The wheels are turning to increase the size of the City of Hereford with intent of adding more than just land to the town.

The Hereford City Commission approved a resolution during its regular meeting Dec. 17 that set the legal process for annexation in motion.

New face as county officials sworn in

By John Carson BRAND Managing Editor

The fruits of labors from almost a year ago finally ripened as newly elected Deaf Smith County officials were officially sworn into office during ceremonies Tuesday at Deaf Smith County Courthouse.

A total of nine county seats were on the block during the 2018 election season with incumbents retaining seven of those spots.

The lone truly new face to take office belonged to Rachel Garman, who took the oath as Deaf Smith County Clerk of Court.

Garman won a threeperson race in the March 6 Republican primary to win the seat outright and oust incumbent clerk Imelda DeLaCerda – the only inPLEASE SEE COUNTY | 3

The call has gone out for the area’s agricultural producers – whether ranchers, farmers or both – to come together and see how to make their lives and businesses better.

The Deaf Smith/Oldham County Farm Bureau, a division of the Texas Farm Bureau, will hold its annual economic summit on Thursday at 6 p.m., in Hereford Community Center.

“We invite all agricultural producers to attend our economic summit,” Deaf Smith/ Oldham Farm Bureau president Jared Blankenship said. “You do not need to be a farm bureau member. All you need is a desire to hone your skills in the areas of marketing and finance.

“This has become an annual event which we believe can be of great value to ag producers whether livestock or grain. Our focus from the beginning has been the economic aspect of agriculture.”

In paring that, Blankenship added that more producers are “very comfortable” with day-to-day operational decisions concerning seed, feed, fertilizer and other items employed on their farm.

“However, most will admit that one area which could be strengthened is the realm of marketing and finance,” he said. “We all love our lifestyle or we would not be here, but at the end of the day, we each must run a profitable business or we will not be here long.

“Recognizing this fact, we sought to create an opportunity for all agricultural producers to develop their knowledge base and skills toward the targeted goal of profitability.”

cumbent to not keep their office.

Although facing no opposition in the Nov. 6 general election, Garman had to go through that formal process before officially winning the election.

“Getting sworn in was a wonderful experience to go through,” Garman said. “It was cool to see everyone sworn in. It was a really special day for me.”

Garman tossed her hat into the ring because she believed the position of clerk “needed changes” from its current operations.

While touting her professional background as providing her “a good fit” for the position, Garman readily admitted her first days in office are being spent learning and looking at ways for the county clerk’s office to become more efficient.

A change Garman did announce to improve accessibility to the office is that starting Monday, the clerk’s office will be open from 8 a.m.-5 p.m., Monday-Friday.

While the overall time frame is unchanged, the office will no longer be closed from noon-1 p.m., each day for lunch.

One thing aiding the new clerk during her first days in office is a staff of deputy and assistant clerks that is intimately familiar with the office’s operations.

“They are a huge asset,” Garman said. “I am really leaning on them to help me with getting experience in doing the job.

“I’m getting my feet wet and learning a lot of things.”

To help prepare for the new post, Garman also shadowed the Potter County Clerk of Court.

The only other elected seat to change hands in the courthouse was that of

From Staff Reports

After being on the other end, Deaf Smith County Judge D.J. Wagner, left, returns the favor Tuesday by swearing in 222nd Judicial District District Judge Roland Saul to another term.

Contributed photo 222nd Judicial District District Attorney.

Long-time assistant DA Chris Strowd ran unopposed in March and November to ascend to the seat left vacant when Jim English retired on Dec. 31.

Just one county seat was contested in November with Republican incumbent D.J. Wagner easily fending off a challenge from Democrat Mona Hernandez.

Wagner, who also defeated Hernandez to win the office in 2014, has one major topic atop his lists of shortterm and long-term goals for a second term.

“The first thing is determining the overall feasibility of a new jail, then examining bond potentials,” Wagner said.

County officials have been awaiting a Texas Jail Commission facility study for almost a year.

As of Thursday, Wagner said the state has requested more information and there was “no idea” on when the report would be submitted.

Battling budget issues over the daily need to house prisoners outside Deaf Smith County, county

officials can make no solid steps forward on a new jail until the feasibility study is in hand.

“We’re looking to get the study to know how many beds we will need,” Wagner said. “We need to know what we need to build before we can get with our bond people to determine potential costs.”

Wagner’s ultimate goal for his second term is to – at the least – have a jail design decided and ground broken for construction.

Wagner, who was sworn in by 222nd District Judge Roland Saul, returned the favor before swearing in Garman.

Wagner also gave the oath of office to returning Precinct 2 Commissioner Jerry O’Connor, Precinct 4 Commissioner Dale Artho, county treasurer Karen Smith and Justice of the Peace Karen Boren.

Saul also administered the oath to Strowd.

Incumbent Elaine Gerber was unable to attend to Tuesday’s ceremony and has since been sworn in for another term as 222nd Judicial District Clerk of Court.

