clear $4,000 acres Of land and has made
a saving Of over $4,000 for the farm
ers Of the state"
The economy OF this explosive Is
by the department in n re-
cent circular showing that last falls
distribution saved the farmers about
$500, 700 over the cost of other eXplos-
ives. There are now available some
100000 pounds of picric acid, and OF
this amount 100000 are available to
each of the lake states-Michigan,
Wisconsin and Minnesota.
Picric acid is high explosive which
was used in large quantities during the
war, and is now being distributed to
farmers for AGRICULTURAL purposes, says
the department. No charge is made
by the government for the explosive
itself. hut as il has TO be dried out and
cartridged before il can be used for
peaceful purposes the cost Of this
work must be paid by the farmers.
Picric acid is a comparatively safe
explosive and is used in the same way
that other agricultural explosives are
used. Ii has several advantages over
