Temples New Industry.

/ President F. A. Hough of the
Tempe Mesa Produce company yester-
day closed a contract with c. L. Rog-
ers & Sons of Detroit, Michigan, for an
eighty ton milk condenser which will
be added to the already extensive
plant of the company.
The installation of this new indus
try will mark the most important step
yet taken by this section. Without
increasing the cost of production one
cent, it will Immediately increase the
price of the milk of the south side p
per cent, and every rancher as well as
every other business man will become
direct beneficiary, for it will be the
means of annually bringing to Tempe
thousands of dollars of outside money.
The present output of milk on this
side of the river is estimated at 30. 600
pounds daily. The capacity of the
condenser will be $4,000 pounds per
day or nearly three times the amount
now produced. With the present sup
ply of milk carload can be turned
out every two days. In addition to
the condenser there will be "a depart
ment for the manufacture of all the
cans used in handling the product.
When the plant shall have reached its
full capacity, thirty persons will be
required to operate it. There will
be no trouble in finding a ready sale
for the product, as we are reliably in
formed that the present supply is
barely sufficient for the home con-
sumption, and China, Japan, as we'll
as other foreign countries are in the
market for immense quantities which
the importers have been unable to
supply. The people of this section
are to be congratulated, and it is
hoped that the most sanguine expecta-
tions of the promoters will be fully
realized. The work of preparing suit
able buildings for the machinery will
be commenced at once and will be
pushed to the earliest possible COM

The new 10-stamp mill for the
Brooklyn mine is nearing completion

done. Messrs. J. NJ. Dale and W. I.

grand success. The Brooklyn has

manner for the past six or seven
years, but the work has been done on

average about so per ton, but it is
thought when the permanent water
level is reached the ore will be of a
concentrating character and will be of
higher grade. A steam hoist will also
be installed at once and it is expected
to handle about thirty tons of ore
per day. The mine produces some wa

work of putting in the new mill and
will have full charge of the work of

Col. Small and Prof. Bateman Visit
the Monroe Mines and Are
Enthusiastic.

Donald G.. Monroe, of the Mon
roe Consolidated Mines company, has
had during the past few days two east
ern gentlemen as guests at his home
in this city. These are Col. j. T..
Small of Lewiston, Maine, and Prof.
L. c. Bateman, of Auburn, a nearby
city. They are out in this section for
travel and pleasure, and they seem to
be getting much of both. Yesterday,
in company with Mr.. Monroe, they
drove over to the Monroe group of
mines and made careful inspection
of the same. Since Mr.. Monroe has
been in New York some marvellous
developments have been made at this
mine, and the body of rich ore now
in sight fairly dazzled the two gentle
men from the east. 1t is said that
Col. Small has purchased quite heav-
lily of the stock. A Journal Miner re-
porter saw Mr.. Small this morning
and had brief but pleasant interview.
He said: 81 have visited every sec
ton of our country, but it seems to
me that this is by far the richest in
mineral resources. The Monroe mines
are simply marvellous properties, and
if l am not mistaken will soon be
ranked among the greatest producers

pie. They seem to be friendly and

to speak a good word for Mr.. Monroe.
He is one of the best fellows | ever

He has got big proposition in his
mine and is bound to make his pile. "
Mr.. Bateman is fully as enthus-
iastic as Col. Small. 1t has been more
difficult for us to catch him in an in
terview. for since striking town he has
been going like a streak of lightning.
lie is a hustler from the word go, and
must be mine of wealth to his paper.
The last that we saw of him he was
hunting after a rattlesnake, and said
that he wanted to write snake story
for the readers of his paper at home.
Mr.. Bateman also intends to invest
in the Monroe mines, and
we are confident that he will never re-
greet the same. Prescott gives these
gentlemen a cordial welcome to our
city and hopes they will visit this
section often.
Messrs. Bateman and Small left this
for Los Angeles where
they will spend a few days and
from there they will visit several of
the coast resorts. Mr.. Small will also
examine some mining properties in
California before starting on their re-
turn trip to the New England states.
