This newspaper comes from the collections of the Kansas Historical Society and was digitized with funds from the National Endowment for the Humanities as part of the National Digital Newspaper Program. The Western Kansas World was first issued on March 21, 1885. The World was published weekly on Saturdays and was the "Official County Paper of Trego County." With a unique and illustrative masthead that showcased the importance of homesteads, livestock, and agriculture on local livelihood, the World represented the character of an entire region. The World experienced several editorial changes before the turn of the century, but remains a current publication in WaKeeney.
