Cattle Shipment Arrives
At Wyoming Ranch
Reeves Brown, Mathis rancher
and Hereford breeder, recently
shipped a truck load of 18 month
old bulls to Wyoming. Mrs. Brown
reported this week that the bulls
arrived at their destination, Gil-
lette, Wyo., only 36 hours after
they left Mathis.
Of special interest to the Browns
was the special truck in which the
bulls were shipped. Wyoming
ranchers call it a “bull pullman.”
It is a 38 foot trailer with remov-
able side slats that could be set
in or removed according to weath-
er conditions. It required a special
permit to negotiate "Texas high-
ways.
In fhe shipment were 27 bulls
purchased by the LO Bar-Cattle
Co. of Weston, Wyo. It was ithe
second purchase of bulls from the
Brown ranch by the company. The
first was in 1954. The bulls raised
on the ranch are said to respond
well to range and weather condi-
tions in Wyoming.

Cubs Still Hold
First Place Spot In
Little League Play
The Cubs, inversing their posi-
tion fromlast year, have taken a
strong stand for first place in Lit-
tle League play in Mathis having
won four games and lost none.
The Dodgers, last year’s champs
are in second place after getting
off to a much slower start than
last season when they only lost
two out of 18 games.
The Atheletics and Yankees, who
are both lacking in the pitching
department, are in a close race
for third place.
Most of the Little League games
so far this year ha’ve been fairly
close with the boys playing better
ball than they did at the close
of season last year.
Beginning with the week of May
28 all Little League and Pony
League games will be played on
Mbnday, Tuesday, and Thursday,
Friday nights. Some of the Pony
League games were postponed
this week because of school act-
ivities.

V. F. W. To Sell
Poppies Here
On Saturday
At the regular meeting of Mathis
V. F. W. Post No. 3079 Tuesday
night it was unanimously agreed
to sell the official V. F. W. Poppy
in Mathis on May 26, 1956, which
is~* the last Saturday before Me-
morial Day. Commander Jack A.
Buck, presided at the meeting. In
commenting on the sale, Com-
mander Buck stated that the Sen-
ior Vice Commander of the Post,
Elmor F. Beyer would be the
Chairman of the poppy committee
and all members, men. women and
children in this community will be
salesmen and poppy boosters.
The proceeds of this sale are
used only for relief work, and not
a penny of the amount collected,
will be used for administrative
work or any other expense and the
entire amount collected will be
deposited in the account of the
V. F. W. relief fund, in Mathis.
The hospital equipment owned
and loaned by the veteran’s or-
ganizations such as the local post,
has been purchased by poppy
money in the past, and the equip-
ment is loaned to any citizen in
the community without a penny in
charges for its use. All donations
made to the V. F. W. Poppy Fund,
are deductible from Federal In-
come Tax ^Returns, and the local
post will cheerfully issue a re-
ceipt for any donation for your
use in having the same deducted
from income tax returns. The fol-
lowing resolution was passed:
“BE IT RESOLVED’’ that we, the
members of Post No. 3079, sincere-
ly urge each and every citizen in
Mathis, Texas, to contribute gen-
erously, so the money produced
by our fine community will not all
be sent to Revenue Department,
but some of it left in our own
community for the assistance of
the needy and less fortunate. Too
much of our tax money paid into
the Treasury is being loaned and_
given away to foreign countries,
and will never be paid. We believe
that care of the needy should be-
gin at home. Americans first, last
and always.”
For The Commander of the V.
F. W. Post No. 3079
For The Chairman of the Buddy
Poppy Committee Official:
Percy A. Hartman,
Post No. 3079, Mathis, Tex.

City Secretary Reports
Confusion In Recent
MinimumRate Change
Since the announcement last
week of the change in the mini-
mum water rate, City Secretary
Clifton Berry said that there has
been much confusion from peo-
ple thinking that the wager rates
have gone up.
In explaining the situation this
week he said that there has been
no change in the water rate. The
minimum has been raised from
$2.00 for 3,000 gallons to $2.50
for 4,000 gallons. This'is the same
price that 4,000 gallons has been
in the past. All persons who use
that much water or more per
month wll not be paying any
more than they have been.
The only people this rate will
affect is those who in the past
were not even using the old min-
imum of 3,000 gallons. These will
now have to pay an additional
50 cents for their minimum bill.
