Making the Hole 



IN blasting stumps, the first thing to do is to make 

 the hole to receive the charge of dynamite. 

 When removing large stumps such as are common 

 in the Northwest, the charge should be placed so 

 that there will be 16 to 24 inches between it and the 

 bottom ai:d the center of the stump (See cut). The 

 "shot" then lifts the stump clear with much of its 

 roots, instead of merely splitting it. 



To make the hole, loosen ground with crowbar 

 and clean out with long-handled tilling spade. 



The subsequent steps in stump blasting will be 

 described in future issues of this paper. 



For utmost economy use Pacific Stumping Powder 

 —the new Du Pont Farm Dynamite. A 1% x 8 inch 

 Btick is equal in strength to a l-'s x 8 inch stick of any 

 standard stumping powder— and Pacific Stumping 

 costs 30% less per stick. You get Vz more sticks for 

 every dollar. Buy it from your local dealer.
