FIVE TONS OF DYNAMITE.

Terrible Explosion at Chippewa Falls,
Wis.
CHIPPEWA FALLS, Wis, Oct. 60
city and vicinity was terribly shaken
by an explosion which occurred in
small building on the summit of a hill
a mile from town, where was stored
five tons of dynamite. The stuff had
been sent here ON consignment from a
Chicago house to local hardware
merchant. It is presumed that rifle
bullet, fred by hunter into the build
ing, lodged in some powder and that
the person lost his life. The ground
was torn up to great depth
for some distance, while trees
and fences for many rods were
torn and twisted, and numerous trees
were pulled out by the roots. The glass
in every farmhouse for miles around
was shattered. In this city the effect
was disastrous to plate glass fronts and
windows in a number of dwellings.
The shock came while people were on
their way to church and threw women
and children down and caused several
women to faint.
The village of Bloomer, 10 miles dis
tant from the scene, appears to have
felt the force more severely than here.
The scene of the disaster was visited by
thousands.
A handkerchief and piece of a coat
sleeve were found about 80 rods away,
and they are thought to be part of the
clothing Of Paul Brohar, an Austrian,
who was seen going in the direction of
the magazine short time before the

Improve Ynnr stncIr.

It has been well said that the male is
half the herd. And yet how few of us
practice on the side of improvement by
making this smallest and least expen-
sive half the best that will increase the
value of our growing stock The head
of a small flock of sheep, when of a
standard excellence, costs but a trifie
more than mere scrub. when the diff
ference in the value Of the progeny is
considered. The difference arises from
the prepotency of the thoroughbred
male derived from generations of we'll
fed and well-bred ancestors. The same
is true of neat stock, of horses, of
swine. It is often the case that the
first cross from a thoroughbred sire
produces an animal which for appear
ance and production of meat or milk is
a profitable as though thorough bred
itself. The second and third cross
from the pure bred sire, or, better, an
other OF the same breed, becomes for all
practical purposes as good as the pure
breed except for breeding
In line of such breeding as this fat
ten the males for market as early as
possible; whether as lambs or yearling
mutton. or veal and beef Those who
have not tried thorough bred sire on
common stock will be we'll pleased with
the result, especially il they practice q
rational system Of feeding their stock.

The growing popularity of the

regard it rs a rough, brutal aud

I'm an agricultural paper some time ago 1
saw an article which strongly advocated the
feeding of bran to stock. The writer of the pa
per stated that the value of the manure alone
of the animals fed on bran was worth almost
much money as the value OF the bran fed to
them. L write to ask you if this is correct and
shall take it favor if you will give me some
Information of the subject.
Bran at this point is worth a cent a pound.
Stable manure Gair quality s100 per load.
as much bran they will eat that their ma
nure will be nearly worth what their feed cost.
cannot understand how this can be. For
instance, II have COW which is fairly well
fed and which gives, say couple of gallons of
milk q day, increase her feed giving her as
much bran as she VIII eat. Her manure of
course will Increase in bulk and will also be
richer in fertilizing materials than before, but
the flow OF milk VIII also be larger. Part of
the bran has gone to form milk, and part of it
has passed off as manure. Do you think that
ne larger quantity and better quality OF the
manure will nearly repay the extra cost 1.-The
increased feed not counting the value OF the
extra milk obtained by feeding literally -
q. +. D. Oakwoods n. e.
answered by II. 3. Battle, Director, N C..
Experiment Station-)
From the results of many experiments
the general statement is correct that
bout so per cent, or four-hfthS, of the
manurial value in the original food can
be recovered from the manure if prop
erly taken care OF. This does not mean
that four-ffths of the value of the food
stuff is utilized in this way but refers
to the fertihzing ingredients originally
present. For example, if the food stuff
contains $1,000 worth of fertilizing in
gradients in it. then $500 worth of
these ingredients can be saved. The
food stuff itself might be valued at $40
for feeding purposes. OF course, cows
and other animals need portions of the
food. but they need less of the fertili-
zing ingredients than they do of the
organic portions of the food-for in
stance-carbohyd rates, nitrogen--free
extract, protein, fat. etc. and these
materials are more needed in the pro-
duction of milk than the fertilizing in
gradients
