prepared by the United States Department
OF Agriculture.)
A method OF rendering negligible the
heavy damage that would otherwise be
inflicted by the sweet-potato weevu
has been found by the United
States Department Of Agriculture. A
review Of the work done In Florida
and Georgia is contained In depart
ment circular POI, bureau Of ento-.
mOlogy, United States Department of
Agriculture. Measures successful In
the eradication Of the pest in that sec
tion are outlined briefly as follows:
The old field should be thoroughly
cleaned over at harvest, the vines be-
ing fed to stock or burned. and the
field hogged over.
The potatoes should be banked as
far away as possible from the old
field and from the site selected for the
next years potato field.
All potatoes on the farm should be
disposed Of early.
No potato or plants from the old
crop should be used on the farm and
no draw-bed should be planted.
Old potato banks should be cleaned
as soon as empty.
Only draws from sources known to
be free from the weevH should be used.
The Ge0rgia-Florida location was se-
lected for the test because the situa-
ti0n there was serious. the section in

GTBBSTOWN. N. J., June g.
Shortly after o'clock yesterday
morning the magazine building of
the eastern laboratory of the DUPONT
plant was destroyed by an explosion
which shook the surrounding towns.
Every family for miles was awaken
ed from slumber, houses rocked and
a number of windows were broken
here and at Paulsboro.
The building was a one-story
frame, isolated in the eastern section
of the plant, and contained more
than 200 pounds OF nitroglycerine.
It was blown to pieces. but no one
was injured, as there was no one
near the building.
What caused the explosion Is not
known. although an investigation is
under way. People living here and
at the powder plant rush
ed to the gates, while others living
in nearby towns rushed to tele-
phones, but soon learned that no
one was injured. Explosions at the
plant are usually followed by fires,
but there was no building near
enough TO be set on fire and there
was nothing left of the building to
burn.
