The Members of the Apache County Stock Growers Association have been hard at work the past four weeks attend ing the general roundup of that asso- citation. The benefit to the stock inter- ests of the county derived by organiza- tions of this character become more ap- parent as it's workings become more fully understood. It is reported that a large number of ''crooked' cattle are being found. and already three arrests have been made for cattle stealing, with fair prospect of more to follow. It is the universal sentiment of the stockmen that the frying pan style of branding must go.

It is becoming very mo- notonous. and the only way to remedy the evil is by complete extermination of the devils at the hands of the settlers themselves; they are the actual sufferers and these annual raids will only be done away with when they take the matter in their own hands and begin a system of warfare in keeping with that practiced by the Indians, and which should only cease when extermination has been accomplished:
