Dynamite in Fruit Growing.

A novel demonstration was made in
two fruit orchards in Berkeley county last
week by the Du Point Powder Co.. OF
Wilmington, Del, namelv the practical
use of dynamite tor blowing holes for
planting trees and removing stumps and
other obstacles from the orchard and
field. The demonstration was in charge
of J. r. Burkholder, representative OF
the powder people, and E. r. Angst, a
practical man in the use OF dynamite for
the purposes mentioned.
An exhibition OF this new method de-
signed to help the orchardist and farmer
was made on the fruit farm OF Senator
Gray Silver, at lnwood. The demon
Stration was witnessed by quite number
of fruit growers from town and country,
and even Winchester sent some men
down in automobiles. The explosions OF
the dynamite wakened the echoes around
Inwood and much interest was aroused
in what was going on.
One object in giving these demonstra-
tionS and instructions is to overcome the
natural fear of dynamite and to show that
in the proper handling Of II the element
of danger is far less than in the ordinary
blasting powder, and for the purrose de-
scribed il is infinitely better. To make a
hole in the ground in which TO plant a
tree is but the work Of a moment. while
its use in the quick removing Of stumps
has long been known, comparatively
speaking. In some other sections OF the
country dynamite has been in almost gen.
eral use by farmers and orchardistS for
several years; and there is no doubt that
the same may be soon said of this section,
II is claimed, as based on practical
tests covering period OF several years,
that a fruit tree will grow and thrive in a
place where an old or dead tree stumn
has been blown out with dynamite-say
in the faIl-all the germs that would affect
the new tree having been utterly destroy
cd
