GAN OTHER SCHOOLS

If any other school in the state can beat this, let us know" were the words with which w. Curtis Miller, superintendent of county School at- tendance, yesterday commented on the remarkable record made by Camp Verde in the percentage of high school pupils to the total schools at tendance of the district.
 A visit to the Camp Verde county school district by Superintendent Miller revealed the fact that out of an enrolment of 13S pupils, 3S were doing regular high school work This, he pointed out yesterday, is almost 30 per cent

NOTES NUT TO BE TAKEN FOR
 GRAZING FEES
Information That Promissory Pa per Would Be Accepted by Government Cancelled in Tel egram From Washington
From Wednesdays Daily)

Promissory notes will not be ac-
 ccpted by the federal government from permittces on national forests who have been unable to meet pay ments of grazing fees, postponed last fall by congressional legislation to December 1 of this year, the local forest service office was advised yes terday by telegraph from Washing ton. Only cash, the wire advised, will be accepted.
 Letters of inquiry have been re- ceived from stockmen grazing their cattle on the Prescott National for est, under the impression that prom Iissory notes would be accepted, H. Basil Wales, supervisor, said yester- day. He has replied that, according to the instructions received by him from Washington, notes will not be taken.
 The information that notes would be acceptable is contained in a com munication from the Arizona Cattle Growers association, which com munication says:
 In telegraphic information just re- ceived from Senator Ashurst, it Is stated that Senator Ashurst, Repre- sentative Hayden, Governor Thomas E. Campbell and MT. Dwight B. Heard had an extended interview with the secretary of agriculture on this matter, pointing out that many honest, industrious cattlemen in Ari- zona, through no fault of their own, were not in position to pay these fees at this time and unless the fees were extended, these men would be ruined.
 Rather than enacting further leg islation in this matter the secretary of agriculture has kindly issued in- structions to the various forest su- nerviSorS, directing them to accept promissory notes from those permit tees on the forests who have been unable to pay the grazing fees, ln all cases where the good faith of the permittee was evident
 "The Arizona Cattle Growers as sociation requests interested cattle men to make tender of their notes to the forest supervisors, and failing to secure proper recognition, to take the matter up with the associations of. fees at Phoenix"
 This information, Supervisor Wales said yesterday is cancelled by the telegraphic instructions he has re- ceived from Washington.

CHRISTMAS PRICES
 AT LOW EDB HERE

Complaints of high prices in Pres colt have no basis in schedules of holiday commodities here, it is shown in a comparison made yesterday by Henry Hartin with current prices be- ing asked in southern California. Es- pecial1y is this true of rates asked for birds for the Christmas table.
 Los Angeles dealers, in published advertisements, are asking 65 cents a pound for turkeys, while the price asked by the Prescott meat markets is only 45 cents. This relativity is by local Einsteins in other commodities.

GOATS WOULD REDUCE
 ANGELES FIRE HAZARD
CFrom Thursdays Dally)

Southern California forest service officials want 100000 goats to graze on the ranges of the Angeles forest. A communication to this effect was received here yesterday by H. Basil Wales, Prescott forest supervisor, from Supervisor Charleton of Los Angeles, in charge of the Angeles forest.
 Enlightened self-lnterest actuates Supervisor Charleton, he confesses. Cropping by goats of the abundant browse and brush on the Angeles ranges will, in addition to fattening the goats, considerably reduce the fire hazard on those ranges. This IS consummation devoutly to be wish cd, for the Angeles forest has estab- lished a history of annual forest fires, especially ill the Santa Monica Canyon; where every year the Los Angeles newspapers find dramatic stories of fire-fighting to headline.
 The proposition is looked on fav- orably by Supervisor Wales, who states that range conditions for goats on the Angeles forest are exception ally good.
 Conditions on the California for est are different than on the Pres- colt ranges" he said yesterday. ~Al- ready the Prescott forest is well utilized by cattle. On account of watershed conditions, it would be much better that we have no goats on our forest. Only one band now is on the forest, but I have received a number of applications for permits to graze more goat herds. It would be better for all were the herders to take their animals to the California forest"

