Local Happenings
Some more nice rain the first
of the week.
Vesty Bray was a business
viator at Lamar last Saturday.
It may not rain again for a
l liousanil years; so hold on to the
moisture you’ve got.
Roy Denney had a relapse of
.measles the first of the week and
Dr. Verity was called, but is now
O. K.
John Rolphs proved up before
Com. Speckmann Monday, using)
Dillard Collins and C, A. Hughes j
as witnesses.
Decoration day was largely
attended ut Blaine, among those
present being Mr. and Mrs.
W. M; Stewart of Springfield.
A private note from Mary and
the lamb says: you bet, we’re not
done laughing yet, at the way we
made that teacher sweat.
The wheat harvest this year
promises to be the richest picking
for many years past, which will
be a pood thing for a whole lot
of Baca county people.
Miss Mertie Stephenson of the
Grandview country made final
proof on her claim the 7th inst.
before S. E. Speckmann, using
W. H. Stephenson and H. S.
Manlove as witnesses.
Chas Hughes of Butcher, want
ed the land just bad enough to
bring Dillard Collins and John
Rolphs along to Springfield to
help him get it. Com. •peckmann.
Monday.
At a dinner given in honor of
assessor Brown’s birthday Sun
day, there were present David
Konkel and wife and their daugh
ter Carrie, W. A. Fields, H. A.
Green, Geo. Cramb, and Jake.
Lasley. A sumptuous dinner was
partaken of, and an enjoyable
time was reported by those pres
ent.
After Mary and her lamb got
through with the mutton-eating
teacher they trotted off to the
Butcher country and rounded up
Chas. A. Hughes, who came in,
the first of the week and put
down the dough for another
year’s baking. Thanks to Mary
and her lamb, thanks to C. A.
Hughes.
In that fair procession an in
spiring contrast with ten years
ago would be the auto mail cars,
as loaded now with mail at their
best, and the hacks, buggies,
and imrsebackers that carried
the mail ter. years ago. At that
time there was a hack to Lamar,
a buggy to Stonington, and a
buggy or horsebacker to Carrizo.
After having consumed several
yards of space and about a gal-1
lon of ink, to say nothing of the
sleep lie must have lost, in a
vain effort to put through a
county fair, the Herald man has
finally gotten onto the right track
and is now pulling for a tem
porary county fair association.
Although Editor Konkel’s
name is not on the petition, we
know iie is in sympathy with it,
and now Bince someone has
shown him the right track we
feel sure his efforts in the direc
tion of a county fair will not be,
without results. We’re withl
you brother. But why make it*
temporary?—Artesia Call. i
It was the many valued con
tribute™ to the Herald and its
efficient corps of correstwndents
that pointed out the right track
—and used the ink and space.
The sleep we lost was over wor
ry at the slowness of oar con
tent pot aries to join in and help
to find the way; bat now that the
right way lies been found, the
necessity for united effort fa
greater than ever.

TO THE PUBLIC
awes,.,, f
THIS Company has purchased of the Horn Hardware and
Furniture Company their entire stock of Hardware and
Furniture, which business has been in charge of Mr. Her
schel Horn, and conducted at 117 South Main street.
All of this stock will promptly-be moved to our quarters at 222 North Main street, where we are re
modeling our brick storeroom, which, when completed, will give us seven thousaud (7000) square feet of
i ground floor space, the largest of any store in Lamar, and probably the most modern between Hutchinson 1
and Pueblo. U*
Orders have been placed for two Carloads of House Furnishings, which, together with the Horn
stock, will give our customers a complete assortment to select from—in fact, the most up-to-date line in
the Arkansas^Valley
Mr. Hersciud Horn, as soon os actual transfer is made, becomes assocint
| ed with this Company, and will join with the rest of its employes in endeav- ,
C oring lo give to iis customers t lie class of service and attention which has gfc
characterized this Company in the past. w#
Our patrons, which already include the great “Value Observing Public" of Prow
ers, Bent, Baca and Kiowa Counties, will please bear in mind that our going so exten
sively into the General Hardware and House Furnishing business will in no wise cause
us to loosen the tight grip we have gained in the Lumber and Building Material and Coal
U business, and we will continue to carry the same large "Ready to Serve" stock which
we have ip the past and at the same prices which has-brought us business from the #
Texas and Oklahopna borders. H
To our town patrons, we would respectfully call attention that while “It’s a litUe further, it will pay ||
you to walk.” To arrive at this cc.r.clusipn yourt-elf only requires a few figures and a little reasoning: II
First; We pay no rent,
Second; We do not have to make returns on high- W
priced real estate, H
Third; We operate nine places of business, and buy II
for spot cash in large quantities at the lowest ||
market price. II
Fourth: Our motto is “Volume of Business," not U
g “Volume of Profit." --
8
Buyers of Wire, Field and Poultry Fence and Corrugated Iron will please remember we buy this stock
in car lots and are thus enaolcd to beat nil competition. y U>,S SKX!K
We carry a large and complete stock of Paints. Oils, Glass and Wall Paper. It means Money to you
pi to see us before buying. * v w J uu
