sPELTz IN THE PANHANDLE.

One OF the great field crops that
has been grown successfully In a lin
tied way in the Panhandle is speltz
This grain is grown extensively in
parts OF Europe for human food but
in America 1t has been used up to
this time only as stock feed.
A sample left at the Commercial
Club by Mr. j. G.. Davis OF st. Fran
els about fifteen miles northeast OF
Amarillo, Is from crop grown on
soil ,tbAt produced forty bushels to
the acre, and sold in an undeveloped
market at 81 cents per bushel Of
forty pounds. Mr.. Davis is so highly
pleased that he will plant a large
crop OF speltz this fall and next
spring as 1t can be sown successfully
at both seasons,
No crop yields larger return or
is more certain. II is a fine grain
for horses and especially so as hog
feed. Rlpening as It does about two
months earlier than kaffir corn, It is
especially desirable to hog rRisers as
a starter for their hog crop.
Farmers should try this important
cereal. Once tried it will be held as
one OF the most profitable crops on
Panhandle farms, 1t yields from for
ty to eighty bushels to the acre and
is one OF the leading money crops of
Europe, speltz is great resistant
of dry weather, having the waiting"
quality Of kaffir corn; and is far
more certain, than either wheat or
oats, 1t is certainly one of the very
best crops for the Panhandle coun-
try.

WHEAT SOWING WILL
Be VERY EXTENSIVE
(From Mondays Daily)

The development Of this section
OF the country as a whole depends
largely upon the farming interests.
That there are vast possibilities for
the growers of small grain in the
Panhandle Of Texas, there cannot be
the least DOUBT. This fact is intensi-
fled and brought to immediate at
tention through the fact that the
sowing Of wheat this year will sur
pass by far anything that has been
heretofore undertaken.
In one instance It is noted that
wheat in the Panhandle in more than
one place raised as much as twenty
three bushels to the acre. BY COM
parison It is noted that in some Of
the older and so-called more favored
portions OF the state, only five bush
els per acre were harvested.
There is now a very general de-
mand for seed wheat and the SOW
ing has been in progress for the past

FARMERS AND THE ANA.
RlLLO PACKING PLANT.
lFrom Mondayls paIlyl


While the people OF Amarillo are
congratulating themselves and each
other over the success OF the plan to
establish a packing plant In this city,
there are others who are rejoicing
over the matter probably even more
than the people OF Amarillo, This
refers 10 the stock farmer within a
radius OF thirty or more miles from
Amarillo.
Heretofore the farmers In this re-
gIon have been handicapped in mar
keting their hogs Fort Worth was
the nearest market and TO ship there
at a profit required carload rates.
The average farmer was not in posi-
tion to use a car hence several grow
ers would be compelled 10 make up
a carload together,
This was unsatisfactory Added to
this was severe loss In shrinkage,
commission charges and other an
noyances and expenses.
This burden viii be eliminated
when the Amarillo packing plant Is
In operation, and the farmer, conse-
quently Is feeling happy,
In future when he has bunch
OF hogs ready for the buyer he can
load his wagon with the fat porkers
and In few hours time have them on
the scales at the local plant without
the loss in shrlnKage and the loss
from commissions and other charges
piled on him at the distant markets.
He gets his money on the spot and
gets paid for every pound OF flesh
he puts on his stock in the feed lot,
This Is a happy solution OF a mat
ter long worrying the stock farmer
in Amarillo's local territory and the
result will be more hogs and more
money for the farmer and the peo-
pie OF this region.
Not only the smaller hog grower
is pleased with the coming packing
plant, but the entire plains country
is looking this way with great ex-
pectatlons and which will soon be
realized to the fullest.

casts VIEW OF THE WEST.
tFrom Fridays Dany)

