English crackers

Many other products belong to the category of yeast-raised bakery foods (6—9). Some that may be cited include various kinds of specialty breads, coffee cakes and danish pastries, bagels, croissants, yeast-raised doughnuts, some types of crackers, English muffins, and roUs. Of the total annual sales of the baking industry, yeast-raised goods constitute about 61%. 

These devices are old they were described by John Bate and by Hanzelet Lorrain. English crackers are represented in the lower right-corner of Figure 23, reproduced from Lorrain s book of 1630. They are used in bombshells and, as Lorrain used them, in rockets, where they jump about in the air producing a series of flashes and explosions. Children shoot them on the ground like firecrackers where their movements suggest the behavior of grasshoppers. 

English crackers are commonly loaded with granulated gunpowder, tamped into paper pipes like those from which pin-wheels are made. The loaded pipes are softened by moisture in the same way, passed between rollers to make them flatter, folded in frames, and, for the best results, tied each time they are folded and then tied over the whole bundle. They are generally supplied with black match for lighting. They produce as many explosions as there are ligatures.
