NEW BRAND LAW IS CAUSE
 OF ACTIVITY BY sTockMEN

PHOENIX, June I4--One of the "Evest" new laws that became effec- | tive Thursday seems to be the brand law, which requires re-reg!stration with the livestock sanitary board of all brands in use within six months and the filing O! Trcof in the matter of ownership of brands.
 Ed stephens. secretary Of the board, stated yesterday that during the first , day the law was operative scores of applications for registrations had been received, and that the employees Of inc office were already engaged searching out records Tor same.
 Among some of -lese first apphca- iions." said Mir Stephens. we have already found sufficient discrepancies 10 make the ownership of some brands a matter of doubt had it ever come to a cour; test. There are cases where a mans entire herd could have been taken away from him because he was innocently using a brand that legally belonged to some one else. Such mat ters as these will all be straightened out by the re-registration, and possi- bilities of future disputes obviated."
 The law states in part: Within six months from the date Of the first pub lication of the above notice, it shall be the duty of all owners of brands now of record in the office of the livestocK sanitary board to file with the secre- tary of said board fac simiie Of the brands now in actual use and owned by them. meaning by the words 'ac- tual use to include such brands as are kept up. or meaning brands not kept up on increase. but which are holding brands on cattle, horses, mules or asses then actually owned by them. Such filing shall be made upon appli- cation blanks provided by the board for the purpose and shall designate thereon which brands are stfll used upon increase of stock and which are simply holding brands"
