Ditch on Renfro Farm at Hereford.
Il is about three years since the first attempt
was made at pumping from the great Underilow
of the Hereford Country. During this three years
marvellous strides have been made along irriga-
ton lines and the people OF Hereford believing in
the old "proOf Of the pudding" adage, invite the
world TO come TO The Water Carnival next week
and see the miraculous effect Of water applied to
a fertile but thirsty soil.
Every man, woman and child in The entire
country should attend this Water Carnival, and
become familiar with what real successful
irrigation means. Il is very doubtful if any Sec
ton of the United States can show better crops
than are now growing on the irrigated farms at
Hereford
The irrigation wells are pumping millions of
gallons Of water every day with positively no
diminutiOn Of the supply, but On the other hand
are delivering more water than last year. The
Edwards and Renfro wells combined deliver
nearly five million gallons Of water every twenty
four hourS-water sufficient for a city OF many
thousands of population and water SO and 95-
100 per cent pure. The smallest irrigation well
in the Hereford Country is capable of supplying
a city Of five thousand people every day in the
year. There is enough water in the Hereford
Shallow Water Districts TO float the navieS Of the
world and in addition 10 furnish water for the
Panama Canal without even missing it, This wa
ter supply one Of the really wonderful things Of
the great State Of Texas.
The development Of the shallow water belts
of the Texas Plains means added millions Of dol
lars and thousands Of population. This develop
ment is nicely started at Hereford and an excel
lent forecast Of what the future will bring forth
is now plainly visible The immense streams of
water from the pumps will convince anyone and
the crops do their own talking.
Come to Hereford Friday and Saturday, July
Is and 49, Get acquainted with your neighbors
bring the family. An excellent amusement
company has been engaged for the entire week Of
the l4tb so there will be plenty Of fun and water
for the entire population Of the Staked Plains
Country. For rates, hotel accommodations or

F. Z. Pierson, secretary of the phys

Grafton of the five associations of the
tri-cities and Muscatine and Clinton,
which he proposes before the end of
the week to put up to the other cities
in the list. Close relations of the five
associations are desirable and would
Increase the interest taken in associa-
ton work especially in the physical de-
partment. Contests in which the as
sociations of the different cities are
arraved against each other would help
the work and Mr.. Pierson believes that
much more can be done in this direc-
ton than has even been attempted in
the past.
