Artillery Schools
institutions established for the purpose of giving a special training to the officers, and, in some cases, the men, belonging to the artillery service. In Great Britain the artillery schools are at Woolwich and Shoeburyness. An artillery school at Fort ARTOCARPACEÆ, a natural order of plants, the bread-fruit order, by some botanists ranked as a sub-order of the urticaceæ, or nettles. They are trees or shrubs, with a milky juice, which in some species hardens into caoutchouc, and in the cow tree (brosimum galactodendron) is a milk as good as that obtained from a cow. Many of the plants produce an edible fruit, of which the best known is the bread-fruit (artocarpus).
