! 4. What supports this city7 How do all these
people make living2
will Tulsa keep on growing like it has in the
psst7'
Leading questions, these, everyone of them.
You and | asked them we insisted upon definite
answers, and so does every new arrival They
usually add, "'Ihis is our last move, and we must
know, we are making no mistake if we decide on
Tulsa as our permanent home.'
What, then supports this cityY The answer
is as many sided as the resources upon which
Tulsa is building.
An oil man might say, because one-sixth Of
the entire crude oil of the world is produced
within sixty miles of this city; that during the
past year Sl5OO0,OOO was paid out here for crude
oil; and that twenty-five years hence will not
see this field fully developed
The gas producer because Tulsa is the center
of gas field superior to the Eastern fields; and
that should continue active for forty years to
come
tains 10000 acres of coal capable of supporting
another PittsbuIg, even if no gas or oil existed
within thousand miles of Tulsa.
The farmer, that this is the greatest corn, cot.
ton and alfalfa soil and climate in the Southwest,
having six inches more rainfall annually than
Fort Worth, Oklahoma City or Kansas City
The jobber, because Tulsa's railroad facilities
give him lower freight rates from the Msss-
sippi River, and control of a territory richer than
surrounds any other city in Oklahoma.
The manufacturer that low cost of power raw
material, water railroads and a cash market
make Tulsa, with its hundred factories employ
ing eleven hundred people, the industrial city of
the Southwest.
No other city in the country has such resour-
ces, hence no other has had and is having, It's
substantial growth
Fifty five hundred men are EMPLOYED in
Tulsa s activities and are paid more than third
of million dollars in wages every thirty days.
Eight years ago but $50 were so employed.
In 1900 the post office receipts were $2,954;
last year shows $60,785.
Tulsa s population in 1900 was !, $3.50, last year
it was 1924, greater rate of increase than
shown by any other city or town in the entire
United States
And so it grows; each year shows 30 per cent
to 40 per cent increase in population over the
proceeding year, both in population and new
homes. What ten years hence will show cannot
be known at this time, but at 20 per cent onlv-a
most conservative figure-in 1920 Tulsa will
have population of 100000 people and this
means that property values will be twelve
times greater than today.
Now is the time to prepare for future profit
