Encourage immigration.

The2 Rock Island System is
making an effort TO encourage
immigration into Oklahoma, as
we'll as to interest capitalists and
business and professional men in
the territory.
In this undertaking it should
have the active cooperation OF
every resident, for this reason:
the more people there are in Ok
lahoma, the higher the price Of
land will be and the greater will
be the prosperity of every man
and woman in it.
The plan which will be followed
is to publish, in Eastern farm
journals, letters from farmers
and business men who have made
money by coming to Oklahoma
Letters should go into details to
the extent of stating how much
money the writer had when ne
arrived, what he did, what sue
cess he has met with and what he
thinks of that portion of Okla
homa in which he Is located. In
order to prepare such a letter. it
is not necessary that the writer
should possess special qualifica-
tons as a literary man. On the
contrary, plain straightforward
statement of facts is of much
greater value than florid des-
criptions of climatic and other
advantages.
Photographs, not of persons,
but of cattle, feed lots, growing
crops, harvesting operations, etc.
can be used to advantage.
Letters are desired not only
from farmers and farmers wives,
but also from merchants, school
teachers, clergymen-from every
one, in brief who has a story to
tell and knows how TO tell e..
