Barrier Dozes 96 Acres of Brush Near Willow City
J H Barrier across two pastures west of Gillespie County reports brush control on 96 acres this summer. Cedar removal followed by windrow and seedbed prep aims for coastal bermuda planting in January. Last year about 400 acres were sprigged as seedbeds form and grasses recover. Nearby residents and visitors include Walter Parker Sr and Jr, the Parkers of Kerrville, Mrs Antonette Acker of Alpine, and Jimmie Hart’s family members from Kerrville Texarkana and Houston.

Range and Field Notes on Deer, Dams, Lime Kiln Tales
Reports show deer numbers dropping after doe hunting began on a field near Fredericksburg. Jenschke notes fewer deer locally and near his farm seven miles south of the town. Community interest grows in the Eastern Hill Country RC&D Project, including Koeffler's Sandy Creek dam plans and a survey by SCS. Lime kiln activity near Stonewall explains historic mortar use for the Texas White House and local houses. Also notes U.S. efficiency in farming, National Farm City Week, and the 18th annual Texas Range Management meeting December 6-7 in Anson.
