MUCH has been written about
-fl the Usage Indians, about
their being the wealthiest people
per capita on earth because OF
their income from oil, and about
their loose expenditure of funds
that come to them so continuous
ly and without any effort on their
own part.
Once in a while an Usage
stands out from the remainder OF
the tribe through his attempts to
invest his money properly and es-
tablish a business reputation.
Such is Henry T%allchief, pure-bred
cattle ranchman of the western
Osage-that portion that lies just
across the Arkansas river, east
from Ponca City, Okla.
Big Quarterly Payment
Recently the Osages received
another quarterly oil money pay
ment of $500 per capita, or q
total payment of near four mil
lion dollars. This happens four
times annually, and has been hap
pening for a number of years,
and their annual income has
amounted to over $4,000 per
capita from such a source. The
Osages hold their lands in COM
mon. 50 far as oil and other min
eral resources are concerned, and

equally among them.
Tallchief, an educated Usage OF
prominence, owns an extensive
ranch in the Fairfax community
Of the Usage and has a palatial
home there. 1t is nothing unusual
for him 20 entertain the other
members of the tribe or some con-
vention of other people at his
home, where a barbecue is the
usual entertainment. His herds of
pure-bred Shorthorn cattle +
known throughout the southwest
and have brought distinction both
in the sales and show rings.
Builds Up Herds
Tallchief became interested in
better cattle several years ago and
began building up his herds. He
imported pure-bred bulls for his
range cows, and later the range
portion of the herds was elm
mated entirely, and the herds be-
came p%ure-bred throughout. His
ranch home is known as Hill
Crest.

efforts of Tallchief and others,
has progressed rapidly during the
past few years in a pure-bred cat

Entertains Convention
When the breeders held their
annual convention recently in
Fairfax, Tallchief took them all
to his home out in the country
and was host to the entire con-
vention. There were two hundred
stockmen and townspeople pres
ent, together with a number from
out of town, including officials
and cattle experts from the Okla
homa Agricultural College at
saltwater. BY all the speakers
Tallchief was commended for his
splendid work in providing a per-
manent demonstration farm for
the Indian and other farmers.
j. B. Taylor, county farm agent
at Fairfax, presided IS toastmas-
ter and introduced President Tall
chief as "one of the biggest men
in the Usage tribe"
The Usage Indians have $25,-
100000 on deposit in the United
States treasury at Washington
and something like an additional
$4,000 900 in different banks
throughout the country, and they
have drawn down this year in in

a total of $253,34S.
