Brownfield Chamber approves $400 budget cut
Brownfield Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors approves a revised budget of 34,600 for next year, down from 35,000, with the largest cut in insurance.

House Recalls Early History of Terry County
The feature recalls how J T Harrington moved to Terry County in 1902 with Laurie and their children, building a one room shack and later the Lubbock Highway house. The Ridgways remember wolves at night, cattle rustlers, wagon trips from Big Spring, and a life sustained by land and meat on the table. Babe Ridgway, the surviving family member, reflects on how times have changed.
