TULSA Looks like A

PRESIDENT OF CONNECTICUT
STATE AGRICULTURAL BOARD
PLEASED WITH CITY.

with all her oil and gas gone,
Tulsa would still have better chance
Of becoming the real metropolis of the
state of Oklahoma than either Mus

Wiley Hedgewick, president of the
state board of agriculture of the state
of Connecticut who was In Tulsa
yesterday between trains, on his way
to the Pacific coast, with his wife and
three daughters.
Mr.. Hedgewick has made short vis-
its at Oklahoma City and Muskogee
the past week, on business, and he did
not intend to come to Tulsa, but he
heard so much about this city in the
other places he visited that he decid-
ed to spend few hours here.
Following an automobile ride about
the city with his family Mr.. Hedge
wick uttered the foregoing statement,
saying at the same time that he be-
lieved Tulsa was the best located city
in the state from an agricultural
standpoint.
From reports / have received and
things l have observed" he said II
believe that Tulsa does not begin to
appreciate the fact that she is sur
rounded by some of the best unde-

than she is at the present time. The
cleanliness, metropolitan spirit. splen-
did citizenship and courteous business
men you have here all tend to make
this place one long to be remembered
by the tourist. Yet, you are making
no attempt to bring eastern people
here, and especially eastern farmers"
Mr.. Hedgewick Is on his way to
the coast for short vacation. He
will leave his family there and may
return to Connecticut by the way of
Tulsa. He intimated that he might
possibly make some investments here,
