Have you cleaned up your yard?
If not. you should do so at once.
Prospectors are arriving daily and
the general cleanliness or filthyness
of a town makes a great impression

Hereford should make hay
while the sun shines. Her business
men were never more prosperous
and it would take but a little effort
on the part of her citizens to obtain
anything in the way of improvements
or enterprises that the may see fit
to ask for.
poor old Amarillo! With her
back number business men with
antedeluvian business methods, she
is to be pitied indeed. A town
whose business men are not pro-
gressive enough to support at least
one newspaper is in a torry plight,
sure enough.

WÉ have received many compli-
ments upon the newsy and neat ap-

we accept the many, expressions of
praise with due modesty, we cannot
help but feel that were it not for the
splendid support which is given by
the citizens and business men of
Hereford and vicinity we could not
put forth our best energies to pub-
lish what we aim to do—the best,
newiest and cleanest paper in the
Panhandle.

If you would see Hereford stand
at the head of the Panhandle towns
in matters of improvements and en-
terprises you should join the Here-
ford Sanitary and Improvement
Society next Tuesday afternoon.
With a hearty co-operation among
the citizens she can be easily put
there.

What are you doing to help
build up Hereford? Is it fair that
you shpuld allow a few to do all the
work and you sit back in your easy
chair and derive the benefits and
profits of their hard toil ? Come to
the court house next Tuesday after-
noon at 3 o'clock and get awakened
from your lethergy.

the blacksmith business and will
take charge tomorrow. His place
on the Industrial West force will be
taken by Geo. L. Tipton of Mem-
phis.—Clarendon Industrial West.
We know that printers are cap-
able of entering nearly every call-
ing they deem advisable, but this is
the first time we have heard of one
becoming a blacksmith, though we
have known of many (so-called)
who should have been relegated to
the blacksmith's trade during their
apprenticeship.

OZIER RANCH SOLD.
This propsrty, Consisting of 10,880
Acres, Bought by S. T. How-
ard of Quannah.
On Saturday last a large ranch
property deal was consummated
through Hereford's enterprising
real estate dealers, Witherspoon
8c Gough, whereby S. T. Howard of
Quannah becomes the owner of the
land and improvements and ap-
purtenances thereto of the ranch
property formerly owned by W. R.
Ozier and others, situated about
twenty miles north of here on what
is known as the North Draw.
Mr. Howard, in a conversation
with the Reporter representative,
said that he bought the property for
his two sons, S. T., Jr., and Hugh,
who would arrive in a few days and
take charge and materially improve
the property by adding more wind-
mills, barns, etc.
The property will be stocked with
fine Herefords and will be made a
model stock farm in every respect.
Mr. Howard has one of the finest
registered Hereford herds at his
Quannah ranch to be found in the
county, consisting of 135 head.
These will be placed on his new
Deaf Smith county ranch and will
make this country the peer of any
county in the state in the matter of
fine cattle. Mr. Howard will move
his family and interests to Here-
ford in the fall and will make this
his future home. We will all
gladly welcome them.

A Good Suggestion.
Editor Reporter :
It is a well-known fact that there
are a number of people in Deaf
Smith and Castro counties who have
been using registered and high
grade Hereford and Short Horn
bulls two and three years that will
have to be replaced this year to
avoid inbreeding.
In view of this fact I would sug-
gest that these owners consult one
another and set a date some time
in May, or before the breéding sea-
son, to drive their bulls to Here-
ford to sell or exchange.
By having a common meeting
point I think a great many trades
could be made that could not be af-
fected if the bulls were left at home.
I think the many advantages of
this plan can be seen without ar-
gument. Respectfully,
A. P. Murchison.

On the 1st inst. Mr. B. C. D.
Bynum will leave Canyon City to
take charge of Smith, Walker &
Co.'s store at Hereford in place of
Mr. John McKnight who has re-
signed. Mr. Bynum has been
identified with Canyon since its real
growth began two and one-half
years ago. In that time he has
made a splendid record as a busi-
ness man and gentleman. Our
best wishes go with him to his new
home. May happiness and the
fullest measure of success ever at-
tend him.—Canyon Stayer.
