The City of Howe, Texas is located in the fast-growing North Texas area less thanan hour from the DFW Metroplex, and is conveniently centered around majorinterstate US Highway 75 with a school district that touches Texas Highway 289.This prime location has Howe positioned for rapid growth as more and morefamilies look to move away from the “big city” and enjoy the benefits a thrivingsmaller community can offer. The quality schools, interstate frontage, andmoderate tax rate make Howe a prime location for new and relocating businesses.

SECONDS COUNT IN ANEMERGENCY! That's why the City ofHowe has instituted the CodeREDEmergency Notification System - anultra high-speed telephonecommunication service for emergencynotifications. This system allows us totelephone all or targeted areas in caseof an emergency situation that requiresimmediate action (such as a boil-waternotice, missing child or evacuationnotices). The system is capable ofdialing 60,000 phone numbers per hour.It then delivers a pre-recorded messagedescribing the situations to a liveperson or an answering machine in theaffected area possibly includinginstructions requiring action on the partof the recipient. Once the situation isremedied, another call will be placed tothe area signaling that the issue hasbeen addressed and that normalactivities can be resumed.

HISTORY OF HOWE

Founded in 1872, Howe was incorporated and became a “town” in 1884and originally came into existence as a result of a land purchaseagreement between Houston and Texas Central Railway and JabezHaning (pronounced Hey-ning). Howe at 873 feet, the highest point onthe rail line between Houston and the Red River, was initially namedSummit. The railroad representative who negotiated the land purchasewith Mr. Haning was F.M. Howe which led to renaming the city“Howe”.

As a major grain shipping city in the late 1800’s and the home of the RedRust-Proof Oats Company, the population stood at 450 in 1890 and hadchurches, hotels, doctors, barbers, druggists, and a gristmill operated by aFarmer’s Alliance Cooperative.

Newspapers published from the founding of the City until the presentinclude the Howe Herald that ran from 1890 and ceased operation around1910. In the 1930’ and 40’s, the city was served by The HoweMessenger. Former Texas Governor James Ferguson published TheHowe Chronicle along with his brother A.M. Ferguson during the late1930’s. The Howe Enterprise was established in 1963 and is enteringthe 54th year of publication. Today you can read the paper on-line athoweenterprise.com.

Howe became nationally known in 1940 when Mame Roberts became anational figure in beatification programs. As a result of Ms. Roberts’determination and hard work, her home town of Howe was named“Prettiest Little Town in Texas” by Reader’s Digest and Life Magazine.

Mame Roberts featured in the 1940 Rotarian Magazine.

1943 Howe High School graduate L.B. Kirby received a PurpleHeart for his heroism in World War II.

prevalent in Howe since the mid-to-late 1980s.

There are only 26 active Texashigh school football stadiums thatare older than Howe's BulldogStadium. Opening in 1935, nostadium in North Texas, otherthan the Cotton Bowl (1932) and

Fort Worth's Amon CarterStadium (1930), are older than

Bulldog Stadium.
