soakings that it has been its
good fortune for some time.
Coupled with the here to fore
downpours has also doubly as
sured the Panhandle country
with the best prospects of bum
per crops. Wheat has been do
ing fine and is looking it's best
in many months. Small fruit
and vegetables are doing well,
and will continue to thrive as the
precipitation has been slow and
steady from the first. While the
downpour has not been as heavy
as some of the recent rains, but
it has been steady and taken in
to the earth and stored for fur
ture needs. Both farmers and
stock -raisers, declare that the
prospects were never better at
this season of the year for a
bumper crop and cattle range in
better condition as the old saying
goes, Lets rejoice and be ex-
ceedingly glad"

Dear Sir
We notice from the press that
Judge j. G. Hunt, who was form
erly our fellow townsman, is a
candidate for representative
from your district, and while we
do not wish to place ourselves
in the light of taking part in an
election that does not concern US,
our high esteem for his ability
and his manly upright character
and our personal friendship for
him prompt US to address you
in his behalf.
Judge Hunt was citizen of
our town for several years and
we knew him both in prosperity
and adversity and found him to
be a man in every sense of the
word. at all times and under all
circumstances. He is a learned
and able attorney, lifetime
democrat, strictly sober, a man
of unquestioned honesty, and is
possessed of that happy disposi-
tion that can meet its fellowman
on a level whether he be a paup-
er or prince and treat him like a
brother. He is a man who does
not jump at conclusions, or fol-
low blindly in the lead of some
one else, and if he is elected the
the people of the 106th district
will be as we'll represented as
any district in the state.
Respectfully,

dent chiefly upon how long the

ward of the center of greatest

A staple industry naval
stores production as a resourse
