LIMITED Merely Our Opinion In our opinion, the crook, as repre- sented in “The Bubble” at the Chau- tauqua Tuesday ecvening, had noth- ing on “Cy” Thomson of Austin. Many people are wondering how Thomson got away with so much money without the company finding it out before this. Included in the number of people who are trying to figure out how he did it is the Hor- mel Packing Co. —Its Their Business— Prepare for the Fall Twin City dealers are advertising a special sale on furs and fur coats.

Fer stump and rock blasting, picric acid can be used /in exactly the same way as dynamite is uzed. The charges should be placed in the same manner, and same number of cartridges should be used in the charge as in the case of dynamite. As has been said, a No. 8 instead of a No. 6 cap should ke used with picric acid. Tor blasting ditches, the electric method of fiyng must be used be- cause the picric acid is sol insensi- tive that it will not propagate.
