enterprise which would prove
a remunerative investment in Here-
ford is a first-class steam laundry of
not too great a capacity, with _
thoroughly competent business man
it. It would not require any
great outlay of money to install a
plant of which our town and com
munity would feel proud. Such an
enterprise would not only have the
heartiest, support locally, but would
draw custom from a large territory,
including Texico, Bovina, Dimmitt,
Umbarger and have a good showing
to secure trade from Canyon City
and the South Plains. Any town
which will support an up-to-date
electric light plant would offer good
support to a steam laundry. We be-
lieve some of our local capitalists
would do well to investigate the
proposition with a view of adding
one more valuable enterprise to the
commercial field of our already
proud little city.
Our attention has recently been
called to the fact, by a number of
our farmer friends, that now is the
proper time to begin preparations
for next year's wheat crop. Au-
thOrities on wheat culture teach us,
as does reason also, that our lands
here should be broken early in the
summer and kept undec careful cul-
tivation till sowing time. By this
method, the major part of the rain-
fall is securely stored away to be
utilised in bringing up the plant and
ling it till the winter snows
Many mistakes have been

the past will not have to be repeated.
The abundant small grain crops of
this year ought to encourage us to
materially increase the aereare next
year.

Saturday's Lecture.
A large delegation of farmers and
business men assembled at the court
on last Saturday afternoon to
hear the address of Col. James S
Davis on Cotton. Col Davis made
attempt at oratory but, in his
plMkan easy manner, related in-
teresting fact, which he had gathered
from long experience, concerning
the king of crops.
He told us of the time when it
w that Ellis county, now the
banner cotton producing county of
the world, would not grow cotton
ZZjm
county were
compelled to labor.
In referring to the Panhandle as a
cotton country, he stated that he
was not sufficiently well acquainted
with the conditions to say positively
whether this would ever be classed
with tee cotton producing sections,
but said that when if was demon
strated that we can produce one
fourth of a bale per acre, one year
with another, we would need no
further advertisement to settle the
luntry with thrifty farmers.
AU in aU, Col. Davis" talk was á
practical one and he was listened to
with perfect attention by those
^BCnt- -j-i
Mr. Jewell Hurt.
G. R. Jowell happened to an ac-
cident last Saturday morning which
came near proving fatal to him.
He was hauling the new hydraulic
ram, which he recently purchased, to
his ranch east of town. All went well
until he attempted to cross the creek
at C. E. Wheeler's when the ma-
chine came tumbling off the wagon,
some of the timbers used for a foun-
dation striking Mr. Jowell on the
head cutting off one of his ears. He
also received a heavy blow in the
left side, breaking one rib and frac-
turing two or "three others.
He was picked up in an uncon-
scious condition aud taken home.
Sis physician was at once summoned
and it was soon learned that the
injuries sustained were not of a
serious enough nature to' cause any
great alarm. At present, Mr. Jow-
ell's condition is greatly improved.
His ear has been sowed back and is
healing nicely, while his other in-
uries are doing as well as could be
expected.
While the Brand was sorry to
learn of the unfortunate affair, we
hope that he will be favored with a
speedy recovery so that he may
soon be enabled to carry out his
plans which he has so long cherish-
ed*.

For Postmasters Only.
The following notice was posted
by an Arkansas P. M.:
"No letters will be delivered un-
til received. If you don't get a let-
ter or paper on the day you expect
it have the Postmaster look through
all the boxes and in the cellar also.
It ought to be there somewhere, and
he likes to look for it just to please
you. If your friends don't write
curse the Postmaster ;, he is to blame.
If he tells you there ii no mail for
you put on a grieved expression and
say: 'There ought to be some."
He is probably hiding your mail
for the pleasure of having you call
for it two or three times a day. Ask
him to look again."—Bs.

The completest surprise that has
ever been brought to Hereford
citizens was the marrihge of two of
our most prominent young
eople on last evening. The con-
racting parties were Hon. Carl
rilliland and Miss 1 Irene Estes,
«aughter of Mr. and Mrs. John
Estes of this city, iuÉ ceremony
being performed at th# home of the
bride's parents at 10 *30 p. m. by
Judge W. H. Russell. So complete
was the manipulation of the affiair
that their most intimate friends were
kept in the dark.
