HIGHLY EXPLOSIVE

Do you know that ordinary -four, the kind that IS used 70
bake bread, is highly explosivef
Government chemists, after seven years study, tell some
interesting things about it.
Since 1860, at least 80 -four mills have been wrecked ~
explosions Of -four dust. Oldtimers will recall the record eS-
plosion of 1878, when five separate -four mills were blown tP
in Minneapolis with a loss of Is lives.
In 1917 a similar explosion in a grain elevator destroyed
enough grain to feed 100000 people for a year.
David J. Price, engineer in charge OF Uncle Sans inyesit
CATION of dust explosions, says that dust in general is a 1dga
explosive.
Combustible dust is an unavoidable byproduct of abeut
q, 900 manufacturing plants in our country.
Terrific explosions Turk in the dust OF coal, cork, alum

Many factories have been burned to the ground by he
started by spontaneous combustion in dust accumulated Deep
ly on rafters.
The housewife, however, can go ahead baking pread
swiping dust unexpectedly after sweeping, without fear.
For dust, while explosive, is hard to "set off"
The thing that appeals to the scientific side OF your nina
is the enormous power that must be locked up in everything.
Some day the stupendous power locked up In tiny atoms
will be released and utilized by man.
Search for this atomic-power utilization is keeping many
q scientist working overtime in his laboratories. For years it
has been one of Sir Oliver Lodges main goals.
The fact that -four or dust of such things as cork and
rubber contain explosive powers like dynamite suggests that
a generation or two from now people may be using entirely
different kinds of power than at present.
For all we know, gasoline, coal and electricity may be.
come obsolete, their place taken by a small machine that will
release the thunderbots locked up in tiny atoms. This is
visionary, but possible.
