you will note from this report. Should
his fund be distributed as the COM
nissioners of the land office have ap-
,ortioned it, it would relieve the situa-
ion very materially in many counties
n the state. This fund is not for the
benefit of the farmers in certain coun-
ties or groups OF counties.
81 would suggest that no more loans
be made in such counties as show an
excess of apportionment, and that all
maturing loans in those counties be re-
tired as they fall due till the amount
loaned falls within its apportionment
For your information | will state
that on July /, of this year, there was
money on hand available for farm
loans in the amount of S599,593.1S.
"In conclusion, | will say that in
my judgment, the commissioners of
the land office are Not to blame for
these matters that | have brought to
your attention, as every one of them
are state officials, having other du-
ties to perform, and that the matter

Today dynamite is being manuiac-
tured in the United States at the rate
of 25O,OOO,OOO pounds year. Filling
1000 freight cars, it is constantly
being transported over the railroads
of the country. Though it is the
third most powerful explosive in gen
eral use, it has been tanned so that
railroad companies receive 1t for
transportation almost as readily as
they do coal. Nitroglycerin, however
is still under the transportation ban
in both the United States and Eu-
rope. Dynamite is TO-DAY one oil the
most important factors in the prog
ress of civilizations. Without 1t the
mighty engineering achieyements-
the Panama canal, the mountain ana
river tunnels-could rot be , accom-
plished It takes an important part
in building the modern skyscrapers;
it is used to mine the necessary huge
quantities of iron and other metals
that enter into structures. 1t blasts
out the millions of tons of coal that
supply heat, light and power, and give
life to the locomotives that bring
food and clothing to the population
of cities. 1t Is helping to grow the
food we eat-the modern scientific
farmer uses It to plow his land, It's
explosions shattering the sub-soll
which no plov ever reaches. 1t Is
said to increa5e the crops greatly
in quality and by 80 per cent in quan-
tity. Today dynamite is used to tight
great conflagrations, to fight wars
and to prepare for large part of
the progress of the world.
