Early Hill Country livestock leaders praised for service
The piece recalls Hardin and peers promoting the Lime County Hereford Breeders and the Hill Country Livestock Association. It notes Hardin’s long service as secretary and director, and rodeo promoters financing arena lights in 1938 with a $4,000 note repaid by 1941, plus land donation for the elementary school and stadium bleachers built in 1946. The writings highlight the rodeos’ community impact in Itano County and Central Texas during the first weekend of June.
