DYNAMITE CLEARS LAND.
Explosive Also Used at College Park
for Digging a Ditch.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
COLLEGE PARK, Nd, March 15.-The
clearing Of lands for cultivation, sub
soiling, digging of bitches and tree plant
ing. all by the use of dynamite instead Of
by manual labor, was demonstrated at
the Maryland agricultural experiment
station here Monday. The details of
the experiment were under the direction
Of E. H. Brinkley, farm superintendent
and the actual work was under the d.
rection Of w. L. Chamberlain, demon
strator from the du Pont Powder Com
pany of Wilmington. The exhibition was
attended by officials from the Maryland
Agricultural College and station, twenty
four agricultural students In charge OF
w. T. L. Taliaferro. professor of agricul-
ture, and number of farmers from the
adjoining neighborhood.
The stumps of two large naples, q
black oak and black gum, were re-
moved by single blast. The black oak
was forty inches In diameter and twenty
one-half pound sticks Of dynamite were
required on this job. Half of the stump
was blown a distance Of sixty yards and
a hole seven feet deep left The expert
ments took place north of the college
building in rear Of the poultry farm on
a piece of ground from which trees had
recently been cut. The experiments we're
pronounced successful. The farmers
present gave II as their opinion that the
use of dynamite in clearing land would
prove much more economical than the
usual method. 1t would also provo an
important factor in view of the universal
scarcity of farm labor.

four feet deep and six feet wide by the
simultaneous explosion Of a number OF

ribly bruised by her attempts at suicide
