THE FARMER AND
HOME INDUSTRIES

There is net class of citizens I'm
Oklahoma that would be benefited
as much by the development OF ne
mineral resources Of the state ns
would the farmer Heretofore the
farmer in Oaklhoma hss been at the
double disadvantage of being Obliged
to send hi~ produce oOl 0T the state
while he "a. to buy bic manufac-
tured articles abroad ana snip them
in. This of course means that he
has received low price for his crops
assd has paid a high price for what
he has. bought, for IN addition 70 the
manufacturer profit and a dealers
profit he has always paid excessive
freight rates.
All this will be changed when Ok
lahoma begiiss to manufacture her
home products When the vast de
deposits cf gypsum. salt, clay, as
phalt. lime. Portland cement rock,
glass sand. ami other valuable de-
posits are beiig worked up into arti
Giles which win be sold to the far.
iner at q much less price than he is
now paying, the army of workmen
win create demand for all sorts OF
FARM orchard and garden products
and create a home market.
There are thousands Of farmers
i'm Oklahoma today who know by y
lperience that there is more money In
such crops as fruits berries, truck
lama vegetables. than in wheat or cot
tor provided only there is a home
market These farmers are today
raising corn. wheat and cotton not
because they prefer 20, but because
they must raise crops that can be eX
iported They will welcome any plan
that will provide q home market fol
I Oklahoma products.
II there is any plan more feasible
FOR developing aiihOme market than
IN developing home industries IL has
not yet been founsl There is no rea
son why We should continue to send
our money 10 other states for ths
things we might Just as well MAKE
at home
I II the legislature is awake to the
conditions confronting the people o
Oklahoma Il viii net fail to provide

ment of the resources of the state.
