Is said to be an eloquent speaker. j
Now what of the futuie? We have
here the richest soil in the mate of
Oklahoma a soil that will produce in
abundance 'cotton corn wheat oats
alfalfa and hroomcorn a soil that will
make the mm rich who intelligently
cultivates p. If you could place a fram-
i er on every eighty acres in Grady coun-
ty who will till the ground as carefully
as farmers do in Michigan lll.iois and
Ohio and who will grow cotton like
they do In Mississippi you most as-
suredly will possess a "I-and of Prom-
ise in the Outer of Commerce."
Again and because of this fertile soil
and the variety and profusion of plant
life Grady county is a natural center
for the raising of live stock. The fact
that. Oklahoma farmers and feeders
furnish three-fourths of the hogs I
slaughtered at the Fort Worth pack-
ing plants and the further fact that
Grady county ranks first In the ship-
ment of live stock should make every
man in this community proud of his
heritage. It should make everyone try
to beat his last year's record try to es-
tablish some new record for Chickasha
1 and' Grady county.
With less than one-third of this
' country under cultivation think of the
increase In population and wealth

or 160 acres! And this is not a. dream.
If we conhl tell the good people of the
country about our resources this situ-
ation would soon be an accomplished
fact. The man who says "It can't be
done" would be pushed aside by"the
man who is doing it."
Wo want manufacturers you say;
most assuredly and with all of our
soil under cultivation furnishing an
abundance of raw. material there will
be no Question about our getting the
manufacturer Successful manufac-
turing in these days hinges upon cer-
tain well recognized factors.
Location is the dominant factor in
determining the future of any indus
trial enterprise. For upon location da-
pends fuel raw material labor and dis-
tribution. When all these are com-
bined to the best possible advantage
there is the location for the manufac-
turer and when this country around
about us is developed Chickasha will
have her full quota of successful man
ufacturing plants.
A picturesque little city a mild
healthful climate good schools and
churches an attractive place for resi-
dence and a hospitable people these
are the inviting signs these make us
believe that we have God's country for
our heritage.
