The advent of the Choctaw road into
into Roger Mills county has made great
difference in the population. During the
past few years every quarter or land
has been fled on. In reality the culu-
vation of the entire county only began
two years ago, but some remarkable
crops have been produced
There are many southern people in the
county. These came early. During the
past two years. however. many people
have come from the north and east to
secure homes.
