PLAN To FARM
WITH DYNAMITE
OU PoNT POWDER TO BE USED
on ARDmoRE DEMONSTRATION
FARM.

The Ardmore!tc is in receipt OF q
letter, bearing date November Is
from the St Louis office OF the Du
Pont Powder company advising OF
the shipment TO the commissioners
! Of Carter county from the Oklahoma
City branch OF this company, OF one
hundred pounds OF Red Cross Extra
dynamite, twelve hundred feet OF
Beaver brand fuse, four hundred Du
Pont blasting caps and one cap
crimper, for use in shooting up two
acres of land on the demonstration
farm.
Robert Sciyally OF Springer, chair
man OF the board CT county COM
missioners, has also been notified
Of the shipment.
Since the first experimenting with
dynamiting was begun on the farms
OF the country number of years
ago. it has become more and more
popular as a chaep and effective
means OF breaking up the hard
pan" thereby permitting the mois-
ture to rise to the roots OF the grow
ing crops as the season advances
and the soil becomes DRY with the
decrease Of rainfall
All the different brands Of dyna-
mite have been fairly tested and 1t
has been conceded by a. that the
Du Pont powder is the best for this,
as well as for all other purposes.
The care that is used in the man
ufacture of the Du Pont brands OF
powder has placed ii in the lead o.
all other brands. The careful and
scientific methods used in its max
ing guarantees an equal distribution
of the nitro glyceriEe throughout
the stick" lessening thereby the
danger in handling this explosive
and securing the very best results
from its detonatlon.
In view of the fact that the Du
Pont dynamite has long leen a IA
vorite with those who use powder
extensively because it has always
given the best results, the action
OF the county commissioners In Sc
lecting this brand for Use in the
test work on the demonstration farm
geems to be a wise anG a we'll con-
sidered move.
The amount of dynamite which
the commissioners have purchased
will be sufficient t) shoot up two
acres. It is unders tood that these
two acres will be shot this fall and
planted next spring. Besides the
two acres thus shot another two
acres will be planted to the samo
croL, at the same time. Each par
eel, or crop, will receive the same
cultivation and the results at har-
vest time will demonstrate the ben
eft to be gained by breaking the
hardpan and farming with dyna'
mite"
