Why Cole's Hot Blast
la Iiiiii awn Over AH Hsstfaj Stoves
Every part of Cole's Hot Blast Heater is a stove masterpiece.
Am* government patents permit thetn on Cole's Hot Blast only.
Every little detail contributes towards making Cole's Hot
Blast the fuel saver, a perfect heal radiator, a stove that holds
fire from Saturday night to Monday morning, and the cleanest
stove ever set up.

The air-tight construction holds back the
heat and gases wasted up the chimney with
other stoves. The hot blast draft burn* the
15.OX) feet of gas which is in every ton of
soft coal. The heavy castings surround-
ing the fire protect the body of the stove
at all points, and the sensitive, all-steel,
tadiating surface radiates all the heat into
the rooms.
One season's use will cut your
fuel bill in two and iive you
satisfaction such as you never
believed possible with a heater.
m Will you come ia and see?
Hereford now. Go.
Ceauaerdal Club Meets. j
The Hereford Commercial Club
met in the rooms of the Secretary'
on Tuesday night and discussed |
many problems of vital importance j
relating to Hereford and her future, j
A great many matters were discuss-!
ed which for lack of space cannot be
published this time, but the people of
Hereford can rest assured that with-
in the next twelve months they will
never regret the fact that they live
in the best city on the Plains, and will
be able to say to every visitor ,
YOU'LL LIKE HEREFORD.

Will Have A Fine Exhibit—W. B.
Green in Charge.
On Tuesday W. B Green left
here in charge of tne agricultural
exhibit of Castro county which will
be one of the finest ever sent out of
the county. The collection of vege-
tables, fruits, etc., weighed nearly
1000 pounds and will make a re-
markable showing for our neighbor-
ing county at the Dallas Fair. The
Brand regrets that it was unable to
get a list of exhibits and exhibitors
as everything was boxed and crated,
but we extend congratulations and
sincerely hope that Castro county
will win her share of the Blue Rib-
bons, for she certainly deserves
credit for the energy and interest
displayed in getting up the exhibit.
Prohibition in the Panhandle.
The most ardent advocate of pro-
hibition should be more than satis-
fied with the showing that the Pan-
handle makes, for out of a total of
twenty-six counties in what is known
as the Panhandle proper, there are
but two counties in which liquor is
sold, namely : Dallam and Oldham,
and half of the latter went dry in a
recent election. The bibulous trav-
eler cannot get a drink now between
Wichita Falls and Dalhart, and it is
certainly a long time between drinks
when traveling on the Ft. Worth &
Denver. The prohibition sentiment is
Criminal Statistics.
It is with pride that we call at-
tention to the fact that under the
above head there will be but very
little to compile as Deaf Smith coun-
ty has had but four homicides since
its organization, in spite of the fact
that it is a frontier county. Of these
homicides three were fouud to be
justifiable and the defendant in the
remaining one received a sentence
of 15 years in the penetentiary.
Surely a remarkable showing and
one that some of our older counties
would like to possess.
