By JACK BRANNAN United Press International Dodge City, Kan. - HOT -when Wyatt Earp and Bat Masterson served as marshals of this southwestern Kansas town, it was known as "The Queen of the Cow Towns." That title has faded into obscurity, while the exploits of Dodge City's two most fa mous marshals have grown into legends. But a law enforcement problem common to both the marshals and the town still exists: cattle rustling. "The only person who says there isn't any rustling going on anymore is the one who doesn't have any cattle," said the modern-day counterpart of Earp and Mastcrson, Ford County Sheriff Jim Davis. "Am! we plan to ' m a k e rustling a non-profit business around these parts."

But cattle raisers in the area believe Davis Is the right man to solve their rustling prob lems. He recovered 27 head of rustled cattle, worth about $3,000, during his first month in office this year and arrested four men. "But I'm sure this won't be the end of it," Davis said. "So terparts, who used horses in stead of trucks. But the law has some new advantages on its side. too. "Take for instance that first rustling case we had," said Davis. "We noticed cattle grazing on some land in the soil bank program near here. "Since they were on soil bank land, we checked them out and found no one could establish ownership. Then we found out they had been stolen. That led lo recovery of the 27 stolen cattle and the four arrests.", Davis explained how the technique of the modern day rustler compares with that of the rustlers who plagued Earp, Masterson and other frontier cattle town marshals. "They used to fight off the herd guards, take out some cattle or the whole herd, then take them over a long trail drive to get them away from the area where the brand was known," he said. "Now they go out to a herd, take a small steer or heifer and throw it into the back of a pickup truck. They usually take the little stuff, because it isn't branded. "They can take the stolen cattle to a nearby cattle sale, too, because the dealers don't get suspicious when one or two little ones without a brand are sold." Davis said many of the cat tle stolen in Ford county are sold in the Dodge City mar kets. "But we're going lo get it stopped, I'm sure," he said. Davis admitted, however, that Earp and Masterson once thought they could stop rust ling, too.
