A Warning. 



A beginner will require 50 lbs. of explosive to give the method a 

 thorough trial. He should start on medium-sized sound stumps, as 

 they are easier to operate on. Necessary case should be observed 

 when handling explosives, and he should be extremely careful of the 

 detonators. He should also bear in mind that large bits of wood will 

 sometimes fly 1 50 yards. Detonators should never be stored and kept 

 with explosives in the same receptacle.
