Mr1ing operations Tn Yavapai coun- | ty continue to increase in magnitude and importance and to vie with those of the famous Oatman district, of Mohave county, in scope. Also, the mines here are rivaling in popularity as investments those of Oatman and of Mohavc county in general In fact, the energizing of the mining in- dustry of this county, which dates from the outset of the current year, continues without abatement under financial and mineral conditions that bespeak unprecedented success.
 Mining engineers and prospective investors in mining property are in- specting Yavapai county mines and prospects in increasing numbers, and i:l most instances their investigations are followed by favorable reports and the investment of capital. Every ho- tel in this city and in Jerome is over crowded with guests, most of whom arc interested in some manner or other with the allied industries of mining and milling. Reports from local garages and livery stables indi- cate there are more vehicles at pres ent on the move to the various min ing sections of this county than ever before. Passenger travel via railway in and out of Prescott has practically doubled in volume since the first of the year. as have likewise the ship ments of ore to local and outside mills and smelters.
 Rich Tungsten Shipment.
 Homer Wood and partners shipped 3Oo0 pounds of 70 per cent tungsten ore to Pittsburg, late last week. The consignment went forward from their property in the Eureka district and has value in excess of Sl00OO. The initial shipment from the property, made in the month of March. last, consisted of 3,600 pounds of 65 per cent tungsten ore. At the price then paid for tungsten it netted Wood and partners better than S5,OO0.
 William Forbach and partners of Bisbee, arc operating the First Home property with satisfactory results 1 Several shipments of silver-lead ore nave been made at a profit, and an other shipment will go to the Hum l boldt smelter within a few days. The main working shaft, 300 feet deep, is l now being unwatered preparatory to engaging in mining operations on more extended scale The First Home is located in the Upper Big Bug dis trict and is one of number of valu- able mining properties in this county in which Ed.

The 0. A. Talbot grain com
pany, with the general offices for
Missouri territory in Laclede, is
making an active effort to help the
farmers to increase the oat yield in
North Missouri. Recently the
Missouri agricultural bureau got
out a limited edition of a bulletin
containing some valuable informa-
ton in regards to the selection of
seed oats and the preparation of
the seed ted but as the funds for
the printing and distribution had
been exhausted the Talbot COM
pany, at their own expense, had
an edition of 500 copies printed
and are mailing them out from this
Office this week. C. B. Talbot,
manager in the Missouri territory,
is devoting much time to the work
with the sole object of increasing
the yield by calling the attention
of farmers to the Importance of
testing the seed for termination
before sowing. Tests that have
been made show that only a small
per cent of the 1915 crop will
germinate and it behooves the
farmers to be careful about the
seed if they would have anything
like full crop this year.

Base Ball Meeting

About fifty were present at the
meeting held-at the Woodman hall
last Friday night to take steps to
furnish some financial backing to
the base ball team this season. Fl.
E. Maybee was chairman and A.
J. Caywood, secretary of the meet
ing. A committee composed of
Superintendent Crookshank, F. r.
Power and Fl. E. Brenner was ap-
pointed to see where suitable
grounds could be secured. An
organization was perfected by the
election of II. G. Carothers, presi-
dent; Max Jones, secretary and J.
FL. Nichols, treasurer. Those in
charge of the meeting and the
officers elected made it plain that
whatever assistance was given the
team it would be with the under.
standing that no Sunday games
were to be played and no one on
the team who played Sunday ball.
The high school team was present
and arrangements made for both
clubs to use same grounds. There
are enough players here to have a
first class team, the only question
being whether they will be willing
tocut out Sunday playing. There
seems to be a general inclination
among the people of the town and
community to give better support
and encouragement to the team
this year than ever before and if
the plans now under way mature
there will be some good games
here this season.
