Dynamite Blasts in Rock Falls, Ill.,.
Destroy the Vital spark In

Blasting in the bed of the Henne-
pin canal, in Rock Falls, H., is caus-
ing the hens of that town to set
long without results. Poultry breed
ers declare that the explosions de-
stroy the vital sparks in eggs, and
no chicks have been Matched near the
canal in that town since the blasting
began, three weeks ago.
Rock Falls takes special pride in
its fancy chickens, many of the lead
ing citizens belonging to the Arena
Poultry association, and the disPO-
sitions of the association members
have been almost as badly Jared as
the eggs. At times 200 pounds of dy-
Mantle are exploded in the canal, but
the effect of the explosion is more
noticeable across Rock river, in
Sterling, than in Rock Falls, rafting
down dishes from shelves and break
ing window panes, while the Rock
Falls troubles are confined to the
eggs.
