FINE STOCK
RAISED HERE
Panhandle Country Subsrb for
for Raising Of Fine Blood
ed Stock
CFrom Tuesdays Daily)

From Tuesdays Daily)
A typical stock farm showing tho
possibilities Of the great Panhandle
country; a farm with growing fields
OF wheat and oats, grazing swine and
cattle, neat cottage and farm build
Ings--a farm that might have been
transplanted from the stald old East
or the fertile Middle West 80 far
as regards It's appearance OF thrift
this is the irrelutable evidence Of
successful stock farming in the Pan
handle that was shown recently to
a investigator into stock raising con-
dltions In this vicinity.
The stock farm Of John T. Ward
is located about three miles south Of
Amarillo and consists of 1900 acres
500 OF which are cultivated, the re-
mainder being given to grazing for
his herd OF Hereford cattle, or the
500 acres under cultivation, 100 Is
in wheat 100 in oats and the re-
naming 500 acres in maize, kaffr
corn, Indian corn and sugar beets.
The wheat and oats are grown sole
ly for hog feeding purposes.
Mr.. Ward is devoting practically
his entire time TO the breeding OF
Hereford cattle of which he has an
excellent herd, The herd is headed
by Duplicate Welton, by Benjamin
Welton, whoch was bred by
Oyerton Harris of Harris, Mo. Ben.
jamin Welton possesses the cnyiable
distinction OF having never been
beaten In the ring with his get, Du-
plicate Welton is a perfect specimen
OF the Hereford breed, possessing all
the fine points necessary to first
class grading in the show ring.
The cows OF Mr.. Wards herd are
all from such celebrated strains as
Corrector, Grove Third, Anxiety,
Cherry Boy, Lord Welton. etc. Ev-
cry animal on his farm is in the pink
of condition for range purposes Hay-
ing been fed in the open they are
strong and rugged without being
pampcred. Mr. Ward contemplates
disposiEg of about ten OF his two
year old bulls, forty yearling bulls
and about flftydsnws with calves at
foot, owing to having a larger num-
Der nhsnd than he can conveniently
care for at the present time.
Mr. Wards farm Is interesting as
being typical Of the, as yet, unreal
ided possibilities OF stock farming in
the Panhandle country and a visitor
to his farm cannot but coincide in
the belief OF the owner that this
country is destined to become one Of
the greatest stock producing sections
OF the Southwest.

FEWER LAWS, BETTER LAWS.

The Texas Commercial Secretary's
Association, with legislative head
quarters in Fort Worth, is now busy
ing itself in well-drected endeavor
to secure for the state of Texas
! Fewer Laws, Better Laws" which
is their adopted slogan.
In an address putting forth an
outline of endesvor, and indited to
the patriotic, conservative, thinking
people Of Texas, 1t is remarked that
the most thoughtful and sympathetic
friend of the masses this republic
has ever known proclaimed the doc
trine that that government was best
! in which the people was least gov
erned. That doctrine holds as good
today as when It was pronounced.
The curse of the times Is too much
agitation, too much repression, too
much interference with the guaran-
teed rights of the citizen, too much
espionage-too much government.
The threat and danger of the times
Is in the insidious growth Of social
ism. which, in its final analysis,
means to destroy initiative, paralyze
competition, and to erect upon the
ruins Of a Democracy paternalistic
system under which the citizen would
become the ward and servant of gov
eminent instead of the creator and
master OF the government.
Therefore, on the principle that
too much government is destructive
OF the fundamental rights and consti-
tutional liberties Of the people, and
that too much government must in
evitably lead to socialism, the confer
ence OF Commercial Clubs which was
held in Fort Worth on March 70,
1908, adopted as a declaration of
purpose the slogan OF Fewer Laws,
Better laws"
Hoping then to make this slogan
an effective one, they invite every
body to join in an organized, Wig
orous and sustained effort to inau-
gurate an era Of rational and patri-
otto legislation in Texas that will re-
silt in the repeal, modification or
emendation of harmful or objection
able laws and in diminishing the ris-
ing value OF experimental and dan
gerou7 laws that are bienially SHOW
eled into the legislative hopper.
They assert that the tendency OF
the times has resulted in suspendlng

tory development; in limiting credit, !

cotton root rot from one field to an
