After staying nearly a year in
Oklahoma, | now try to write you
a few items about this part of the
world.
We are very much pleased with
the country. / think the prairie
is prettier than the hills of Ten.
nessee; but | miss the streams OF
running water and the trees a
great deal.
We have been having a great
deal of rain lately, and on the &c
and 81 Of March we had a cold
wave which froze the wheat and
oats off to the ground and killed
most of the plumb and peach
crop. but now wheat and oats are
looking nicely again.
Farmers are beginning to plant
corn.
Our little town is always the
scene of business. 1t contains s
churches, two banks, two public
schools and the territorial univer-
sity. 1t has about three thous.
and inhabitants, and the territori-
al asylum is situated here; also a
roller mill.
| attend the East side public
school, which is two miles from
our home. We have nine teach.
ers, and our school building is
three stories high and contains
eight rooms. We will only have
seven more weeks of school.
There are about $50 pupils en-.
rolled.
The railroad runs in half a mile
of our place, and the country be.
ing so level it is no uucomOn
sight to see four trains at one
time on the road.
We are only fifty miles from
Guthrie, the capitol of the terri
tory.
We have good view of Noble,
a small town ten miles south of
Norman, also of Moore, five miles
north of Norman.
The health of this place is very
good, in fact our town is noted
for its healthfulness.
Garden truck is doing very
nicely, if the cold spell did put
them back some.
