FARMER PL0Ws BY DYNAMITE
Alabama Man Finds Method More Sat
isfactory and Profitable-Rips
Up the Subsoil

Is the plowboy going to be dis.
placed by the man with dynamite?
Perhaps not Immediately, but it is
fact which is receiving a good deal of
attention at present that blowing by
dynamite for certain soils is a vast
improvement over the old system
which has come down to us from time
immemorial
Down in Alabama farmer named
Johnson tried both methods and found
dynamite the more satisfactory and
profitable. All his life, until last year,
since he first became a tiller of the
soil-and he now Is 81 years-he pillow.
ed his land in the old way and never
succeeded in raising more than one
bale of cotton to the acre. Last year
he experimental with dynamite, and
the yield of cotton was increased to
four and half bales. Mr. Johnson
says that with a little more care in
using dynamite for blowing and with
a little more fertilizer he would be
able to raise five bales to the acre.
The reason why dynamite is supe-
rior to the old method of blowing is
because it rips up the subsoil, thereby
adding greatly to the fertility of the
land and permitting the roots of plants
to find nourishment at much greater
depth than is possible with the old
method Of cultivation And thus
while in large part solving the drought
problem by enabling the plant roots
to find moisture deep in the earth.
blowing by dynamite also disnoses of
insect pests by destroying them with
in considerable radius of the ex-
plosions. That dynamite blowing will
come into more general use is the
opinion of those who have given sa-
rious thought to the subject.
