HE WANTS TO KNOW.
Citizen of Ohio Desires Information
About Oklahoma Farms, Prod-
ucts and Girls.
The editor of the State Journal
this week received the following
letter from a man in Ohio who
shows interest in Oklahoma and
asks for information. We have
no doubt from his letter that he
would make a good citizen, and
we hasten to comply with his re-
quest for information and have
mailed him one of the Santa Fe's
famous little books, "the Truth
about Oklahoma." The letter
follows;
Centreville, Ohio,
February 19, 1904.
Dear Sir:—I and my folks
are thinking about moving to
some new country where we can
buy a good improved farm at a
fair price. Land is very high
here. Can you raise cotton and
wheat there? How is it for corn
and oats? If you know of any
one there who wants to sell out
down there, please give them my
address.
There are seven in our family;
five boys and two girls. Now if
Oklahoma is a good country, we
are willing to work and make it
go down there. We live on a
small farm eight miles from
Dayton. Is there any timber
down there, or do you burn coal?
If you have time, I wish you
would please answer all these
questions, and give me all the
information you can abont farm-
ing, And, say, have you any
nice young girls down there?
We have lots of them here.
Hoping to hear from you soon,
I am
Yours Truly
Clarence Duffy.
Rural Route No. 7.
P. S.—We raise tobacco up
here; I don't suppose you can
raise it down there.—C. D.

his hands poised for catching a
ball. So we infer that Mr.
Duffy is a base ball enthusiast
as well as a good farmer, and
with this double accomplisment
we see no reason why he would
not make a success in Oklahoma.
Here's hoping that the gentle-
man and his relatives will be
pleased with what information
we have been able to send to
them in relation to the land of
the fair god.
