TO FLY AFTER CATTLE.

Cattle ranching on the Southwest plains with airplanes was the sugges- tion made by B. F. Panky of Lamy, N. M., who is the owner of one of the biggest cattle ranches in the south west. In an interview given out at Fl Paso this week Panky said the air plane could be used to great advan- tage in making a general inspection of the wide range country, much of which was impossible to automobiles, and added that transportation by horses was too slow for the modern cattle industry. He said he has an order for an airplane to be construct ed according to his special needs and which he will use on his New Mexico ranches.

LARGE SHIPMENTS TEXAS
 CATTLE COMING HERE

Dr. E. B. Perrin, head of the Perrin Land & Cattle Co.,, one of the largest range concerns in Arizona, with head quarters at Williams, announces that shipping of a large number of Texas cattle has been decided upon to land he owns in two localities, one lot for the Baca grant in this county, and the other the Barbacomari grant in Santa Cruz county. The stock is to come from certain section in Texas where the drouth has been prevailing for over two years. This move is for the purpose of saving the animals from perishing, which is inevitable if they are kept in that county. It is stated one shipment will come over the Santa Fe and the other for the south, over the Southern Pacific, de- livery to begin at once. The number of head is not given.-Prescott Jour nal Miner.

NEW LIVE STOCK LAW.

California is now working under the live stock law, which is in many ways similar to our Arizona law Brands recorded in the office of tht county recorder will not be recogniz. ed by the Cattle Protective Board Under the present law all cattle brands must be recorded with the Cat. tie Protective Board at Sacramento This is regardless of whether or moi they have been recorded in the office of the county recorder.
 The present law also requires that all persons who are slaughtering cat. tie as business must obtain li- cense from the Board.

MAIL THE CARDS.

The postcard system adopted by the Arizona Live Stock Sanitary Board for notifying cattlemen of all shipments of cattle, by Inspectors, is meeting with great favor where in. spectors use these cards but they don't all use them. If every Inspec. tor would place the brand and class of cattle on these cards immediately after each shipment and post them to absent owners, cattlemen would be better satisfied with settlements of shipments.-Arizona Cattleman.

MANY MARRIED MEN WILL
 BE CALLED FOR SERVICE

The new draft regulations will not apply to men now in the cantonments The regulations apply only to candi- dates for the second selective service army about to be. raised.
 "The men who have been selected are selected" said Colonel Gullion of the provost marshal generals office. 'They are members of the first se- lective draft army. These new regu- lations have nothing to do with them. It makes no difference if some of them would have escaped under new reg ulations. These matters cannot be forever litigated. Therefore, the new regulations will not be applied to old cases"
 The new regulations appear to make it almost impossible for mar ried man to serve.
 "I predict" said Colonel Gullion, "that there will be good many mar ried men in this second army. It has been suggested that the first classifi- cation will number two million men, and that the army will be mostly recruited from class one. Even if this were true, there are married men in class one. The married man who does not actually support his family is subject to draft. A married man dependent on his wife is among those to be first called on. Married me not usefully engaged, but living on incomes acquired independently of their labor, also are in class one.
 Glass two begins to take in mar ried men very quickly. It includes cases in which the wife or children are not mainly dependent on the mans labor for support, because of other sources outside the wife's earn ing power; also the man whose wife earns nearly as much as he, bys spe- cial work she would have prospect of continuing if the husband left her. In other words, the husband of bus mess woman, earning a good income is in class two, and likely to be called.
