Oklahoma opportunity The two
words are synonymous. Oklahoma Is
land Of wonderful resources, all un-
developed; land OF virgin soil, un-
scored by the plow; of virgin forests,
untouched BY the ak; Of marvellous
mineral wealth unmined 1t is a land
Of many rivers, with broad fertile val
leys; land Of copious rainfall and
sunny hreezes, a land inhabited by
1900 doc happy contented people.
Oklahoma stretches across the plain
from the peaks which make the foot
hills Of the Rocky mountains to the
cypress swamps along Red river
which continue to the Mississippi No
state possesses a greater variety of soil
and climate, timber and prairie, Of
resources both agricultural and miner
al than does Oklahoma In general
the western part Of the state is broad
rolling prairie, with few hills or noun
tains. Eastern Oklahoma is often hilly
and In most places with heavy growth
of timber, chiefly oak, pine and hick-
orF
Ken large rivers cross the state, flow
irg southeastward All are tributary
I'd either the Arkansas or Red rivers,
which flow in to tne Mississippi
These rivers in addition, to the two
Just named, are Grand, Verdigris, Salt
Fork, Cimarron, North Canadian South
Canadian, Poteau ans Washita The
valley OF Grand river is as fertile as
the valley of the Susquehanna; the
valley Of the verdigris rivals the Mi
ami; the Cimarron valley excels the
wabash; the valley Of the North Ca
madam is as fertile as the valley Of
the Illinois, and the valley of the Wash
ita as productive as that Of the Ten
nessee.
Nor is the upland plains lacking in
fertility. The broad prairies in West
ern Oklahoma are capable Of produc-
ing great variety Of crops. The hilly
uplands in the eastern counties are
more productive than the Piedmont re-
gion in Pennsylvania or Virginia. Few
states in the union produce a greater
variety of crops. Cotton Is the great
staple in the southern part Of the
state. The fact that Oklahoma's cot
ton took first prize at the st. Louis
fair is a guarantee OF the excellence o.
the material. In the northwestern
/ counties wheat is the principal crop
Corn is produced abundantly in al
parts Of the state, Oklahoma is tbs
paradise Of the stockman. No finel
cattle, hogs, and horses can be pro
duced anywhere. Alfalfa Is raised II
practically every township. Fruits O
all kinds thrive throughout the state
Many farmers have made small for
tunes raising potatoes, MELONS o.
strawberries.
The mineral wealth OF this state i
very great. Oklahoma possesses de
posits which for all practical purposes
are inexhaustible, comprising nearI
twenty valuable minerals. There is %
way of reaching anything but approx
nations, but takins the best data a
command, the probable amount Of ceI
tain minerals in the state are as fol
lows:
Coal, billion tons.
Asphalt, 80 billion tons.

AMBASSADORS WIFE

PARIS, Jan. 22.-The court to-
day dismissed the case growing ou
of the attempted seizure of lace
curtains furnished for the residence
in the Avenue Du Bois De Bou
logne of Mrs. John D. Leishman
wife of the American ambassador
to Italy.
The judge ruled that it was sim.
ply a question of a disputed bill
and that the standing Of Mrs
Leishman should have protected hel
against seizure. Mrs. Leishman was
not in the city when a tradesman
sought to take from her home
goods which he valued at $500
and for which he had not been
paid. In the absence of Mrs.
Leishman the correctness of the
bill was questioned and the seizure
resulted.
