AGRICULTURAL INTERESTS.
New Hampshire State Boards Biennial
Report Made Public.

Concord, n. H.. Feb. 9.-The state
board of agriculture has made public its
biennial report TO the governor and
council. This report concludes as fol-
lows:
The comprehensive survey OF the agri-
cultural interests OF New Hampshire
leads to the conclusion that the financial
depression existing In other industries
Is shared by this, and, as IL was the
last OF these industries To feel the effects
OF hard times, IL will be the last TO re-
cover from its effects.
In view OF this fact we submit that
the most practical and economic means
Of aiding this important industry and
promoting it's interests on the part OF
the state is through educational meth
ods. and such should have liberal sup
port. We refer TO the diffusion OF prac-
tical agricultural instruction as well as
to general education. We also desire "a
respectfully call the attention OF the
legislature to the advisability of adopt
ing some means of state aid to rural
schools and highways, and refer TO the
system adopted in the neighboring
states as a possible guide in this Inn
rortant matter

MOVING A MOUNTAIN.
Done In Hurry by the Use of a Hundred
Thousand Pounds OF Powder.

A great section of the mountain at San
Diego overhanging Morena dam on one
side was torn off the other afternoon by
100000 pounds of powder, lifted several
feet straight up and then pushed bodily
forward 40 or 90 feet. trembling over the
mighty gorge below the dam and then fall
ing, with an awful roar, 125 feet, TO remain
hereafter for all time as the bulwark OF
the great dam being built to impound wa.
ter for the city.
The dam is 43 miles cast OF the city. Foi
two months or more preparations had been
made for the monster blast, in common
with another blast that is nearly ready.
The plan was TO cut tunnels into the side
of the mountain at various points about
the bed OF the creek and 10 place in these
tunnels, first, great stores Of black pow
der, which ignites slower than giant pow
der and therefore has more pushing pow
er and less shattcring effect. On the sur.
face and in places through the mountain
side were placed big deposits of giant pow
der for the purpose of shattering the mass
and lifting it up. According TO plans, the
black powder when it exploded would hurl
the mass straight forward making a
bridge of granite across the gorge and
blocking the stream.
The plans were carried out with the
greatest care. Danger was constantly fear
ed from the great mines of powder, but
all went well, and the blast was finally
ready. A lot of insulated electric wires,
connecting with each deposit OF powder
and attached TO exploderS, were gathered
into one circuit in tunnel across the
gorge and above the blast, where the fore
man stationed himself TO press the button
At 2:45 o'clock the signal was passed
along that all was ready. The workmen
had posted themselves at a safe distance
and eagerly watched 10 see the stupcndous
break in the hillside. Foreman Duggan
closed the switch, and "a wonderful scene
instantly followed. The side of the oppo'
site hill, composed of great powders and
masses Of granite in dikes, quiycred, rose
from its bed of centuries and shot out
thousands of little squirming tongues OF
dust, that gave the whole hill peculiar,
fuzzy appearance. This was for fraction
OF u second a crowl, like the angry dia'
pcson of the ocean, sounded deep down In
the hill ard before the spectators recover
ed their equilibrium after the earthquake
the mass was falling.
An inccssant rattle Of rock filled the all
like a regiment OF muskctry. Dust arose
I'm billows and hung over the wrecked hill
for an hour. The falling Of small rock con
tinucd for almost as long. When the dust
cleared away, it was found that the blast
had dslodgcd mass of rock 400 fcct ur
and down stream and an average OF &C
feet i'm height, completely bridging the
canyon. The engineers estimated that the
amount dislodgcd weighed 10000 tons.
The rock was thrown exactly as the engi
ncers had planned. San Francisco Chron'
