 Cowboys and rangemen from all sections of Arizona and the Southwest are beginning to arrive in Prescott daily, waiting for the opening day of the big Frontier Days celebration, which will be held in the Mile High City, July 2-3-4-5th, Many of the men have come horseback from long distances. These men from the rang es will vie With each other in the con tests where might and brawn, as well as brains, will struggle for supre- macy.
 Over S1O,OOO in Ncold" cash will be awarded to the contestants in the var ious Frontier Days contests. The three principal events which attract these men are: The Worlds Cham pionship Steer Break-away, with a total purse of $1375; the Worlds Championship Broncho Busting Con- test, total cash purse $1O25 plus the beautiful diamond-studded gold medal Worlds Championship roping contest, total purse, $3000.
 There will be events in which any rangeman or "hard-boiled" cowpun- cher who lives on excitement will be able to grow fat. At the present time there are on the Frontier Days grounds, thirty head of excellent hun dred per cent bucking horses to be used in the Worlds Championship Broncho Busting Contest. While some of the horses which have been used in the contests in the past are in true form and ready to go now, a large number of new horses have been added to the string, Some of the horses that will make their debut at this years Frontier Days contest will be "Laundyman," who has ideas of taking the starch out of cowpunchers and filling their hides many times with bluing. "Chuck Wagon" while not offering eats, has been the means of supplying several contest riders with meal tickets months in advance. "Fried Eggs" beautiful little perox- idei blond, was given the name on ac- count of his habit of "laying' close to the ground. 'SSunshine" a pretty dappled gray, is great favorite with the ladies, but does not agree well with men. The feast but by no means the last mount to be taken, into con- sideration is the little pinto know as "Henry Ford," THenry Ford" was given his name on account of his 1n- expensive upkeep, his roughriding qualities and his ability to shake more devilment out of some people than Billy Sunday possibly could. Unlike most lords, this one is equipped with a self starter. Quite the largest horse to make his appearance this year will be "Hold Tight" The old fellow looks as though he might com pete with tractor for power, but he is equally as flexible as Wwin Six" and as rough-riding as Henry Ford. " The "Sky Pilot" dignified chestnut with blazed face, honest, innocent, deep blue eyes has habit of placing lrough-necked eowpunchers closer in touch with the pearly gates than is their custom. "Dry Farmer" might be out of place in some sections of Arizona, but if there are any sturdy sons of the range who have ideas that they would like to couple up with the large money offered in this years contest, the "Dry Farmer" will do his part to put them in touch with it Some of the other horses that will dc their bit to help the boys win thu money are: "Talking-Over," "Twir Six" "Red Buzz" "Oscar Wild," "u Know Me AL" "Nujal," and last but not least, the son of old Erin, "Micky Malone"
 Now is the time to plan spending your vacation in the pine-clad, hills of Yavapai County, where the req event of the year, the Prescott Fron tier Days is staged.
