A FINE SET OF HARNESS.
W. W. Morris Purchases From
Will Broad Extra Fine Set.
Saturday morning Air. W. W
Morris ,who lives out in the Nov-
ice community drove dp in front
of Will Broad’s and had his team
clothed in what is probably' the
finest set of harness that has ever
been purchased in the city. The
harness were made by Mr. Broad
and weighed 150 lbs, selling for
$75. The tugs and other .parts of
the set were doubly strengthened
and sewed. ' Brass buttons in pro-
fusion ornamented the harness.
The team of Mr. Morris’ looked
proud of their very nice new set,
and if horses really have pride,
these should certainly have it for
it will be seldom they meet with
their kind comparably dressed.

Spokane. Wash., July 22.—“No
vote, ro husband,” is the slogan
of 250 girls' of marriageable age,
who have just organised the Qol-
lege Equal Suffrage Club of Spo-
kane, with Mrs. Z. W. Comeford
as president.
While the girls will not be
plebged to reject a suitor who is
not a suffragist, the object of the
club is to convert if possible each
suitor to the cause of suffrage.
A Dry Farming Lesson.
In Erhth county, three men
planted cotton in the same field.
When extremely dry weather
came Mr Geo. Lydia and Mr Mil-
ler decided not to work their cot-
ton. Mr. T. J. Lydia cultivated
his without waiting for rain and
made a dust mulch about it.
Later, the first two lost their
crops. T. J. Lydia’s crop is fine
and growing rapidly. Now the
question should be asked by ev-
ery man interested. What made
the difference? The soils were
the same.
The dust mulch preserved the
moisture, and let in moisture fron
the atmosphere. Cultivation per-
mitted air to reach the soils and
roots Of the plants without drying
them out. There are a few strong
instances of the advantages of cul
tivation in dry weather.
Mr. Geo. Lydia and Mr. Miller
have learned by failure. Mr. T.
J. Lydia by success; and tens of
thousands should learn from their
experience. Farm and Ranch.
Time of/ Holding District Court
Tluj^regular session of jthe last
legislature adjourned about the
10th of March, the first called ses
sion about the same date in Apri1
and the second called session on
May 11, and yet the laws passed
by it .many of which have gone
into effect have not been publish-
ed. Why this is so we have had
no explanation and it looks to us
like unnecessary delay.
, In order to ascertain what the
law is attorneys have had to have
certified copies of some of the
laws made at three or four times
the expense of the cost of all the
laws when published.
Judge Randolph recently secured
a certified copy of the act chang-
ing the time of holding court in
this judicial district and from it
we get the information that the
law does not takf effect untilAug
ust 10th.
• Hereafter court will be held in
this county on the 8th Mondays
after the 1st Mondays in Febru-
ary and September. Jurors who
will be summoned to appear at
the next term of our District
Court will have to be on hand
November the 1st instead of first
Monday in September.
Concho county takes the first
half of the time when under the
old law' court was held here and
McCulloch takes the latter half.
Under the law' above referred
to all process issued under the
present law is made effective so as
to require parties to answer to
tile terms of court under the act
which takes effect August 10th.
Mr. E. H. Oliver, an old time
citizen of this county died not
long ago at Tampa, Florida. Be-
fore coming to this state he was
engaged in the practice of law,
but while in this county he was
engaged in the sheep business
southeast of here on Hotoe Creek,
lie is remembered by the early
settlers as a good man and an in-
telligent and valuable citizen.
