State EXHIBITS
COMING ID Tulsa
ARKANSAS AND KAN
sAS LEGISLATURES MAKE
APPROPRIATIONS.
Three States ARE IN Line
VIII send Special Train Loads of EN-
hibits TO Dry Farming Congress
in October.

When the local headquarters of the
International Dry Farming Congress
received word yesterday that three
states had appropriated several thous-
and dollars each for exhibits at the
forthcoming soils products exposition
in Tulsa, there was genuine satsfac-
ton shown, 1t was news in keeping
with the assurances that have been
given all along with reference to the
manner in which surrounding states
we're going to help make the Tulsa
exposition the biggest thing of the
kind the world has ever known.
The Arkansas legislature last Sat
urday passed the bill appropriating
$4,000 for the sending of state ex-
hibit to the dry farming congress and
soil products exposition. The bill
went to the governor Immediately af-
ter its passage and was at once sign
ed.
A similar bill. but providing for
only $4,000 passed both houses of the
Missouri legislature yesterday and
was signed by Governor Major This
sum will be used i'm collecting the
cream of the farm exhibits at the
Missouri state fair at Sedalia early
in October and sending them to Tul-
sa. At Topeka yesterday the Kansas
legislature passed a BILL appropriat-
ing $4,000 for the same purpose. 1t
will undoubtedly receive the apprO-
val Of the governor when presented
to him.
Each Of these shree states will
send a special train to the farm ex-
position at Tulsa and hundreds Of
farmers will come also. The various
exhibits viii bc under the supervision
Of the boards Of agriculture Of the
respective states.
The bill appropriatlng $4,000 for
a kaffir corn palace at the Tulsa
show. to house the state agricultural
exhibit. will be introduced in the Ok
lahoma legislature Wednesday and
seems sure Of passage.