THANK YOU HEREFORD On behalf of your local Salvation Army, we would like to thank Wal-Mart and the Hereford High School MCJROTC for their superior support in our bell ringing campaign for the 2018 Christmas Season.

Additionally we would like to thank the citizens of our community for their generous donations, and for their continued support. All donations stay local and help families in Deaf Smith County.

Sincerely,

Local Salvation Army The Deaf Smith County Child Welfare Board extends a THANK YOU to First Financial Bank staff for again having the Angel Tree in the Bank lobby.

The Angel Tree provides an opportunity for children in foster care to have their Christmas Wish COME TRUE. The board also extends a THANK YOU to each individual, company and/or civic organization who participated in the Angel Tree project or made donations to the DSC Child Welfare Board to help with this project.

The 39th season of fundraising for Hereford’s Christmas Stocking Fund (CSF) concluded with the 2018 donation total a bit off the mark from recent years.

The 2018 effort netted $24,577 toward assisting the community’s less fortunate with basic needs.

This year’s total brings all-time giving to CSF to $782,523.50 since the program’s inception in 1980.

Assistance from CSF, targeted primarily toward children and the elderly, includes vouchers for clothing, utilities and medical needs, as well as food.

The 2018 campaign’s food deliveries were made Dec. 19, and vouchers were mailed to recipients for medical, utility and clothing assistance.

The local charity’s 2018 edition assisted 339 people. Of that, 176 were children. Aid also went to 31 senior citizens, 26 disabled individuals and four special needs cases.

Total expenditures for 2018 assistance were $26,617.14.

Funds spent included $11,500 in clothing aid, $1,879 for heating gas, $2,754 toward water bills, $4,273 in help on electric bills, and $650 toward medical aid.

Total grocery and dry goods assistance to 40 families was $5,441.14.

That amount included $2,157 for 240 pounds of ground beef that was distributed at the rate of six pounds per family.

In keeping with CSF policy, any overages in aid ex-

penses above funds raised during the 2018 campaign were covered with carryover funds.

In its program of assistance with peanut butter supplies for the Hereford Food Pantry in 2018, CSF spent a total $3,758.56 for deliveries in April, August and October.

Complementing the peanut butter was CSF spending $293.10 for jelly to accompany it. Those expenditures are reflective of CSF efforts to help not only at Christmas, but throughout the year.

Tip of the Day Quick and simple ways to make a front door pop Visitors’ impressions of a home are often dictated by the home’s entryway. Must as one may judge a book by its cover, the same can be said about the impression that a front door and entryway can create, regardless of how accurate that impression is.

Making certain changes to an entryway can go a long way toward improving curb appeal. Entryways also can set the scene for a home’s interior. Whether one chooses to be classic or bold, modern or traditional, there are various ways to quickly transform a home’s entryway. · Bold front door color: Color can dramatically enhance an entryway. Painting an existing door or replacing it with a more vivid option can do the trick. The DIY Network says certain colors stand out as favorites. These include turquoise, yellow, red, indigo, orange, and black. The door color should complement the other shades of the home, such as those on siding and trim. · Custom walkway: Guide guests right to the front door with an attractive (and safe) walkway. Stamped concrete or decorative paver blocks may fit the bill. This walkway can extend to the street or to the driveway.

· Contain plants. Landscaping around the entryway should be neat and well-tended. Overgrown plants or shrubbery may give off an air of neglect. Container plants and carefully curated shrubs can create a neat and inviting aura. · Highlight the address. Make sure the home can be found easily with bold and decorative house numbers. Consider two different address signs: one illuminated and easily viewed from the curb, and another closer to the front door. · Utilize highend materials.

The relatively small area of real estate by the front door enables homeowners to splurge on more opulent materials that can really add a feeling of luxury. These can include colorful tiles, ornate planters, decorative wooden doors, or elaborate knobs and lighting fixtures. · Add architectural details. Find out which architectural elements will meld with the style of the home and then incorporate them. Moldings, columns, shutters, and trim are areas to consider.

The entryway to a home garners a lot of attention. Homeowners can enhance their spaces with entryways that really make a statement.

Farming with Mother Nature isn’t easy

By Julie Tomascik Texas Farm Bureau int’l Out-of-market games only. Select

You think farming is easy?

It can seem that way from the outside looking in. Plant seeds. Watch them grow. Then, harvest the crop a few months later.

That’s how it works in the garden, right?

Yes. But this is different.

It’s running tractors and plows. Early mornings.

Late nights. Farmers and ranchers hedging their bets that their crops and livestock will be a success.

They endure the demands of the field. Market swings can take their toll.

And your consumer opinion could leave a harvest at risk.

It ain’t easy.

Like right now. Rains and freezing temperatures make it tough on crops, livestock and farmers.

Cotton harvest was once again stalled in Texas as much of the state receives another round of rain.

Some areas have recorded 20-30 inches of rain since September.

