bright. The equipment. thanks to
the generosity Of Mr.. T. T. Wood
ruff, is exceptionally fine. and makes
possible work of a very high order.
As factor in education, manual
training is too well known to need
discussion. 1t is both cultural and
practical. and assists to great ex-
tent in solving the student equa-
tion." BY this is ant-helping
the student to discover his highest
and best powers and putting them
to practical use. making him a fac
tor for good both as a man and 4
citizen. What has been said Of
manual training is equally as true Of
cooking and sewing. affecting the
girls in like manner and to the same
degree As manual training does the
boys. Both departments are under
the supervision of trained specialists
and work of high order may be
expected.
Physical culture and athletics are
to receive proper attention at the
hands of "A competent instructor.
"A strong mind in a strong body"
was Locks maxim, and it holds
good today.
Music and drawing have been
placed under the supervision of a
competent and experienced super
visor and strong work may be ex-
pecte1 from this department.
The libraries and laboratories will
continue to receive additions adding
to their efficiency. In the matter of
grading, classification and promo
lion of students, their welfare and
merits will be the determining fac
tors. Promotions must be made
upon work well done alone. Ambi-
ton and sentiment have no place in
a matter of such vital Importance to
the future welfare of the student.
Too fast is worse by far than too
slow.

Health.

As healthy place to live Chick.
asha holds her own with any city
in the Southwest. There is moth
ing in the place to cause disease
and only the ills common TO all
humanity are known. The loca-
iion of the city preclndes disease,
and from the hills and high
plateaus around sweep an invigor
ating breeze at all times that car
ries off any poisonous germs that
may have the tenerity to linger
here. The country is well watered
by flowing streams into which any
excessive rainfall drains and thus
no stagnant bodies of water abound
to create miasma and sickness.
The city runs a $3.50, 900 water
plant and sewer system and the
water supply is of the best quality.

What Can Be Grown.

Without doubt the most impor
tant point with the general farmer
in selecting a new location is to Sc
cure one where soil, rainfall and
general climatic conditions are
such as will insure him a just
reward for his honest toll. This
condition can be best secured in a
country where crops are greatly
diversified, for here he will be able
to grow many different grains,
grasses, vegetables and fruits, and
should any part of the season be
such that any particular crop
should be a failure, or partial
failure. he has numerous others
to fall back upon. A country
where a farmer must put all of his
"eggs in one baskeI" is not a good
country for agricultural success.
There is no section in the Unit
ed States where a greater number
OF grains, grasses, vegetables and
fruits can be successfully and prof
itably raised than in this country
All of the following will not only
grow here, but will grow to such
advantage that they are profitable
feed and commercial crops. Corn,
cotton, alfalfa. millet, wheat, hay,
Kafir corn, maize, broom corn,
cane. oats, potatoes, onions, toma-
toes, sweet potatoes, cantiloupes,
watermelons, cucumbers, turnips,
carrots, parsnips, castor beans, and
all kinds of vegetables; peaches,
apricots, grapes, plums, cherries,
pears, apples, blackberries, rasp-
berries, dewberries, strawberries,
persimmons, both native or Japa.
nese; walnuts. pecans, peanuts,
and in fact almost every known
kind of grain, vegetable or fruit
will do we'll here.

Stock Raising.

In the early days of the Indian
Territory this country was known
as "The Stockman's S Paradise, =
and IL was not inoppropriately
named, fof all classes OF stock
seem to do unusually we'll here.
We might name in this list horses,
mules, cattle. hogs. sheep and An
CORA goats. Cattle were formerly
raised by the the thousands and
tens of thousand head upon the
native grasses. Since civilization
aud modern methods have demon
strated the value of improved
stock great progress has been
made in this line, until now can
be found many herds of fine Here
fords, Durhan-s, Polled Angns and
Jerseys, while the swine family are
represented by the Poland China,
Berkshire, Duroc, Jerseys and
other breeds, both fullblood and
crossed. The hog family do ex-
ceptionally we'll here, the breeders
producing fine iitters which are
easily and cheaply raised to market
conditions, and when any Of the
standard breeds are well cared for
and properly fattened they univer-
sally bring the top of the market
The cattle and dairying interests
here are also a source of excellent
profits. While the dairying bust
ness is but in its infancy, it has
been demonstrated beyond a doubt
that it is a fine money making
proposition. A fine market the
year around insures the producer
the best Of returns at all times.
The poultry business here is also
destined to become one of much
importance as all classes Of fowls
do remarkably we'll The late au-
tumns, mild winters and early
springs are all conducive to the
Matching aud raising of "broilers"
and "fryers' at a time when they
will bring the highest prices, as
we'll as to the producing conditions
of the layers.
