MORE PUMPS FOR
 TOMBSTONE CONS.

TOMBSTONE, March 1.-The first consignment of the new pumps that are to be installed on the 1000 foot level of the big shaft of the Tombstone Consolidated company, consisting of three cars, arrived here today and force of mechanics under Master Me chanic Sam Garrct was put to work at once getting them in readiness to be lowered. The station has been cut out for the pumps and has been ready for some time.
 The new pumps are of the Prescott make, the same as those that are now installed and at work on the 500, 700, and 800 foot levels, but are of the fly wheel variety. Two of these pumps are to be placed on the 100 foot level. They will each have a capacity of handling 1900 gallons per minute and will pump from that level direct to the surface. When the new pumps are in operation the company will be in condition to handle l0,000,000 gal. Ions every twenty-four hours, if occa- sion should demand it, which will be the largest pumping plant in Arizona. The company does not expect to have to handle this amount of water, but should an immense flow be encountered they will be ready for it. The water col umn that will be used from the 1000 foot level is not in the shipment with the pumps, but is expected to arrive here about the time the pumps are ready.
 At present the pumps in the mine are handling about 4,500,000 gallons, about the same amount they have been handling for a number of months, there being no material increase. and if any thing a slight decrease.
 The operations of the company's vari. ous shafts have been uninterrupted, and the mill continues to crush over 200 tons per day of ore taken out frop the upper workings of the big shaft with good results.
 At the Emerald the outlook is most encouraging. The extent of the cop per orc that was discovered sometime since has not been determined. The winze that is being sunk from the s00l foot level is still in ore and there has been no diminishing in the width of the ore body.

THE INSTITUTES
 WERE SUCCESS
EXPERIMENT STATION OFFICIALS HAVE GOOD MEETINGS IN CHA VALLEY TOWNS - PRACTICAL LECTURES WERE GIVEN.

TlCSON, March ll.-Professor Clo- ,bisr of the University of Arizona, has mst returned from the Gila Valley where he has been conducting an eight weeks short course in agriculture at Thatcher and holding series of farm. CTS institutes.
 He states that there was total en. ,oument in all classes offered in the short course of III students. Fifteen iarers engaged in actual business found time to take part T all of the work, and they were enthusiastic in their es- inmates of the benefits received.
 From one to four farmers institutes were held at each of the following places: Thatcher, Pima, Central, Saf ford. Layton, Solomonville, Artesia, Lebanon, Matthews, Eden, Bryce, Hub bard and Graham. These meetings were addressed by Professors Clothier, Colt, and Thornber and Director Forbes, the following subjects being diseussed: Fruit culture, spraying, the dairy COW, home improvement, grain smut, market gardening, farmers organizations, ana 0l management. Several meetings sheduled were not held on account of ainy weather and high water but 32 meetings were held during the eight weeks and were attended by 1913 people.
 The success of these meetings in the Gla Valley is largely due to the splen, did organization existing among the Mormon people of this community, led by their able president Andrew Kim. ball, Principal A. c. Peterson of the Later Day Saints Academy acted as Farmers Institute chairman for the valley, and the bishops of the various wards acted as chairmen in their re- Peetive communities, advertising the institutes and offering their churches H meeting places. The two papers pub- iBhed at Satford, the Guardian and the Journal, were especially kind and help tul in offering their columns for re- ports, in publishing programs. and in giving general advertisements of the neetings without charge.