Continued rain is bad for crops, especially cotton. And along the Coastal

games excluded.

Bend, farmers were counting on this year’s cotton crop after last year’s was devastated by Hurricane Harvey.

Then there’s the countless hours spent in the fields and pastures working the land. The sweat.

Blood. A few tears. And thousands of dollars for fuel and equipment.

Yet farmers and ranchers keep going.

Even when it sometimes

means spending many early mornings and late nights away from family and friends. Or missing a few special events, like weddings, birthdays and ballgames.

Because they work for more than just themselves, they carry a heavy burden. Only a few – about 2 percent – are tasked with feeding a growing population amid daunting regulations.

And, after all that, a paycheck isn’t waiting every two weeks.

Farming and ranching ain’t easy.

But it’s the satisfaction of a hard day’s work and of doing something for others. Fulfilling dreams.

And facing the uncertainty with faith and optimism.

Farmers and ranchers are the beating heart of Texas agriculture.

“We will have one session focused on marketing of crops and livestock,” he said. “Numerous tools

available to producers will be discussed with the intent of limiting the risks inherent to agriculture.”

That session will be conducted by Brock Thompson of TruTrading.

Steelee Fischbacher of Texas Wheat Producers will present a program on the wheat industry and outlook for 2019.

The summit’s final information session will have Max Harrison of the Texas Cattle Feeders Associa-

tion taking a look at where the livestock industry is heading.

“We believe there is great value in reviewing our plans and refining our approach toward profitability if we, as an industry, are going to be competitive in the world economy,” Blankenship said. “At the very least, we invite all producers – whether associated with the farm bureau or not – to enjoy the steak dinner and see what is offered.”

Light bulbs start to switch on for Lady Whitefaces

Herd ‘making progress’ on court

From Staff Reports

From Staff Reports

The Hereford Whitefaces tucked the holidays behind them Tuesday in a 57-41 loss to visiting Lubbock Monterey.

The loss snapped a twogame win streak for the Herd to put their holiday mark at 2-3 and 9-14 on the season.

The New Year’s Day tilt came on the heels of the Whitefaces’ trip to the Dec. 27-29 Childress tournament, where they finished 2-2.

“We learned a lot,” Hereford coach C.J. Villegas said of the tourney. “We have to get better with second-chance points. We have to get better at converting those.

“We’re making the progress we want right now.”

The Whitefaces were never in their tournament Senior Haz Castaneda (14) led the Whitefaces in scoring in three opener – falling behind of the four games at the Dec. 27-29 Childress tournament.

With team play proving coach’s rhetoric prophetic, the Hereford Lady Whitefaces played some of their best thus far this season in the massive Lubbock Caprock Tournament.

The 200 plus-team tourney was divided into two divisions – Classes 4-6A and Classes 1-3A – with the Lady Herd among the smaller schools in the larger division.

After dropping the first two games, the Lady Whitefaces rebounded to finish the tournament 2-2 and improve to 9-12 to match last season’s win total.

“We were two or three possessions away from being 4-0,” first-year Hereford coach Bryan Lintner said. “I feel the team made tremendous growth and improvement in this tournament. We played well, even in the losses.

“We’re shooting better as a team and gaining confidence in our offense. Our team defense is the best it has been all year, as is our rebounding. Those three things will win you games.”

In the Dec. 27 tourney opener against Trinity Christian, the Lady Whitefaces missed an open layup with 1:20 to play that would have tied the game before falling 50-43.

To open play Dec. 29, the Lady Herd was in a two-point game with 35 seconds to go in a 60-56 loss to Class 5A Lubbock Monterey.

After playing Friday’s first game of the day, the Lady Whitefaces were tabbed for the day’s finale. Righting the ship, they snapped a five-game skid with a 56-33 win over Andrews.

The Lady Herd closed the tournament Saturday by avenging a pair of losses earlier this season with a

“We played really well in the late game Friday,” Lintner said. “I was proud of the way they stayed focused and intense after waiting all day for their second game.

“The things we have been preaching all season are starting to happen on the court.”

Senior Lori Arias led the drive for the Lady White-

faces by notching teamhighs in points for the tournament run.

Against Trinity, she finished with 10 points before dropping 17 each against Monterey and Andrews.

Arias shared the team lead with 3 rebounds against Trinity before adding 3 boards, 3 assists and a game-high 6 steals to her stat line against Andrews.

CITY: FROM PAGE 1

nounced it would be adding a shift and hiring 600 more workers, the decision to annex the land for the reasons cited were a veritable no-brainer for city officials.

“Annexation is all part of growth,” Hanna said. “Plus, we need the housing. Our housing situation is weak. We have hundreds of people who commute

to work here. We need somewhere for them to live here.

“The town’s nice. The schools are fine.

We need places for people to live so they can work, live and play here.”

Hanna said the property will annexed into the city with a multi-family residential zoning.

He was quick to add that any future commercial development on the site would require rezoning those portions of the property for commercial and/or business use.
