COTTON AND CATTLE.

a prominent South Plains farmer and stock
man lately said that every South Plains farmer
should have cotton patch and cattle bunch ="
While ordinarily, there is no exceptional con
nection between cotton and cattle bale and
Drawn staple and steak-the South Plains re-
gon is no ordinary country and local yspeaking
the above expressed opinion Of the referred to
farmer and stockman almost exalts itself into a
dlctum.
On the South Plains cotton is OF a compare
lively short maturity season; is free OF weeds and
facile cultivation and picking; is of an average
Texas yield; is Of fine fiber and high market
price-while It's heavily oil laden seed adds large
ly to It's never failing spot-cash value. On the
South Plains cattle are called to a high degree of
development. alike in health frame and flesh.
Disease is rarity; stout bone, strong and elastic
snew high powered heart and lungs and a superb
assimilation OF appetite and weight producing ca
pacty are birthnghts
South Plains beef steers weigh from 200 to
/ 800 pounds: baby beeves from 700 to $50
pounds; spring calves on September delivery
bring from s22 to $50 per head, while the calf
bihhrate percentage is among the highest.
Added to the above are the great facts that
on the South Plains cotton and fcedstuffs grow
side by side and that the region is unsurpassed in
natural grass pasturage. Exceptional therefore
as it may be elsewhere. cotton and cattle con
junction on the South Plains is Native to the
manner born and in general adoption will prove
a yet farther Tightening of tina, particular Purse

TIRED OF BEING GOOD.

Los Angeles has rejected the good govern.
ment party that has been in power for few
years and elected a corps of officers who were
opposed by the greater portion Of the press in the
city and by all the clubs of good people.
One may raise the question as to why it is that
such experiments in government lead perpetually
to reversals and to return to elder usages. One
reason for it is overlooked, but is very apparent
That is when the good, as they called, come
into power they go about trying to make every
body else good by statute, by force of ordinance
by oompusion. and they make the average citi-
zen tired
The real fundamental reason for he Demo
cratic party in the United States was its devotion
to the idea that men should be let alone much
as possible and their great funder declared that
that government is best which governs least y
Tha, principle is perpetually violated by most
municipal governments when the so-called better
elements get into power
No city can be too well governed No city
can spare the service OF its best citizens in the
true sense. and yet such citizens are not often
found manning the offices. They are busy about
private affairs, tHkaktu Hi "'"h' '''''
leaves it to the choice between those who not
desirable perhaps and those who are
ianatical than otherwise and filled with holy zeal
to make everybody toe the mark
Los Angeles has tried that system and re-
cctcd it, n word neither extreme suits the av-
cragc citizen. There may be other reasons for
the Los Angeles result. bu, certainly some basic
any rate exhibits the same spirit that seen
in ancient Athens when the first citizen ban
shcd because everybody was tired of hearing him
spoken OF always as The Good. Buffalo

TIE NEW CHAMBER or COMMERCE.

Under auspices and conditions most favorable

merce has just been recognized for another year
OF aggressive work Progress is at the helm. The
adoption OF commission form is an evidence of
that fact and the personnel of the commission
composed OF thirteen of the representative bus
men of the city is sufficient indication that
the organization intends to make this the most
resultful year in its history.
Many projects Of vital importance are mme-
dialely confronting the new board The commits

a determination and enthusiasm which promise

OF the rank and file members of the organiza-
ton and the general citizenship. Every man.
woman and child in Amarillo is directly and Wit

The man who stands back and aims his sec

FOR A CLEANER AMARILLO.

In Fridays issue of The News appeared state
ment by Mayor Gee that Amarillo might be en-
tered for prizes in the Cleanest Town contest, in
augura,ed annually by Hollands Magazine. In
connection with this statement a copy OF the reg
ulations Of the contest and the prizes offered was
printed
These stated specifically that no town could
be entered later than July !. Attention is called
10 this fact in view Of the nearness OF the closing
date. II Amarillo expects to enter the time is at
hand for such action. Following steps should be
taken at once to make OF this. what It should be
by every right Of climatic and altitudinous advan.
tage the cleanest city in the southwest.
The News hopes that definite action will be
taken in this matter without more delay. An ac-
tive campaign for a cleaner city would assure san
itary conditions which would preclude the posi-
biliiy Of fever or contagious diseases this summer
and that result, whether prize is not is
well worth striving to attain.
Let's fall in line for this worthy project And
some Of the citizens might begin in advance OF
concerted determination BY CUTTING THE
