PICRIC ACID :
FOR FARMERS?
Over 12,000,000 Pounds of ?
Explosive Will Be Disx
tributed. ;
More than 12,000,000 pounds of 1
picric acid, one of the highest known
explosives, accumulated for war purposes'
and made useless to the War
Department by the armistice, will be :
distributed to farmers for agricul- J
tural purposes.
When the war ended the army had <
on hand this immense stock of picric acid
and in addition more than 20,- ]
000,000 pounds of T. N. T. The latter j
was distributed to various govern- t
mental agencies for use in railroad
construction in Alaska, public roads '
in the national parks and various projects
on Indian reservations. None
of the, T. N. T. was distributed to individuals
and thus far not a single
accident has marked the use or transportation
of the millions of pounds of
the high explosive, according to officials
of the Bureau of Mines.
The question of what to do with the
12,000,000 pounds of picric acid
puzzled the government officers for
some time and the War Department
had almost decided to tow the explosive
out to the sea and dump it over- (
board in the interests of the public .(
safety when it was decided to institute
a series of experiments in an ef- ,
fort to find some safe commercial use
for it. The experiments were conducted
by the Bureau of Mines and disclosed
many ways in which picric acid
could be used safely and profitably on
farms, such as in blasting out stumps ,
and rocks and breaking up land. It
was accordingly decided to distribute
the explosive, practically free of
charge, to farmers. 1
Picric acid, a highly crystalline .
powder having a lemon yellow color (
is 18 per cent stronger than 40 per
cent straight nitro-glycerine dynamite,
according to the Bureau of
Mines. It should never be used in
bulk, officials say, and its use should
be restricted to re-dipped paraffined
paper catridges.
The 12,000,000 surplus stock, located
at Sporta, Wis., and Wingate,
N. M., will be distributed to farmers
through the Bureau of Public Roads

GOOD RETURNS
When a city girl feels the need of
money?her own money, to pay for
the things girls imagine they must
have these days?she goes to work in
an office, a store, or a factory, according
to her education and opportunity.
In the (f)untry a girl, with
much the same longings for nice
things and "srood times." looks tn tV>p
poultry yard, the milk house, or the
garden for her spending money. If
her parents are the right kind, if they
are intelligent enough to help her and
encourage her in her work, ^he will
soon establish herself as a semi-independent
member of the family. If,
as often happens, the parents are not
disposed to have such goings-on, and
there is no home-demonstration agent,
no girls' club, no extension work of
any kind in the community, the country
girl goes to the city and the farming
regions have lost one more potential
home and family.
No doubt exists in the minds of
men and women of large experience J
in the extension work carried on by
the United States Department of Ag-1
riculture in cooperation with State)
agricultural colleges that the economic
appeal is the entering influence
needed in getting their clubs or bureaus
started in rural regions. Onco
the young people have learned a way
to earn money the desire for the
things it will buy asserts itself, and
home betterments and improved living
conditions follow naturally.
Down in Arkansas a girls' canning
iclub started a contest to determine
which of the members could produce
the most tomatoes at the least expense,
and with the lowest percentage
of waste. Annet Sargo, on the Mount
Valley route, near Hot Springs, grew
3,140 pounds of tomatoes on onetenth
of an acre, at a cost of $31.40
and net returns of $109. With the
same expense her sister, Fannie,
grew 3,020 pounds and had a net return
of $107.89. Ada Rosamond grew
2,803 pounds, costing $27.42, with a
net return of $70.66, and Ruby Waddell,
at Bonnerville, had 3,070 pounds,
costing $29.91, with net returns of
$68.

Columbia. ? Advance information ?
from the Annual Report of the South |
Carolina Sweet Potato Association for
the year 1920-21 brings some very interesting
information for the farmers
in the State of marketing operations
under a modified "California Plan."
The Association operated seven pools
the members receiving the following
returns:
N. I Stock (crated) $1.24 per crate.
No. 2 Stock (crated) $0.92 per crate.
No. I Stock (bulk) $1.79 per 100
lbs.
No. 2 Stock (bulk) $1.39 per 100
lbs.
"No grade" (bulk) $1.56 per 100

A late pool netted $1.00 per bushel
for No. 1 Stock. Prices all not F. O.

On about one third of the shipments |
made by the Association overcharges
of freight were made. Claims have
been made against the railroads, and
are being pushed, and as fast as co1
jlected, remittances will be made to
| members. In this connection it was
ifound that South Carolina was being
discriminated against in freight rates,
j This matter has been ad justed and
i will not handicap the shippers the
| coming season.
J The Association has worked with
the railroads on the subject of containers
with the result that only
j crates will be used to market the next
i crop. The crate measures 12" \ 12"
x 1S:>t " inside dimensions. The Association
is working to perfect plans
to purchase crates for its members for
i use the coming year and thus make a
considerable saving of money.
Most of the last season's shipments
were marketed in the South Western
and Middle Western States, and it is
interesting to note the large number
of cars shipped to Southern points.
