Notes from Oklahoma 
The illness of a daughter made it nec¬ 
essary that we spend two weeks in Tulsa 
County the latter part of January. This 
is the richest county in Oklahoma, owiug 
to the great number of heavy producing 
oil wells. The city of Tulsa is second in 
size and, no doubt, first in progress and 
rapid growth, in the State. Practically 
every road in the county is paved, and it 
certainly is pleasant traveling over such 
smooth, well-kept highways. Leaving 
Muskogee, which is a rather promising 
small city 40 miles west of our home 
town, we traveled the remainder of the 
way in one of those high-class overland 
auto busses. These are the acme of per¬ 
fection as regards overland travel. Prac¬ 
tically no stops, luxuriantly furnished 
and smooth going. The distance seemed 
too short for one deeply interested in 
farm homes, nature of the different soils, 
varying farm c< nditions, growth and va¬ 
riety of timbers, crops grown in different 
localities, etc., as I always am. The 
more I see of our great State the more I 
am convinced that ours is a good State 
to live in. However, farm lands are ad¬ 
vancing slowly in price, and many, many 
of our farmers and tenants living under 
very unfavorable conditions. Many of 
our home-owning farmers are also living

sadly lacking, especially here in the east! 
ern part of the State. 
Along the way we passed many pecan 
groves where many tuns of fine pecans are 
produced every year. Also extensive 
farms where potatoes are the main crop; 
then hundreds of acres where cotton is 
the main crop, much Indian corn, and 
some blooded stock farms. Tulsa County 
was, before statehood, a part of the Creek 
.Nation, hence the Indian population are 
ot Creek descent, while those of our coun¬ 
tv are Cherokees. The full-blood popu¬ 
lation is fast decreasing, and the younger 
Indian generation prefer inter-marriage 
with the whites, thus still further reduc¬ 
ing their tribes. 
Most of the lands in Oklahoma are now 
owned by white people; however, quite a 
few Indians still own and operate their 
farm lands. But most of the full-blood 
people prefer to live far back from public 
places, along the creeks, or in the deep 
woods. . Here they fish, mint and gather 
\vild onions, greens, etc. The women and 
gills do roost of the work,, while the men 
delight in hunting and fishing. Already 
the Indian women arc peddling wild 
onions. They gather them when only a 
few inches high, clean, wash and tie them 
m neat bunches and sell fiom house to 
house. These find ready sale early in 
the Spring, and some families earn hand¬ 
some sums of money in this way. 
Later on, when huckleberries are ripe, 
the Indian women, also many white wom- 
en, go to the woods with many buckets 
and work all day long gathering these for 
sale. Huckleberries always find a ready 
sale at good prices. Many years ago there 
was an abundance of wild blackberries of 
fine quality. Now, however, the rapid 
settling up of the country has destroyed 
most of the wild berries, and the farm 
folk must depend on setting their own 
berry patches. 
Just now the grass is showing up green 
along the roadside and cattle find ideas 
ant pastime nibbling the tender bites. We 
have had only two snows; the fiist fell on 
Thanksgiving, ,he other early in Febru¬ 
ary, atid at this writing (Fob. 25) there 
is every harbinger of Spring wiih us.

but usually the middle of March finds the
