Any increase 10 small owners will be handled in the same way, Supervisor Wales stated, for from now on the forest service intends to enforce these grazing permit provisions. When distribution of the grazing privilege has progressed to point that would cause a1ly further distri- button to seem economically un- sound, provisions made by the Wash ington office will be used 10 close the forest or any part oi ii against further distribution of the privilege. This point, however, will certainly not be reached for some years yet Supervisor Wales said.

WEDDING BOND DIS
 RUPTED BY ODD ROW
(From Thursdays Daily)


 It started over the marriage cer- tificate, which is beginning pretty early to split up the union of man land wife
 When Pearl Bigelow married A. C. Bigelow in Apache county, the ceremony was performed by an ac- credited minister of the Mormon church, according to testimony at the Bigelow divorce suit. But instead Iof recording the marriage certificate with the clerk of the county court, as laid down by law, the minister, lit was said by Mrs. Bigelow, re- turned the license to Bigelow. He said the groom could record it if he chose. The groom didn't choose. ..
 Mrs Bigelow told the court she i1nplored her bridegroom to record the certificate, but he said he didn't want to; maybe, he told her; if they did not get along, they could sep arate without the formality of a di- vorce. The mother of the bride add ed her beseechments, but Bigelow remained obdurate. Finally, an ap- peal was made to justice oi the peace, who told the young couple they must not live together unless the certificate were recorded. Upon this, the couple separated, the bride going home.
 The case rested there until final iy brought to trial in the superior court here Judge Sweeney granted a decree of divorce on the grounds Of assertion.

PUBLICITY COMES TO
 FRONTIER DAYS SHOW
CFrom Thursdays Daily)


 The Prescott Frontier days seem ingly are receiving publicity from one end of the country to the other Yesterday, at the chamber of com merce office, three inquiries were re- ceived from opposite corners of the United States, asking for the rules and copies of the prize list, One came from the manager oi the Academy dairy, at Gambrills, Mary land; one from Bloomes, Wis, and the other from Okmulgee, Okla. Each of the letters stated that they had read of the Frontier days in the I"Western Story magazine"
 i In the Arizona Gazette, of the llth the following article appeared: Cheyenne" Riser, of Prescott, who holds the worlds championship honors in saddle and bareback rid ling, left Phoenix Monday night for jEl Paso, Texas, to show his range brothers few in the fine art of ihorsemanship, during the four-day cowboy sports festival which starts there Wednesday under the auspices of the Young Mems Business league of Fl Paso.
 Going in the role of state rep Iresentative,' Riser plans to enter all the contests at the rodeo where rid ing is featured. Every one who is acquainted at all with his equestrian ability expects Cheyenne to bring home the honors to Arizona.
 "Kiser has a wide reputation, not only. in Arizona, but ill every state where such stunts are staged, for his skill and daring in riding everything that a saddle can be put on. In the past his riding has been the feature of the Arizona state fairs and other cowboy sports programs staged throughout the state"
 The Gazette is in error in the fol- lowing statement for it was at the Prescott Frontier days that he was awarded the worlds championship broncho riding medal and not at Flagstaff: For the past two years Riser has been the bareback riding champ and last July at Flagstaff he annexed the same title in saddle riding when he defeated Luther Swanner, who failed to hold his medal against the present champ.
 "Kiser is a young fellow. only g years old. He works on the Neil ranch near Prescott, but deserts the range for the rodeo every time there's anything doing in the way of riding horses at state affairs"

INSURANCE FOR FORT
 WHIPPLE MEN SURVEYED
(From Fridays Dailyl

A survey of the compensation and insurance difficulties among the patients at Whipple Barracks is be-
 ing made by the authorities at the post Red Cross center, it was stated here yesterday by officials of the local American Legion post The Red Cross authorities at the post are also securing data as to the length or the stay of the men at this and other hospitals.
 This data, it was stated, will be used to effect a quicker adjustment of delayed claims for insurance lapses and applications for reinstate- ment. A new ruling by the bureau of war risk insurance at Washington provides that men who have under gone more than six months continu- ous hospital treatment without show ing any improvement, will be en- titled to a total permanent disabil- ity rating. This rating will continue unless examinations held every six months thereafter show an improve ment sufficient to enable the patient to enter active commercial life.

said yesterday. This will remove 1928 cattle from the present num- Der allowed, reducing the allowance to 61,175.
 Contrary to the practice current in some of the forests, the Prescott forest does not accept applications at its Prescott office, requiring them to be made to the ranger in charge of each district. This, Supervisor Wales said, reduces confusion and makes for ease and facility in the handling of applications, which come in single lots from the various districts.
 For each application submitted, the ranger in charge is required to make report covering such items .as the condition of the range, the number of stock actually owned and grazed i'll connection with the pref erence established, the condition of range property, cultivation, forage produced, compliance with state san itary laws and cattle association rules if any, salting requirements, the number of bulls in compliance with state stock laws, and other matters.
 The ranger has five days after the closing of applications in which to submit his report, which is affixed to each application he sends in.