OVER HUNDRED FAMILIES NEED
 HELP IN CITY
From Mednesdav,s Dailrl

NtIOm W eOneSOayS S ldlly)
 Prescott little realizes the number of those who require help. I am sure if the citizens of this community could but bring home to themselves the fact that there are 110 families in this city requiring help at this time, there would be no question but what immediate attention would be given" This in a few words sum- med up the situation as expressed by Mrs. J. T. Richards, chairman of the associated municipal Christmas tree and its charity work.
 Tt is a difficult thing to place the wants before the public. We want cooperation, financially. The of Prescott have come forward splendidly, but the bulk of this should not rest upon their shoul- ders. Individuals should donate to this cause"
 That concerted action must be taken, irrespective of the Christmas work was clearly shown after the survey of the work had been made by volunteers. The ministers of Pres colt and all directly interested in charity work have lent their efforts to this cause.
 Those having clothes, suitable for and grwn-ups should notify Mrs. J. w. Osburn, telephone No. l21.
 Those willing to contribute to the Christmas boxes should send their donations to the chamber of com nerce office, where headquarters have been established. That the work should be carried on aside from the Christmas time, is my candid opinion," stated the chairman yester- day. This will help, but other ac- ton must be forthcoming"
 Subscription lists are to be had, aside from the chamber of commerce office, at Robinson's, Mays, the Pal ice, the Owl Scholeys, Antler's and he Elks' club.

WORK AT GROWN
 KING TO START
(From Thursdays Dailyl

Work preliminary to resumption of operations at the famous Crown King gold mine, which for several years has been imperative, due to litigation, was begun at Grown King this week. D. M Locey, one of the best known mining men of this county, where he formerly was en- gagged in mining, yesterday was at Crown King supervising the prclimi- naries. With him is a Chinese cook and an office man. A crew made up mostly of men formerly in his em- .ploy has been organized, and work of repairing bunk houses and other buildings at the mine is under way.
 Announcement of intended resump- ton of operations at the Crown King, and at the Wildflower and Old Tiger mines, was made this week in an exclusive Journal-Miner story to the effect that Locey had taken over these three mines, known as the Murphy group
 Until resumption of mining at the properties, roads and buildings will be put into shape Re-opening of the mines is considered among the most hopeful indications of a general resumption of mining activity. In- dications are that several mines in the Walker district will sooner or later be operating on a productive scale. Among these are the Sheldon and the Big Dome, the latter now being explored.

.UTENS|L FIRM APPEALS CASE
 AGAINST CITY
Motion for New Trial by Plain tiff Denied; Sheriff's Case vs. County on Briefs; Wages Col lection Suit Dismissed

Notice of appeal was entered in division two of the superior court yesterday by David L. Bishopp, at torney for the Aluminium Cooking Utensils company, following denial by Superior Judge Richard Lamson of a motion for a new trial of the plaintiff company's suit against the city of Prescott involving alleged interference by the city with sales agents of the plaintiff in Prescott. Motion for a new trial was entered by Bishopp without argument, and was dismissed by the court, where upon notice of appeal was entered. The plaintiff was given 60 days in which to perfect its appeal. The de- fendant city of Prescott was repre- sented by Alfred H. Gale, city at torney, of the firm of Anderson, Gale & Nilsson.
 Suit Against County
 Action brought by Warren c. Davis, in his capacity of sheriff of Yavapai county, against the county, to collect salaries of two deputy sheriffs, was ordered submitted on briefs, without argument. The plain tiff was represented by Attorney Neil (. Clark, of Clark & Clark; the de- fendant by Attorney Emmett T. Morrison, of Morrison & Morrison.
 The case arose from a conflict be- tween the sheriff and the board of supervisors over the payment of sal ary to two deputy sheriffs. The board had ordered the force of depu- ty sheriffs reduced, and the commits sion of two certain deputies cancelled. This the sheriff refused to do, and after refusal by the board to issue warrants for the payment of the deputies salaries, brought suit to force payment.
 The plaintiff yesterday was given until January 5, 1922, to submit its brief, and the defendant until January 10 to submit its answer.
 Suit Dismissed
 Action brought by John Brooks against the Money Metals Mining company, for collection of $500 al legged in the complaint to be owed Brooks by the company for work performed, was ordered dismissed without prejudice on motion of R, B. Westervelt, attorney for Brooks.
