HOW THEY BLOW up
Free Illustrated Lecture on
Thresher Explosions at Nez-
perce May 4.-voll-
mer May 8.

DIR. H. II Brown, Of the Bureau
Of Chemistry of the T. S. Depart
ment Of Agriculture, has just com
plefed a series of very interesting
lectures on grain dust or smut ex-
plosions in south Idaho. Every
where DIR. Brown 5 talks were lis
tened 10 with eager interest. He
speaks from wide experience and
brings his message in a forceful
manner. For his demonstration
he uses motion pictures, lantern
slides and miniature dust explo-
Sions. Ordinary smut or corn
flour readily explodes when blown
through the air in the presence Of
A. open flame. There is no room
for doubt that dusts Of many
kinds easily explode under proper
conditions.
Along with his demonstrations
DR. Brown shows the working Of
effective preventafives and pre-
eaufionary measures. Nearly one
hundred threShing machines blow
up in the Northwest every season.
Most Of these could be saved III
proper precaution were taken.
The same holds true of elevator
and mill explosions.
We are glad TO announce that
DIR. Brown will give has address
NJ the Artic in Nexperce at 9 80
saturday. and Film Theatre, voIl-
mer at 2 80 Friday, May 3, 1918.
All persons interested in eleva-
TORS. mills, threshing machines, or
the storage of grain generally can
not afford to miss this lecture.
The University Extension Service.
Boise, is cooperating with the De
partment Of Agriculture in this
work.
Mr.. Geo. L. Zundd, plant d.
sease specialist Of the q. S. De-
pariment Of Plant Industry. will
accompany DR.. Brown and will be |
prepared TO talk on the Treatment
Of the Smuts Of Small Grains.

noted the center Of the fire APP

by the time the populace and fire
boys arrived on the scene both /
the restaurant and pool hall were

buildings were seriously threaten

fact that no wind was stirring

arrangements for additional fire
