Austin Tevns Ort. IH. Governor
Hobby today issued the following
proclamation '
"It needs no reminder from the
executive offio to turn the heart
and mind of the people of this State
to Tuesday Nov. 11 HUH. the. first
anniversary of the day upon which
became effective the arm in ice
ngrccd upon by the contenders in the
great world war.
i "About every hearthstone in this
' State yfhered thoae v. hose daily
' prayers were for the success of the
! arms of all nations which America
was associated and for safe return
of our cijr.cn soldiery who hud jour-
j neyed overseas to break the power
; destroy the will and humble the pride
of that military machine that sought
: to put every nation in subjection.
For more than three years we had
witnessed an unequal contest. Com-
1 bined armies of allied nations were
giving way to the advance of the in-
j vader and the fortunes of war did
I not turn until the flower of Ameri-
I can manhood supported by the spir.
! it of American womanhood had join-
' ed the conflict. From the hour of
the first American drive the title oi
battle turned and one victory fol'ow-
I ed another in such succession i that
' the enemy welcomed the opportunity
j to sign the agreement that would be
followed by the order to 'cease fir-
in.'
j "The Imperial State of Texas pave
of her men and her women her
wealth and her products; conswrat-
' ed her soil to Government purpose
'and shared with every other State in
I the sacrifices that were necessary to
I maintain those who had joined the
; grentest overseas expedition that ever
j set 'afloat.

"Imperial Texas had her part in
i the great world war and her sons
! now sleep on Flanders Field mar-
! tyrs to the noblest crusade upon
which a people ever moved. We glor-
j ify your sacred dead and every
i thought is a memorial to those who
made the supreme sacrifice. We
honor those who have returned i us
and we make places for them in so-
cial industrial and public life
count intr it a privilege to serve :hem.
"It is fitting that we take notice of
the anniversary to which I have call-
ed attention; it is fitting that we
who have passed through the agon-
izing hours of the conflict should
make this first anniversary such an
event that it will inspire in those
who are to follow us and who will
learn the story as it is handed to
them to forever give it proper ob-
servance that the memory of the
i victory for world peace will be im-

MR. PROGRESSIVE FARMER
April 18H3 I started Farm and
Ranch I believed then although their
number in Texas was not very num-
erous that he progressive farmers
and livestock breeders would patron-
ize a real farm and livestock paper
serving faithfully their interests at
all times. I was not disappointed in
my conclusions.
Many who became subscribers with
that first issue have continued to
read Farm and Ranch without miss
ing a number. 1 value very highly i
their continued loyalty and faith in
Farm and Ranch and leave it to them i
and to the many who have sine be-
come patrons and friends to say if I
have kept faithfully my promise to
make the paper a powerful consist-
to lent supporter of the best interests

After spending about three years
in the vicinity of what is generally
known as the garden spot of Arizona
that being the territory near Phoenix
V. C. Davis who has recently mov-
ed hi family here to make their
j home thinks the South Plains better
I than ever. Mr. Davis is one of our
former citizens who thought he was
dissatisfied with this country and its
I winds drouths etc. He left here
'. about three years ago and went to
I Phoenix to farm. Here he says he
fought Johnson grass tried to grow j
i crops on land killed by alkali and
I finally went to work for wages which
j were lower than those paid here for
the same kind of labor with erpen-
j ses soaring higher and higher all the
I time.
t "Now that I'm back after seeing
'conditions in other countries 1 have
1 decided to get a farm and stay here
regardless of weather conditions in
the future." says Mr. Davis.
