They are shipping car-loads and even train loads of it away, and this is remark able when you consider that It is onlv a 2-year-old industry for that part the country. "The prettiest little town I saw was Oklahoma City, O. T.." said Captain Finch. "Sixteen years ago it was only a prairie land. Now It has about 15,000 population, asphalt streets good hotels nnd fine business and residential struc tures. And, by the way, the talk about the wild and wooly West is sadly out of place in most W'estern communities now, for there is law and order and conveniences such as we have In the older towns In, the East."
