| Summary | "Farming with Dynamite: A Few Hints to Farmers" by E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Company is a practical guide written in the early 20th century. This publication serves as a promotional and instructional document aimed at farmers, advocating the use of dynamite as a tool for improving agricultural efficiency and productivity. The book primarily explores how to utilize "Red Cross" Dynamite effectively on farms, providing solutions that save time and labor while enhancing soil quality. The content of the book is centered around the various applications of dynamite in farming practices. It details methods for clearing land of stumps, trees, and boulders, as well as strategies for breaking up hard subsoils that impede agricultural activities. The text offers insights into how dynamite can facilitate deeper plowing, promote healthier root growth in orchards, and expedite the excavation of ditches and wells, thereby regenerating the productivity of worn-out farmland. Supporting its claims with testimonials and practical demonstrations, the book emphasizes not only the economic advantages but also the life-saving and time-efficient potential of incorporating dynamite into modern farming techniques.
