Many people in Tuls* *ro from
Illinois. They kno'v of 'lie litt'e city
of Canton, not far from Chicago, that
drew into tha greatest manufacturing
poYit on the in * p of that state for itB
inches.
Anions the different thipps made
there are farm implemsnts and cigars.
Yes. cigDt’3, and great quantities of
them. These people from Illinois
j know all about Canton cigars.
I One day, u few years ago, Canton
people were smoking cigars made in
I Chicago, New York and in Pennsyl-
vania—eh icily in the sweatshops of
that district. On this memorable day.
some fellow, probably the si cretary of
the Commercial clun.for the president,
or the leading banker—it doesn’t
matter who—hit upon the happy piun
of establishing Canton as the cigar
mskirg city of Ulinoir.
lie asked the commercial club mem-
bars to put aside their favorite brand
of cigars and smoke one made by a
little factory at that time employing
very few people, lie also asked hie
friend to ask his friend to Btnoke
Canton made cigars, and as a result,
there was an endl-ss chain siarted,

and today, theie are n ore that 300
cigar makers imp oyed in Cauioo.
Tulsa is reaching out Into ihe com
mercial world and grasp ng after
factories. If the city will embody in
to its very life, the tirst idea of town
building, it wiH look to the patronage
of these institutions now here, and
eternally boost for them.
A factory that wllhetnploy ahiuidr, d
men will cost the citizens a hundred
thousand dollars, coo', hard cast),
raked and scraped from the pockets of
men who probably neid it to foster
tluir own business.
The Commercial club and the Manu-
facturers association would have to
gather this money from various spots,
it’s hard to vet.
Why not make Tulsa the ’■Pitts-
burg" of the southwest, by boosting
Tulsa goods, especially cigars?
Isn't, this a proposition worth con-
sidering? Tulsa events a hundred
men and their families to move hero
at once; is iffering and paying big
money to get factories to employ
them: here’s one knocking at your
door!
Is the la’eh string hanging out?

Result of Joe Miller In Raising
Indian Maize Interesting
Stock Growers
C. C. French, traveling representa-
tive of the Ft. Worth Stock Yards Co.,
is in the city in the interest of that
livestock marxet and is telling wonder-
ful things about tbe demand for hogs
from Oklahoma and Indian Territory
among the packers of his city.
“Last Monday,’’ said Mr. French to
the Democrat this morning, “ihere
were 950 head of hogs in the Ft. Worth
market, all coming from Indian Ter-
ritory and Oklahoma, with the excep-
tion of one ear. Tn« market, there can
use 5,000 bead of liogs daily, audit
roust be supplied from the two terri-
tories and Texas, The uone Star
state had a corn failure ihere a few
years ago and the farmers disposed of
their slock, const quently, the terri-
tories are looktd to to supply the
demand. Thin is practically opening
a new market to the farmers of this
country.’’
Mr. French carries in his grip some
samples of “squaw corn” said to be the
original Indian maize, which bese-
emed at Joe Miller's 101 ranch. He is
taking it to his home, in order to show
up its merits as a feeding matt rial for
stock.
“This grew on land that furnished
the first load of wheat this yea
shipped to Kansas City,” explained Mr.
French,” andmaluiedin three months
after planting. Each grain planted
produced several stalks and each stalk
grew two ears.
“Tbe crop made 40 bushels to the
acre and the land wilt be planted in
wheat this fall. Mr. Miller turned 490
head of dattle into the fle d to fatti it,
and by feeding in the Held, the land is
not exhausted.
“Many farmers m Oklahoma are in-
terested iu the experiments made by
Mr. Miller and will assist li m. The
quickness of the crop, the splendid
quality of the feed and the system em-
ployed makes it of great value to the
farmer ana stock miser. ’
