Editor of THE STAR
AS my other letter escaped the waste
basket / will keep my promise, and
write again, will try and tell you more
about the country. Have been in four
different directions from Deer Creek,
attended the Blackwell, Kay county,
poultry show. There were about 600
chickens there and some nice ones too,
but what took my eye was four English
pheasants. They were beauties. Black
well is gaod town of about 5000 popu-
lation, good brick blocks and large
schools OF thirteen rooms and a large
Baptist college. Blackwell is IA miles
east OF Deer Creek on the Santa Fe
r. r. This branch of the Santa Fe
runs from Hutchison, Kans., to Black
well, Okla. Deer Creek has two elevat-
ors and wheat has been coming in to
town pretty fast since have been here,
as it has been on the rise. They are
shipping a good many hogs and cattle
from here to Kansas City. Hogs are
worth $4.25 per hundred live weight,
eggs 20 cents dozen, butter IL cents ID.
The COWS are running on green wheat
now and have been all winter. We had
about 10 hours Of rain on the Goth Of
last month, which improved the wheat
great deal.
In all the country I have been over
in Oklahoma the people have good farm
houses, newly painted and all look pros
porous. On the 26 OF January the

hours, but it was quite warm by noon.
