out a growing liveoak tree 28 inches
in diameter that stood in a three
acre ""patch' I needed for nursery
work, beginning, at 9 a. m. and having
my hands planting pecan seed where
the tree stood at 4 p. mi of the same
day. It cost $2.60, broke the ground
well, killed all the roots and left no
unsightly stump. I could have cut
the tree and lopped off the limbs and.
dragged it away for a trifling cost.
Figure it out. Experiment con
servatively. Do not act until you
have full and competent instructions
and follow instructions closely, Use
fuse at first rather than the battery.
Make notes of all work and compare
with old methods for results.
And don't be "scared". Dynamite
