Another million pounds Of n;.
ric acid, enough to blow tL.
stumps> from 1000 acres has irs+
been allotted To Wisconsin farm,
ers for land clearing purposas
This Is the second share made the
Badger state this season.
Large quantities of the evrlo-
sive Is now ready for shipment A.
cOrding TO John Swenehart of the
University College of Agriculture
and IN charge of the distribution
Five cars have already been 5a.
hvered and farmers desiring shin
ments are advised to get in toucb
at once with their county agent
through whom the government is
making this distribution.
Farmers who ordered 2O
pounds from their first allotment
may now increase their order 3r0
pounds if they so desire. Orders
will be accepted for quantities nm
to 500 pounds per farmer until
the supply is exhausted. The pic
ric acid is distributed in lO0-uoun5
cases only.
The new allotment will be sold
at a reduction of one-half cent a
pound due to a cut in freight
rates, and will cost Wisconsin
farmers 11.2 cents a pound or
S11.2O for 100 pound lots. As
formerly, where less than car lots
are used, the local freight is to
be paid by the farmer.
Wisconsin farmers are awake 10
their opportunity to make use Of
picric acid while it lasts" SAYS
Swenehart. Lincoln county has
ordered three carloads and more
orders are coming in. In that
county the farmers feel that this
war explosive Is even better than
the dynamites they have been US
ing and much cheaper because it
is a leftover war material.
Five hundred pounds of picric
acid properly used on most farms
will make at least 10 new cleared
acres and in many places more.
Development companies should be
anxious to back their settlers fin
ancially to make is possible 70 get
more land under cultivation.
Banks are lOaning money 70 ener-
getic men to buy picric acid. Even
where farmers are loaned to the
limit, money for pierre viii be.

Some of the important facts
about picric acid is given 10y this
land clearing specialist are:
1t works cartridge for cartridge
with 40 per cent dynamite.
Cartridges cost about 4 cents
each, less than half the cost Of 4OI
per cent dynamite.
Picric acid does not freeze.
Does not cause headaches.
