 Contrary to the expectations of the agriculturists of New Mexico, includ- ing MT. Hand, a Salt River valley farmer "cOpped out" those mules. At any rate he had the premier exhibit of wheat and oats and that announce ment was officially made.
 But MT. Hand hated to part with those mules and he says now that his prize was offered for the best wheat and oats raised in New Mexico and he adds that he is not engaged in the business of cultivating mules for AriZonians.
 There has been considerable cores pondence regarding the mules, be- tween Secretary Cowgirl of the board of trade and the management of the late fair at Albuquerque. but MT Hand is still standing pat and insist ing that they shall not cross the Ari- zona-New Mexico line.

A FAIR EXCHANGE
 WAS NO ROBBERY
So a Jury Decided in the Case of Charles Wyatt Charged With Jump ing Board Bill.

Deputy Sheriff Woods of Wickenburg arrived yesterday morning with a man who had been committed to seven days in the county jail for fighting. It takes two men to fight, but the other man had just money enough to pay his fine.
 Deputy Sheriff Wood said that Charles Wyatt, the carpenter, who was arrested here on Friday on the charge of beating Mrs. Dick Roberts of Wick enburg out of a board bill of SIT has been vindicated by a jury of his peers. All the facts tended to show that there was no intent to evade the payment of the bill and that when Wyatt began to buy meal tickets he had no such thought in his mind.
 One of the strongest points in his fla vor was a note of s75 which he held against the husband of Mrs. Roberts. She herself was in the note as security and though the note would not be due for nearly year, it was held by the jury to be a sufficient guaranty of the payment of the board bill.
 Wyatt was accordingly allowed to go his way, out nothing but his time and his car fare back to Phoenix if he should choose to come in this direction.

INTERNATIONAL
 A TEAM OF MULES
A New Mexico Mule Magnate Is Withholding Them From a Salt River Valley Farmer.

MT J. D. Hand of Los AlamOs is a "welcher," holding back a team of mules belonging to the Salt River valley, and he expresses an intention of keeping them. In his enthusiasm last summer and without an adequate knowledge of the agricultural re- sources of this part of the country, and also, perhaps to convey an i'm pression of his own munificence, MT. Hand offered two husky mules which he valued at S75O for the best col
 lective exhibit of wheat and oats on exhibition at the fair, which was to

The last week of the great contest has arrived. How they will all work this week. Our hats are off to all of the hustlers and may the best ones win out,
 The great struggle is for the top line not entirely for the Vose grand piano, for these youngsters have great pride in showing their friends that they are made of real metal that can win. It may also be of interest that notwith- standing the fact that the top one will choose the piano, the most of the hust- lers are after the scholarships. They are anxious to get educations for them selves and this is the opportunity that none overlooked. There are prizes for many and the hustlers are not over looking the fact that the better the po- sition in the line at the close of the contest, the better the choice of prizes will be. A more complete description of the prizes that are being raced for will be found in another column of this mornings Republican.
 THAT TURKEY
 Remember that the new subscriptions are what count the fastest in points, and the one that has the greatest num- Der of new subscriptions to his credit, for the entire contest will be the one who will carve the turkey Christmas day. and there will be some laudable pride in that fact

WIVES OBTAIN TWICE AS MANY Dr.
voRCEs AsHUsBANDs.
Two.thirds of the total number
of divorces grnated in the twenty
year period covered by this investl-
CATION were granted to the wife.
Without any reference to the
question of which party is the more
frequently responsible for the mar
tial unhappiness that leads to d.
vorce, it may be said that wife
has legal ground for divorce more
frequently than the husband; that
is to say, there are certain well,re,
cognized and comparatively cQmf-
mon grounds that are more readily
applicable as against the husband
than as against the wife: Notably
there is 'Eneglect to proyiGe'' OF
nonsupport, which, for the husband
seeking divorce, is hardly "a" 3
able grounH
-, although the present
investigation found 6 cases in the
state of Utah, in which the hus-
band obtained a divorce on that
ground. Cruelty, although not in
frequently the ground for divorces
granted to husband, is more gener-
ally existentas a cause for the wife's
seeking a divorce. Five divorces for
are granted to the wife for
every 1 granted to the husband.
CAUSE OF DIVORCE.
The most com non single ground
for divorce is desertion. This ac-
counts for 38.9 per cent Of all di
vorces (period 1887 to 49O6); 1914
per cent, or almost one halfof those
granted to the husband, and 1876
per cent, or one third, of those
granted to the wife.

Marriages and Divorces.

year 1900. This comparison indl
Gates that divorce is at present two
and one half times as common, com
pared with married population, as
it was forty years ago. A divorce
rate of 200 per 100000 married
population is equivalent to 2 pei
/, 200 married population. Assam
ing that 1000 married people re-
present 500 married couples, it fol-
lows that in each year 4 married
couples out of every 1000 secure a
divorce.
This does not mean that only 4
marriages out of 1000 are termin-
ated by divorce. The rate, it will
be noted, is an annual rate, con
tinuously operative, and comes far
short of measuring the probability
of ultimate divorce, The availah'r.
data indicate, however, that not
less than marriage in II is ulti
mately terminated by divorce.
Divorce rates appear to be much
higher in the United States than in
any foreign countries for which
states relating to this subject have
been obtained.
ONE DIVORCED WIFE IN EIGHT
GETS ALIMONY.
Alimony was demanded in Is per
cent of the divorces granted to the
wife, and was granted in 1927 per
cent. In other words, 3 wives out
Of Is asked for alimony, and 2 out
Of Is, or 1 out of 8, obtained it.
The proportion of husbands who
asked for alimony was 2 per cent,
