Farmers Slay Cet Picric Acid. A Clemson bulletin informs us that South Carolina farmers can get moro picric acid. Tho U. S .Depar'. ment of Agriculture announces that a limited supply of this explosive is now on hand at Edgowood, Md., and that it is hoing offered to farmers for agricultural purposes free of cost ox copt tho charges for cartridging, packing and freight. This cost is 7 cents per pound for cartridging and packing and about two cents per pound for freight to a control point, plus freight to point of local deliv ery. 'Picric acid is a high explosive used In tho World War, and the govern ment is now distributing its remain ing supply as an agricultural explo sivo to stimulate land clouring activ-? ities. Picric acid has given entire satisftcalon to thousands of farmers in many States who have used lt tor stump blasting, ditch digging; eLc. One car of li,OOO pounds was used by South Carolina farmers early this year. Tho material is packed in cart ridges tho same Size and shape as used for dynamite, but tho picric acid cartridge weighs six ounces, while tho dynamite cartridge weighs S ounces. The six-ounce picric acid earlridgo has the samo explosive forc? as the S-ounco dynamite cart ridge. Slnco one pound of picric acid docs the samo work as ono and ono fottrth pound of IO per cent dyna mite, the cost of tho picric acid, nt around niuo couts per pound, is ap proximately one-third tho cost of tho equivalent quantity ol' dynamite at usual retail prices. It is clear, there fore, that It would pay farmers who have stump blasting and other ex plosivo work to do to secure picric acid from this government supply. lt ls ol' interest lo noto that picric acid keeps Indoilnitoly If stored in an ordinary dry place, ls not affected by hoot or cold, Is not. so sensitivo ns dy namite, and thoreforo even safor to handle, and glvos no Injurious effoots in tho way of hcadachos, such as como from dynnmito fumes.
