School Closed.

At a meeting of the school trustees this week, it was decided to close the school on account of dlphtheria. This winds up the winter term which was ably taught by Mir. M. A. Grouse, of Mesa. Those who are familiar with the school will say that the pupils made a better show ing under his management than eger before. The only fault was tat the parents did not take iough interest in the attend O. their children, which way very irregular. MT Grouse will teach the school again next term, and being familiar with the school and it's environments, he will know where and how to begin.
 Mir. Grouse left for his home in Mesa Thursday morning and will have charge of his apiary during the summer months.

tlon throughout the greater part of Arizona during March and the early part of April, but the con- ditions of moisture have been ex- ceptionally favorable, and the agricultural prospects are now generally excellent. The snows in the mountains during the lat ter part of the winter, supple mented by more recent rains, have caused the irrigation canals to run full of water for sometime, and they are still running full. The rains have also placed the soil in fine condition for blowing and cultivating. The growth of alfalfa has been retarded some what by cool weather, but the crop is very heavy in the lower agricultural valleys and in many places it IS about ready for cut ting. It is somewhat weedy, however. In the northern coun- ties this crop is starting nicely. Small grains are generally doing very well. Spring sowing has, however, been somewhat delay ed by cold weather in the north ern counties In some localities in the Gila and Salt River valleys barley is heading. Gardening has been delayed somewhat by cold weather, but gardens gener- ally are doing well, and in some localities in the lower agricultur- al valleys garden truck is on the market, There. has been some damage to fruit by cold weather. In parts of Navajo county the peach crop is reported to have been killed. In general, however, the fruit propects are good.
