In an effort to address the rising population of stray and roaming animals, the City of Liberal has adopted new animal control ordinances requiring the annual registration of cats and dogs beginning January 2025.

Animal registration, a common practice for municipal governments, was identified as a solution following two public surveys regarding Liberal’s stray and roaming pet population.

The weather outside may have been unseasonably cooler than usual this past week, but despite this, spring is in full swing with summer less than two months away.
As spring progresses into summer and later into fall, people can be seen outside doing a variety of activities, and for the last decade on Saturday mornings from May through September, one of the local activities people can be found doing is visiting the Liberal Farmer’s Market.
The first edition of this year’s farmer’s market will take place Saturday, May 4, and Market Manager Debra Huddleston said the market got some help this year in the form of a grant from K-State Research and Extension to hire an assistant for her.
The National Day of Prayer tradition predates the founding of America, evidenced by the Continental Congress’ proclamation in 1775 setting aside a day of prayer.
In 1952, Congress established an annual day of prayer. In 1988, that law was amended, designating NDP as the first Thursday in May.
Through seven decades, the efforts of the NDP Task Force have mobilized to observe the day in all 50 states and U.S. territories and to intercede for the nation.
