BLUE GRASS IN OKLAHOMA.
How Perry's Park Makes Kentucky
Look to Its Laurela.

PERRY, Ok, Oct. 5.-Kentucky blue
grass lawns can be grown in Oklahoma.
Time was when in most Oklahoma towns
this statement would have brought chal-
leuge Of ones yeracity, and even now it
may be received by many persons with
incredulous shakings Of the head. Okla
homans from Kansas were ever unwilling
to admit that despite the long summers,
the heat and excessive evaporation at
tendant upon strong winds, blue grass,
assisted by intelligent cultivation, could
not be encouraged to spread it's velvety
carpet III protected Places These Kan
sans had seen this "benediction of ma
sture' move westward In that state, slowly
gaining foothold where once only buffalo
grass had grown. The encroachment was
labor1ous, but the grass more than held it's
own in localities where it was given
proper encouragement.
w. T. Little, the kindly guardian and
foster father Of trees in Perry, is a for
mer kansan and believer in the possi-
btlittes Of blue grass in the sub-humid re-
g1ons OF the central West, and has given
practical demonstration of the sue
| cessful growth of blue grass in Oklahoma
Mr.. Little said: Il induced the board
of county commissioners after some per-
! suasion to authorize my sowing the park
| to blue grass last spring. There had
been complaint that from seven to ten
annual CIVILIZATIONS Of the loose soil were
too conducive to dust, and in affairs SO
| public some consideration must be shown
| to public opinion. AS matter of fact,
the plowing Of bare and weedless soil
reduces the dust blow by decreasing the
wind velocity at the Immediate surface,
the amount Of dust being less than If the
| ground were hard and smooth. To have
secured the best results, the grass should
not have been planted until the trees
were two years older, and after the sol
| had been saturated with air Stacked lime.

One Of the most remunerative Industries
In the territory Is, and has been since the
advent Of the white man, the raising of
cattle. The Indian territory steer Is re-

homes in all parts Of the country. The
generous growth OF prairie grass has
made this possible. Up to the present
and in some parts Of the Cherokee, Choc-
taw, and Chickasaw nations may still be
seen many a large ranch headquarters
where the cattle are given the range. But
little winter feeding Is done on ranch of
this kind, though 1t has been found by
some ranchmen to be more advantageous
to use limited supply of cotton seed In
conditioning those cattle which have been

sCUSTER CITY, Ok, Oct. 2.-The past
week has been a strenuous one as far as
Custer City has been concerned, and there
has been something doing every day Of
the week. For one thing, the annual old
settlers reunion, which this year was
called jubilee, was held, and this event
always attracts a great throng. People
from: fifty miles around make 1t a habit
to then come to the city, visit with their
old time friends, and have general good
time. 1t also gives them an opportunity
to show what their respective sections are
doing in the way of agricultural products,
and the display this year was one of un-
usual magnitlcence. - ., <, -. .- =
TO further add to the excitement and
ustle OF the week a party Of excursion
lists numbering $50 arrived. They hailed
from Iowa., Nebraska, Kansas, and Mis-
souri,, and were royalty entertained by
th&citizens Of this city and the visiting
Oklahomans who were here at the old
settlers jubilee AS an incident of their
visit the excursionists bought $40 town
with the city and so confident did they
feel Of its future. Many of the pur-
| chasers have already made arrangements
to build and will make this city their
| home. In addition to the large purchases

vicinity. AS said before, there was a
magnificent display Of the agricultural
products of the country, and it proved ar
