main line Frisco northeast branches
al Alton with good connections for
81. Louis and the east and Kansas
City, Chicago and points on the
Great Lakes. This line taps the
great lead and zinc fields in the
Miami section and traverses rich

inent OF the wonderful natural re-
sources of the trade territory Of this
city and every train into the local
stations brings shoppers, eager To
take advantage OF the Tulsa market
for the necessities and luxuries OF
Afe. II Is probably true that ho
SECTION OF the United States is now
npre prosperous than that within
N0-mlle radius of Tulsa, and the
railroad facilities OF this section
make this prosperity possible.
Because of favorable climatic
conditions. Tulsa's trade territory
has the greatest diversity OF crops
of any section OF the United States.
The wheat OF Minnesota and the Da-
kotes will grow side by side with the
cotton OF Texas and Mississippi. The
-. corn OF Illinois and Missouri VIII
grow with the cantaloupes OF Colo
tado. Practically any OF the fruits,
berries or vegetables Except the

mere Is no better place in the ma
