"The territory possesses the happy medium In US kindly climate and the ability to bring forth the products that are native to the north, east, south and west of the United States. Cotton, the staple of ths south, la a leading product. Tobacco Is raised with as much success as In Ken tuoy and? Tennessee. Wheat and corn, the grain of the north and western states, arei raised more extensively than any other commodity. The wheat crop of Oklahoma for 1903 aggregated 80,000,000 bushels. The corn crop for the same year exceeded 66, 000,000 bushels. Potatoes, fruits and all manner of grasses, vegetables and other grains yield prollflcally. The raising of live stock Is one of the moat profitable pursuits. The pasturage Is rich In verdant grasses and wholesome water, while the mild, dry winters make it possible to turn the cattle into the grow ing wheat fields. Horses, mules, Angora goats, sheep and hogs are raised as cheaply as In any other atato in the union. ' There la much walnut and oak, hickory, pine, and the lumber production runs Into millions of feet annually. The taxable valuation of the territorial books show mora than 000,000 taxable and 1T6.000.000 of real wealth.