We have humorous habit, out
here in the bounding West, OF max
ing fun OF the insularlty OF the East,
and in particular OF New England,
says the Houston Chronicle We de-
light to tell such tales as that OF the
man who, addressing club of learn
ed folk In Boston, remarked that he
chad made but one visit to the great
West on which occasion | visited
Utica, N. Y"
Now, these things are funny, no
doubt OF Il, to one that has had the
privilege of travelling day after day
through the mighty valleys, and
across the tremendous mountain
ranges OF the real United States, Yet
II should not be forgotten that the
insularity OF eastern scholars typi-
fled In the observation OF the speak
err at the Boston club, has not been
shared by the East's men of affairs.
Boston built Chicago. built Kansas
City, built San Francisco, built a
score Of western cities that now chal-
lenge their mother In population and
wealth She built dozen OF the
VESTS greatest railroad systems and
she has financed most OF the rich
mines-to say nothing OF the count
less mining frauds.
To come closer home, Boston has
built and today owns most OF the
electric railroad systems OF Texas.
Some OF them she took over at low
tide, as In Houston, and has reha-
bllitated by Investing, in them,
through period of years, more mon
ey than she has taken out OF them.
Boston is betting on Texas, and bet
ting high.
Little New Workers, the average OF
the breed, are fond OF saying there
IL nothing worth while west of the
river. But the big New Workers
know better. They know where
money is to be made, whore invest
ment opportunities await the man
with money and energy guided by
intelligence, and their handiwork is
TO be found throughout the entire
country.
Texas needs more OF such men and
more OF their active money. She has
put in fifteen years rapping them
across the knuckles. by way OF re-
minding them that they must not be
too greedy, II Is time now for Texas
TO send word east that her humor has
changed; that she will guarantee
them reasonable returns upon any in
vestments they may make here; that
she has called halt upon the pro-
fessional agltators; that she is ready
and eager to begin another long pc

MANY SIDEWALKS
FOR AMARILLO
City Councils Proposition 10 Lay Cross Walks Will
Have Fine Effect Contract Was Let
Last Saturday

At a special meeting of the city
council held Saturday afternoon, it
was decided that no further delay
shall be INDUCED by that body in the
matter OF laying crosswalks. 1t was
accordingly settled, and a contract
for the construction of the walks in
dictated was awarded to Wilmering
e. Co.
1t will be recalled that a PROPOSE
ton was made by the municipal gov
ernment to lay crosswalks connect
ing all blocks in which unbroken
lines of sidewalks are established.
This offer has been seized upon by
some Of the property owners, and as
result, there are a number of blocks
eligible to crosswalks, in which none
OF them are present. 1t is to make
good this conditional promise that
the city is now contracting.
The proposition of the city will
doubtless be instrumental in causing
miles of sidewalks to be constructed
in the almost immediate future.
Many of the citizens have given no
tice that they expect to put down
their walks with but little delay.
A campaign among the citizens in
the residence districts of the city
will doubtless lead to great awak-
ening in the matter of building side
walks. The neSS for these walks is
far more pressing at present than
was the case even few years ago.
This is Of two fold nature: First
there are a great many more citizens
depending upon the use of the side
walks, and then there are more rains
now than in former years, making
the mud on travelled streets especially
disagreeable.
The weekly herald. [volume] (Amarillo, Tex.) 1906-19??, 1908-09-17

The need for side and crosswaiks
was very impressive about week
ago, when the rains prevailed for
several days. The mud up
on that occasion, while not so
great as has been present at differ
ent times, was very prevalent, and
caused great inconvenience.
The generous offer Of the city, and
the fact that the work is now under
contract, is rightly inspiring the
owners of property to get busy and
lay their walks.
1t is stated that enough sidewalks
are to be built during the coming
few weeks, to give Amarillo, the Me-
tropolis of the Plains" the title to
the "best sidewalked" city in the
Panhandle. There will be big de-
mand for sidewalk material, and
those doing this class of work will
doubtless be very busy if the forecast
Of the city officials is correct
