In Pemiscot County Missouri farmers fight Johnson grass that harms West, with state laws in Oklahoma against its spread. The Hayti Herald notes unified action to prevent seeding and proper roadside mowing. It also reports Missouri Dental Association debating code of advertising and possible shift to legitimate dental ads before decay, signaling future regulatory changes.
The speaker argues against cheap or no license for street photographers. They advocate a stiff city ordinance to fund a first class gallery and keep traveling fakirs from operating on the streets, asserting such vendors harm photography and humiliate the public. The aim is to protect residents from low quality and to promote respectable street commerce.
The public was informed last week that the concrete sidewalk and due tax ordinances would be published this week but the matter was neglected at the last meeting. Traditionally the city clerk published ordinances as soon as passed to keep people posted, but the present clerk is not allowed that privilege. Only one board member has objected to publishing.
The Howti Herald states no reductions on subscriptions or advertising offers, claiming the paper is worth every cent. It notes no schemes and asserts revenue from ads exceeds costs, while promising fair treatment to a long list of subscribers and advertisers.
A writer complains that cost should be payable immediately when a case is settled in circuit court and urges courts to record cost amounts. They reference a separate western jury dispute and an Atlanta trial for breach of promise, noting possible motive to disrupt Tim.
Warning about Woodlawn Cemetery plots at Granite Okla. Property belongs to Revd. Sandides and others who claim unpermitted possession. Individuals who occupied or claimed lots without authorization should call at the office to settle and obtain receipts. Records must be kept for authorities and trustees.
The city warns that all taxes are now due and unpaid taxes will be collected promptly. The notice states taxes must be paid immediately and promises enforcement if payment is not made. Signed by the city treasurer and date listed as June 15.
The notice requests readers to note their own name printed on the paper or wrapper, and to be aware that the subscription date is four days overdue. It asks readers to keep this in mind and to renew promptly when their time expires.

W. FE. Miller who started the Southeast Missouri Republican in Kennett and moved it to Senathy has left the country. Creditors are attempting to sell the plant, recalling that Hayti residents of all political persuasions who never used the Herald patronized the Republican.
A call for stricter laws to regulate money lenders and money sharks aims to protect poor borrowers. The speaker notes small loans can carry usurious rates from 12 to 100 percent, leaving borrowers worse off after repayment. The proposed reform targets abusive practices to shield the needy.
A cautious editorial says business leaders should use honorable means to grow trade and avoid attacking competitors. It argues that decrying rivals shows weakness and will rebound, urging merchants and printers to rely on their own merits and let competitors imitate.
Southeast Missouri Telephone Co has sold to the Kansas City Missouri Bell System. The acquisition promises expanded access to farm homes with more phones and improved rural service, a major convenience for country residents who value reliable wood telephone connections.
Recent rains reduced crop failure risk or shortages in much of the country. The rains, from New Mexico east, ease drought pressures and will slow the buildup of home supplies and surplus.
A terse note asserts that missing items appear only when the Herald is not informed. The remark frames gaps in coverage as a failure to report rather than a lapse by the newspaper. No person or organization is named.
