Dr. W. B. Roberts, of Titusride
has invented a 1 pounds torpedo to
be used in clearing land of stumps
and large atones by blowing them in
to uinad pieces. A Tittsvide paper
speaks of the work of the invention
as follows : The first experiment was
tried on a l trge stump. A hole was
made down under the stumD bv
means of a crowbar, and the torpedo
placed iu this excavation. The spec
tators then withdrew to a safe dis
tance. Mr. Erastus Roberts applied
the match to the fuse aud immediate
ly had basine88 in another part of
tne held- The explosion that follow
ed was not quite so extensive as was
generally expected, but was sufficient
to scatter tne stump, in small pieces,
all over the field. Roots and all
gave way, and nothing was left ex
cept a small hole ia the ground.
Torpedoes were then applied to oth
er stumps with an equally satisfac
tory result
Ihe explosives were then tried on
great rocks that were imbedJed in
the soil, and these were shivered in
pieces and thrown from their places
m the twinkling of au eye. What
would have taken a team of horses
and their driver an hour to do
uone in seven miaates without any
fatiguing labors to any one. This
invention, if it may be called euch,
WiU create a great revolution iu clear
ing up waste land, or land thick with
stumps and heavy stones. One of
these immense rocks or large stumps
can be removed for not to exceed 50
cents and without much of ny work.
A man working with average agility
should clear out about sixty stumps
in a single -day. When tfce rapidity
with wuioh tnis work is done and the
cast are -considered, the value of this
method -becomes very apparent
That 'truth is strongrr than fiction,
finds another illustration in tne fol
lowing from the PiUsuurg despatch
