Hopo theyll bo giving somo more
way this spring Sorry they
quit having Trades Day as I think
fine Jersey cows and hogs also
thats tho best way to got a
tart of flno grade stock as some
poople are slow about such things
There is always somo around you
from Missouri you know judging
by their actions and havo to bo
shown so that is a good way to
show them if they should happen
to get a prize by not having to
pay a good price for it If yon
j ford was In our midst seeing
after business Interests
Yo Scribe of Whitfield possibly
I enn help you about gottlng
rid of that clinging dog of
yours Mnke a friendly call on
Mr R O Wheeler of Houston
community and bring the dog
along as I feel suro ho will keep
him tho rest of his days because
ho is a sympathizing old soul and
ho already has many dogs somo
of tho llttlo boys of Tulla stopped
him when ho was moving from
Valloyviow to Houston recently
and asked him if ho was the
Pound Man said they had somo
to glvo him ho had two or three
on tho wagon with him and threo
or four following But if ho
ovor finds out whos writing this
youll havo to help mo out C
How is that book of yours pro
grossing and do toll us the title
I feel suro woro all anxious to
read it Id llko to bo a writer
too but tho nearest I over camo
to being ono was to havo a
Palmist toll mo I had a writ
ers hand but do bolievo I could
write Sormonottes really for
always want to toll people that
havo tho bighead excuse tho
slang how foolish thoy are Its
worso than foolish something
lncking in tho uppor Btory Dont
you know it usually affects the
girls more than boys sometimes
older poople and when it
does well a body can look over
young folks for they dont know
any bottor and theres room for
improvement but older folks My
Somo girls wont notico other
girls because thoy imagino maybe
they think thoy aro prottlor than
thoy aro jealousy you know or
maybo thoy havo tho bighead
because thoy havo somo accomplishment
others dont have possibly
becuuso thoyvo had a bettor
chance and again others havo
kinfolks that thoy think aro next
to being rich when if the truth
was known and their debts were
it is a groat thing to havo Whata pald thoy wouldnt bo much bet
the matter folks Plalnviow has tor off than tho rest of us clod
boon having them for years andhoppers oven if thoy wero better
we dont want to bo very far bej off financially other would bo bet
hind them do woT If wo wantjter off morally and spiritually and
to Boost our town and ofthat is what counts So you peo
course wo all do Plainriew givespie that rub shoulders with others
at church on Sunday and give
thorn tho vacant stare think twice
then speak Now isnt that a
pretty good Sormonette You
folks may throw mo clear out of
the writers club but I assuro you
Im not hinting at any of you
because I dont know but a very
few of you that I know of and
I consider the ones I do know as
friends I have meant this most
try to sell somo men flno registhy for somo foolish girls I know
erod stock theyll say Oh I
can buy somo from so and so
cheap trying to fool themselves
into thinking the ro just ns
good so you soo a Trades Day
in Tulia equal to Plaiuviows
Trades Day would bo a great
thing for tho business men of
Tulla as woll as tho farmers
C D Shaw propiotor of Bean
and Shaw Barber Shop of Hero
hoping they will see themselves
as others see them for it is a
pity to seo a pretty girl with bad
habits But wo all have our
faults dont wo If we would
only remedy them what a nice
place this old world would bo in
which to live

ANOTHER PORCUPINE
STORY
Tho article about tho porcuplno
bolng the only ono captured on
tho Plains is a mistake ns Ive
known of several Willis Brows
ter son of Mr nnd Mrs J L
Brewster caught ono two yonrs
ago coming homo from school at
Lakeviow on Sam Caraways
place which corners with Will
Jowells Mr Gunkoys nnd Mr
Cowans places seven miles wost
of town He tried to ropo it and
lead it homo but didnt havo
much success Wo noticod something
was wrong bo tho men
folks wont up in tho car and sav
ho couldnt bring it that way and
of course wouldnt attempt to pick
it up but happened to think
about having a wlro chicken coup
with a sliding door nnd wont back
ntter it opened tho door and
turned it over on him and brought
him homo on tho sldo of tho car
Ono would think thoy would bo
hard to tamo but they aro ono of
tho easiest wild animals tamed
I over saw providing you dont
teaso them ho got to bo so tamo
wo could turn him out and hod
follow us Ono night ho got out
nnd crawled in the bed with Willis
sleeping on tho porch it woke
him up as tho > havo coarso hairs
which are longer than tho needloi
but didnt hurt him as thoy wout
hurt you unless you mako thorn
mad Ho got out another time
and wandered off but camo bnck
in throo days so you seo thoy
aro great pots Wo would turn
tho coop on ono sido nnd hod
crawl back in it by getting on
th opposite sldo with something
for him to eat They livo on vegetables
nnd fruit and will ait up
like a prairie dog and oat Ive
heard thoy wero quito numerous
around Nazareth and Dimmitt
Mr Bogq north of town also killed
ono about tho time wo captured
ours possibly tho mato to
it They soom to bo traveling
east as thoy aro plentiful in
Arizona and parts of New Moxlco

THE TUL1A TIERALD
frostbitten gray mornings whon
lantern in hand ho walked
through tho drifts to the bnrn
fed tho stock milked tho cows
throw down hay watered tho
horses and cleaned out tho stables
before brcnkfnst
Holl tell you of mornings whon
tho lco in wash basin had to bo
broken with a hatqhet of the
drifts that camo to his shoulders
of the stock huddled together for
warmth in tho bnrn
Then you toll him this ono
Down in Tennessee a certain
ambitious nnd progressive farmer
has Installod a radio in his cow
stable nnd his cows havo individual
drinking cups
Tho herd must bo kept choor
ful if they produce their full
quota of milk says ho
Danco music brings down tho
lnctyl fluid in more copious measure
than soprana or tenor ballads
ho has discovered
Before tho farnior bought his
cows tho radio thoy had to iot
along as bcBt they could with a
phonograph
Tho hired man of tho years ago
will scoff at this tale of course
But sorlotiBly is it so absurd
Tho individual drinking cups
sound only rcnsonnblo when wo
rend of herdB Bwept by various
diseases Plain sanitary pro
cautions for cattle do not sound
so much absurd than plain sanitary
precautions for humans
As for tho dulcet strains on tho
other havent we humans boon
warned for decades not to oat
whon worried or angry Havent
wo been told that sereno happy
dining table is tho groatost preventative
of illness
Isnt it renaonablo to assumo
then that entertained cows will
do tliolr duty more cheerfully
and copiously than neglocted
ones Paris Nows
