dust? If the latter is the case, it is 
3m obvious to all thinking sportsmen that the powder is not 
Bet reliable. Again, will the nitro you propose buying give a 
9 high velocity with a good pattern and a low breech press- 
Boe ure, or will it scatter or ball the shot? Is the powder easy 
TF to load; will it give good results in cheap shells and with 
Bet cheap wadding ; or does it require special handling and ex- 
FIR pensive shells and wads? These points are all of import- 
Bas ance, but there is still another. Will the powder you pro- 
FAIR pose using keep its strength and always be the same as 
ts when you buy it; or will it fall down in damp weather, or 
FAIR lose its strength with age ? 
Lats These are important features to be considered in 
RE choosing a powder and they have all been considered in the 
a manufacture of LAFLIN & RAND SHOTGUN SMOKELESS.

as strong. It is made in the form of a string and cut into 
As grains of exact size. It works perfectly in a cheap shell 
a, and with the cheapest wadding. It gives a low breech 
EXITS pressure, high velocity and fine pattern. It is Waterproof, 
as and will never deteriorate in strength, no matter what the 
PEC climatic conditions, how long loaded, or where stored. — If 
ae you will give it a trial you will never use any other powder.
