Beasts Demonstration Proves Very Valuable in Trench Digging
A blasting demonstration led by Fred J. Stewart in cooperation with Harold Montgomery county agent and the board of supervisors showed trench digging could be done with explosives. A small charge set off a center cap, 14 inches fuse, creating a trench about nine feet long, six feet deep, and 14 feet wide at the top tapering to two feet at the bottom. The blast hurled rocks and dirt about 206 feet into the air. Attendance suffered due to mud and weather, but those who attended were rewarded and the supervisors endorsed the demonstration.
