O-6 Calves Won 3rd
Premium at the Fat
Stock Show at St. Joe

The agricultural and live-stocs
industry possibilities of the plains
country are lastly receiving recog-
milton from other parts of the
country. One Of the most promi-
nent showings of South Plains i've
stock being made at Sc. Joseph,
Mo. last week when five hundred
calves from the O-6 ranch, twenty
miles southeast Of Lubbock, owned
bv o. /. Slaton and Bud Johnson,
took third premium at the Fat
Stock Show held there.
While the O-6 calves were IN good
shape and made a good showing for
the plains country they were not
fitted for show, but were placed IN
the Fat Stock Show at ST. jose ph
BIZ the local ranchmen's representa-
tives. who saw at once that the
calves were good ones, and entered
them.
The continued drouth Of course
has had III effect upon range condi-
tions throughout the plains country,
and il is regrettable indeed that the
ranchmen have suffered some losses
in weights Of the herds, but !. Is
still pleasing 70 know that in spite
of this great handicap plains cattle
are among the top notchers, and the
calves entered at the St. Joseph
show no doubt served their purpose
in advertising the genuineness OF
the plains country for cattle raising.
The fact that those calves won
third premimum at the ST. Joseph
show without any extra prepare
tions is a dim indication of what
could have been accomplished thru
more intensive preparation, and no
doubt the next time the O-6 ranch
is represented at such exposition an
even greater account of the fine
herds kept there will be made.

MORE FARMLANDS PUT ON
MARKET IN LUBBOCK co.

Seven thousand and fifty acres of
ranchlands in Lubbock County were
placed on the market last week by
the owners, Spencer Brothers, Of
Cisco, Texas, through the local real
estate agency, Green & Holt. W.
f. Spencer is in Lubbock looking
after the land deals. and has beer
exceedingly liberal in making terms
on which most anyone with sufficient
ambition TO make an attempt to buy
a home may meet the requirements
and at the same time enjoy the use
of the property.
In placing this land on the market
Messrs. Spencer have done n great
work for Lubbock County, and there
are but few people acquainted with
conditions here but who will accept
the news of this deal with enthus-
iasm.
Every farmer brought here will
be great addition TO Lubbock
County, and from all indications that
land will sell in a hurry, as Green
& Holt have employed the use Of
much printing ink in announcing the
opening Of that body Of land, and as
they are efficient realtors, their sue
cess is assured.

MAN is WELL
PLEASED WITH LUBBOCK co.

D. Roads. Of Nanny, La. was here
last week prospecting, and reported
to local real estate men that as soon
ms desirable locations can be found
here several farmers from that Sec
ton. including himself and son,
would move TO the plains.
Mr.. Roads is one of the big agri-
culturalists of Louisiana, and has
associated with him others Of equal
financial standing, and II is crafty
ing to note that they are interested
in the plains country.
The possibilities of the plains at
once attract the tourist or prospec-
tor, and we are glad TO know that
such men as MIR. Roads are among
those taking interest in Lubbock
county.
The process of developing the
plains country is altogether a mat
ter of bringing TO the lands here
agriculturialists Of energy and abil-
ity, as the natural resources will
make IL possible for them to make
the work profitable. and we are de-
lighted TO know that our real estate
men are on the lookout for every op-
portunity TO land a good one here.
Little or much may be said Of the
real estate dealers. but the writer
looks upon them as effective agene-
les for the development Of the great
plains country. and we are in hopes
they viii enjoy success in their work
here.

PLAINvIEw's FIRST GIN IS
TURNING OUT THE COTTON

About ITO bales Of cotton have
been ginned in Plainview to date. 20
bales came in yesterday morning.
From all over the county the fleecy
staple Is pouring into the Plninview
gin.
Farmers are making haste 10 get
their cotton out for fear that rain
will come bringing drop in the
grade Of the cotton, and running
much of the younger forms on the
stalks.
Capt. Winfield Holbrook Of rhe
Plainview Gin Company says that
the quality Of the cotton raised TINS
year is gratifyingly high. While the
staple is necessarily a little short,
the cotton is Of good color and there
is very little foreign material.
Cotton has been selling the past
few days at around 1880 cents up
10 10 cents. The adverse situation
in Europe. with reference to the
war, has caused a slight depression
in the cotton market.
Seed has been selling az $500
per ton. Many Of the farmers, how
even, are taking the best Of their
seed home with them so as 10 have
il for planting purposes next year.
The Gin Company, Mr.. Holbrook
said, is not expecting any bollies
until the first Of November. On ac-
count of the high price this year, he
thinks that farmers will dc well 70

opened after the first frost The

The Bisbee Review, in an injured tone requests
the Republican newspapers Of Arizona worry

for Governor and to restrain socitude for the
welfare Of the party in the forthcoming primary
eerning the position former Governor Hunt may
occupy in the melee.
It is asking good deal of us to bottle up our
benevolent purposes serve neghbors in distress
and to deny them good advice or let them go on
the perils which await them without warning when
they taking no notice Of the rocks ahead.
n Republican newspapers are not built that way
They are animated by sweet and fresh spirit Of
heipfuness the part Of the newspapers which
somehow find expression, would to the galIy
bitterness Of regret within them.
The Republican newspapers are aware as the
Democratic newspapers that the Democratic party
Is confronted by Old Man Trouble. who be
side stepped by ignoring him. Something affirmative
must be done about 1t and SO far as has been OBJ
served the Democratic press has done nothing.
Naturally. the Republican papers are worried and
want to do all they can ameorate the condition
their brethren in travail.
we would suggest meeting Of the state press
association where the Republican papers could meet
with the Democratic papers to advise and coun-
sci with them concerning the problems Of the Demo-
cratic party.
We hope and feel sure that we shall hear from
the Prescott Courier. the Arizona Star, the Bisbee
Review. the Douglas international, the Morning sun
OF Yuma and the silver Belt Of Miami that the sug-
gsstion win received the kindly spirit in which
it is offered.

a just am

There can be no good reason offered why stage
lines engaged in the transportation of freight
passengers expensively built public highways
should not contribute the state counties
thing in exchange for the privilege which is given
them and something in return the taxpayers which
have afforded them this privilege.
Senate Bill 81, which proposes such return has
been amended that all reasonable objection to it
has been met. Nothing is to be exacted from these
transportation companies of their receipts from
and freight charges natural roads; only over
improved roads which have cost much in some
cases $4,000 mile
The return, eight per cent Of their gross receipts
is certainly exorbitant The companies will find
it profitable transport passengers and freight
improved roads and pay such dividend to the
state than retain all gross receipts for
portation Of the passengers and freight
improved roads
Beside there is other traffic improved
roads so wearing to them auto passenger and
freight transportation
But with that Senate Bill s1 has nothing to do
1t is not regulatory but purely fiscal measure.
Another BILL the Larson bill, which now ready for
the signature of the governor takes of the i'm
proved highways by imposing regulations as to weight
Of vehicles, width of tires, and speed.
We believe, moreover that the dividend plan is
the fairest of securing return from users Of
the improved highways for profit. The gasoline tax
plan is inaccurate plan while tax, IL persists
in calling it tax based upon profits must be re-
garded just
