Panhandle News.
Robert Cornett, a Shamrock stock-
man, was shot and seriously wound-
ed one day last week by hit brother-
in-law, R. L. Stansbury. The two
men met on the school ground, both
being on horseback, and after a
short conversation the shooting took
place. Some hope is expressed for
the recovery of the wounded man.
Hartley citizens are having a
$15,000 school building erected,
work on which is progressing rapidly.
During the present term of the
The bond of Dr. T. B. Richardson
of Childress, charged with killing
his father-in-law, G. H Chipman,
has been placed by the court at
$5,000. The defendant readily gave
the bond and was released.
The five-weeks-old girl baby of
Guy Hunter and wife, who live in
Hardeman county, died one day last
week in a wagon while her parents
were taking her to the doctor's office
in Quanah.
Mrs. Lockey Young, an esteemed
lady of the Lazare community in
Hardeman county, died the other
day. She was 88 years old and is
said to have been the oldest inhabi-
tant of the county.
E. A. Harp, a Plainview capitalist,
has petitioned the city council of his
home city for a twenty-year fran-
chise to build, equip and operate a
street railway line, to be operated by
electricity, steam or gasoline. The
council has not yet acted upon the
matter, but will do so at their next
regular meeting.
Russell Montgomery, formerly of
Dalhart, has purchased Cedar Brook
ranch, one of the choice properties
of the Looking Glass valley near
Rosebud, Ore., and will engage in
the stock, horticultural and lumber
business.
At the monthly session of the
Commissioners Court of Castro
county last week it was found that
2,557 rabbits bad been killed and
the scalps turned in to the county
clerk since Dec. 15. In December
the Commissioners placed a bounty
of three cents on every rabbit killed
after the 15th. A large number of
the rabbits were killed while the
saow was on in December.
Rumor says we will soon have a
new R. R. in Castro county, running
from the main line from Hereford to
Dimmitt on through to Plainview on
the old grade. Also will have a
daily mail from Kress in a short
time. Castro county is coming to
the front. She has one of the best
high schools in the state, has a
$30,000 court house, telephone ser-
vice over the county, is now raising
and shipping some of the finest cattle,
hogs and sheep that are shipped to
the K. C. and Ft. Worth markets.
Get busy everyone, don't be a
knocker, be a booster.—Hart Cor-
respondent in Dimmitt Plainsman.
John Foster has been arrested at
Farwell, charged with impersonating
an officer and extorting $45 from a
Mexican, says the Tribune.
NO TIME WASTED
Prompt Action is Pleasing
Many Hereford Citizens
Get down to the cause of every-
thing.
Bad backs are frequently caused
by weak kidneys.
Help the kidneys to get rid of kid-
ney backache.
Doan's Kidney Piils are for the
kidneys only.
No time wasted trying to cure
other troubles.
Hereford people endorse their
merit.
Mrs. Elizabeth Tomamichael, 506
Miles Ave., Hereford, Texas, says:
"About two months ago I procured a
box of Doan's Kidney Pills from
Woodburn & Son's Drug Store, as I
was then suffering from pain in my
back, together with stiffness in my
loins. I found Doan's Kidney Pills
to be good for this trouble and also
a good tonic for the kidneys. They
were prompt and effective and I ad-
vise their use in all cases of kidney
complaint. I do not think there is a
better kidney medicine to be had
than this one."

Prune aad Plant Trees.
There's no better time than right
now to plant trees. A few choice
plums or cherries put in the missing
places will keep the orchard young.
Cut out or prune the old peach trees.
Look over your apple orchard—
watch for borers. If you do not rid
your trees of these pests, they will
soon kill all the trees. Home raised
trees are best for your family or-
chard. Select only hardy varieties.
Your orchard needs a thoro pruning.
Go thru the orchard, tree by tree;
don't be afraid you will prune too
much. Cut off the too high and too
long limbs from the peach trees.
Open up your apple trees with the
knife and saw. To prevent the wind
from swinging the bearing limbs,
cross-tie a few smaller limbs to
steady the tree. If you don't know
to prune, ask some one who does
know. And lastly, don't forget the
spray. Right now is the best time
for apples and peaches. The pre-
pared sprays are best and easy to
handle. The coddling moth will
destroy most of the apples this year
as the winter is warm and a good
crop of eggs were deposited last
year in the neglected orchards.
Don't forget to plant a few trees
each year. A front row along the
sidewalk—a back row in the garden
—plant trees.
