A fragmented Baxter Springs page lists the Katy Flyer, Dr. A J Thompson dentist, insurance ties, local improvements, and varied notices. It describes Jetmore waterworks, electric streetcar plans, a palm reader misdirection tale, Noble Mining venture, and an amended Kansas quarantine order with cattle movement rules.
Kansas livestock authorities publish detailed quarantine rules affecting cattle from Texas and Oklahoma, outlining inspection, tick testing, disinfection, and transport limitations. The document names specific counties and townships, mandates affidavits, and sets penalties for violations.
A garbled notice lists sale prices on wallpaper 3c per roll and paints 80c a gallon, plus references to camera supplies, spring tonics, and laundry services. Mentions Memphis Route one fare round trip and a June 5 Kansas City event. Also notes Mrs Fishburn visiting Baxter Springs and a Katy Flyer item.
