Aren't those "cannonballs" also called Toledo Torches?

I could be mistaken (as I often am), but I think that was actually a brand name. More or less the same thing just made by Toledo vs Dietz.  They also go by "smudge pot", fire pot,  flare, etc. There are also smaller versions of these that were used as part of a flare kit for trucks in the event of a break down.
