“WHAT MM3 U8

There are 3549 automobiles in Okla-
homa and as given in for taxation their
combined value is f2G4riS45
In reality the amount of money
spent for the sutomobiies first cut j
wo over a million dollars making over
three and a half million dolluis sent out
of the state to keep up factories in the
East
There are 27067 pianos costing $3-
!kbt133 and 402 organ and other musi
cut instruments costing $614 733
These instruments when new coat
probably five and a half million dollars
all of which was sent out of the state
to midd'e states and eastern manufac-
turer The value given on agricultural tools
implements carriages and other vehi-
cles amounts lo$ll9l7E22
Estimating that one tenth of this
mount was manufactured in Oklahoma
the balance about $ It) 990 (XtO was
sent out of the state
The amount turned in fur furniture
watcher clocks and jewelry was $17-
411799 Of this amount at least $15OuO'Xin
was sent out of the state
From the sbowirg her recited alone
a very conservative estimate—
Thirty-four million nine hundred
thousand dollar ha been sent out of
tne state to enrich and build up the fac
lories of other states
Add to this amount the money sent
east for dry goods cli’hmg and sh-wi
bought and on had the past year urd
t wuuid probabiy jump lo near—
Seventy-five Million Del-

BROOM CORN
Ninety Percent of Entire
Crop Grown in this State
—Dozen Factories in Op-
eration— the Planting Per
iod is from May 1st to
June 15th
It sumeone should auk the averaga
hourewifein Paducah Kukuin or any
other-ly picul American city from
wheie tlit broom with which she doe
her daily swia5piiig cant ah-1 would
ioog puzzled and say situ di-iu't know
The li utii is that at ore tune it prob-
ably was a gruaing plunt somewhere
in tne state of Oklahoma fur the state
supplies 93 percent of the brootneurn
consumed annually in tile entire wotld
Expert estimate the y iclj for 1912
at 40U3t) tons On an aveiage it re-
quire five sere to produce a ton thus
proving that 2UU6U0 acres must have
been planted to this crop last year The
yield for 1612 was the re cold fur this
state and since the crop first wa plant
ed in Oklahoma In fact the yield was
so great that il nearly swamped the
market
The quality of Oklahoma grown
broom turn ranks high and the quali-
ty first An acre of land in Oklahoma
it is said will produce more pounds of
broom corn than an equjil ar-a in any
other slate
The heaviest yield made in the slate
iesaid to bclCMj pounds to a single
acre This was made last y ear near
Lindsay
While Oklahoma grows the world's
supply of broom rum it manufactur-
er only a small percentage of the
sweeping brooms used over the world
It exports and sell to domestic manu-
facturers the bulk of the crop using
only a small percentage to supply the
demand at home Nevertheless Okla-
homa has its share of factories ergng
ed iu the matting of brooms for house-
hold use The largest factory In the
state it is (aid u located in Oklahoma
