***Maybe we should ban charcoal, sulfur and saltpeter.***

Well, there goes my Barbeque fuel, insect repellent, and meat preservative.

I guess I will have to change over to sugar and chlorate potassium.

I got that recipe from the book 3001 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS published by A A HARDING magazine back in 1941. Now known as FUR, FISH and GAME.

Back then ( before 1941) Scientific American published a lot of recipes for home made gunpowder.
