In speaking "f Oklahoma the Louisville Courier- j '■M 10 "•
[Journal has the following to say:
"A region of manna and wild honey-, where
the farm.-r has only to tickle the earth with a
straw to make it laugh a harvest; where the
soil, express-d for the most part in a rich,
brown loam, needs neither phosphates not irri-
gation. fertilized by nature and the ages and
watered by rivers and rivulets that milk the
mountains of their crystals and flow wealth;
where th" prls are almost as pretty as the
Kentucky trirl.s, the cattle even finer and fatter
than the cattle of the blue trrass; and where
constitutions and constitutional law grow upon
bushes and may be had for the plucking."
It sounds good to the av ras?e Oklahoma resident
