FROM THE GORMAN MAYOR
Hot and cold, I think I’m ready for some consistency. But that will never happen in Texas. What can happen though is that everyone can mow their weeds and any grass that is too high. I drove around town over the weekend, and we are looking pretty shaggy. It’s been nice this winter not having to worry about mowing, but that time is over. Please take the initiative and start cleaning up.

Clues To Spider Rock Found in Eastland County
Third Part Series Remember Dave Arnold showed up with a Sheepskin Treasure Map at Clyde, Texas, in 1902, finding a stone carved map, as well as copper plates, and daggers, but no treasure. He then went 62 miles to the NW up near the Forks of the Double Mountain and Salt Fork of the Brazos and found a second carved rock, as well as a copper plate, a copper dagger, a copper key, 42 gold buttons, some epauletts, a silver cross, and a sword, but again no treasure. There was a Mexican Sheepherder on the river that helped interpret the stone map and scribbled his directions about how to find the treasure on a brown paper sack which he gave to another Anglo on the river named Will Stuart. A third so-called Spider Rock Map was found in 1909 NE of Rotan near where Gyp Creek runs into the Double Mountain Fork of the Brazos. Supposedly, all of these artifacts and the stone maps were placed in Dr. C. L. Terrell's drugstore safe in Haskell and were destroyed in a fired in May of 1909. The Rotan Rock was discovered after the fire so survived.

County Agent’s Corner
It’s nice as I drive around the county to finally see some green plants out there, but as they say, “every coin has 2 sides”. On closer inspection, a lot of those green plants are “weeds”. Keeping with the “2 sides” saying, not everything about weeds is totally bad. If you are running livestock, many of those weeds are a welcome source of protein and animals, including wildlife, are making good use of lots of them. Beekeepers reap the benefits of weeds early blooms as bees are really getting busy now going from 1 to another turning pollen into honey. The wildflowers Texans love are mostly what some could argue are weeds. By definition a weed is “any plant out of place”, so if it is something besides what you intend to grow, it is a weed. Right now, there are a lot of weeds popping up in everyone’s lawns, flowerbeds, and gardens and the calls are coming in fast and furious.

Public Data For Property Owners in Eastland County
We’ve all advised in advance of Monday, April 3, 2023-- for in-person tax value discussions and that’s just around the corner, so it is obviously time for us to consider being prepared-- because we can be assured at the Tax Office and a board will be ready to “listen” to our opinion of values and then announce their own opinions of what they “think” of “the values” based on their own “walk around” valuations, or what they’ve been told.
