the Bureau of
Mines.
AUDITOR rs NOTIFIED

Auditor Gardner has received Or
ders lifting the ban on the use or

poses, which is good news to many
farmers who use dynamite on the
farm.
The communication was from the
director of the United States bureau

advantage Of it to clear many OF
their fields this spring.
The ban had prevented many farm
ers from reclaiming land by remov-
ing stumps, ditching and other similar
work, the shortage Of labor, making
it difficult to carry, out the work
through other methods, for the past
year.
Alien Enemies Excepted.
The withdrawal of the ban does
not, however, apply to alien enemies.
They will not be permitted to manu-
facture, purchase or sell the explo-
sfves. The order is signed by Clar-
ence Hall, chief engineer of the bu-
reau Of explosives.
The three points of the revocation
order as outlined in the letter re
ceived here are as follows:
/. ALI regulations relating to the
purchase, use and possession Of ex-
plosives for reclaiming land, stump
blasting, ditching and other agricul-
tural purposes are revoked aid no
further licenses will be issued.
2. These revocations do not allow
enemy aliens or subjects of coun-
try allied with an enemy of the
United States to manufacture, pur-
chase or sell, use or possess explo-
sives Of any kind.
8. 1t IS further provided that
nothing in the above shall release any
person whatsoever from complying
with the law in the matter of safe
guarding and storing explosives.

GUARD
REGULATIONS
New Regulation Requiring One
Hundred Men to Company

Washington, Aug. 9.-Just before

out the substance of conference he

which applies alike everywhere.
Heretofore, it was necessary for
each company Of the National Guard
to have not more than 65 men but UNI
der new regulations it will be neces-
sary to have. 100 This increase, Ia
the opinion Of the Georgia Senator,
will probably work much hardship to
Southern companies. It was explained
py him to Mr. Baker that it is COM
paratively easy 20 organize companies
in the South with ,65, men but would
probably be very difficult to do SO
with 100. Under present regulations
companies not mastering 100 men will
not share in federal appropriate
The war department. has a, plan to
let one-half Of the companyscome from
one town and one-half from another,
but this plan, as seen here, would not
work satisfactorily for the reason
that in many section of the country,
especially in the South. there is great
pride taken in the local militia and no
town with a good company wishes to
see half of it recruited from another
town. This plan would take away
much Of the rivalry that now exists
between different towns and cities to
have the best companies.
The matter has not yet been de-
cided, but Senator Harris will use his
strongest influence to have the IS men
rule adopted as it formerly was be-
fore the National Guard was taken
into the war.
