ICOLLECTING WESTERN BALI
LADS.
"sas Professor Wr:uld Perpetuate
Cowboy Rhymes and Songs
Known to Pioneers.
John A. Lennox, professor of Eng
Sliterature at the Agricultural and
echanical college of Texas, at Col
e Station, Texas, is making a col
ion of the native ballads and songs
the west for publication, and in doing
he invokes the aid of the press
Qoughout the west. He asks that
and ballads of the range .be sent
newspapers and forwarded by them
him. In a circular letter on the sub
Professor Lomax says:
"For several years I have been en
·dvoring to make a complete collec
Elbn of the native ballads and songs
' the west, particularly those known
At cowboy songs. It will hardly be pos
sible to secure such a collection except
trough the aid of the press for many
Of these ballads have never been in
Print, but, like the Masonic ritual, are
transmitted from one generation to an
-Other by 'word of mouth.' They deal
mainly with frontier episodes; the deeds
of desperadoes like Jesse James and
:Sam Bass; the life of the ranger in pur
-suit of fnidians or desperadoes; the ex
jieriences of the cowboy. going up the
trail; the trails of the Forty-niners, buf
falo hunters, stage-drivers, and freight
ers--in, short, they are attempts, often
-.rude ased sometime vulgar, to epitomize
-and -pafticularize the vast region west
-of the Mississippi river.
"Such early pioneer ballads do ex
ist. Already I have collected nearly
,a hundred. I wish to solicit your aid
in preserving from extinction this ex
pression of American literature. Event
ually it is expected that the ballads will
be in a book form and made available
for students of history or for those in
terested in the songs merely as an ex
pression of romantic western life.
"An editional request from you to
your readers for copies of frontier songs
will doubtless result in valuable mater
ial. I shall greatly appreciate your
help to this extent, and your future
favor in forwarding to me whatever
material may come into your hands.
"May I add that ballads, and the
like, which because of crudity, incom
pleteness, coarseness, or for any other
reason are unavailable for publication,
will be as interesting and as useful for
niy purposes as others of more merit.
'It is my desire to collect the songs and
ballads now or lately in actual existence
and in the precise form which they
have popularly assumed.
"Yours very respectfully,

Oklahoma's Fruitful 8ell.
Henry Beard of Shawnee, Kan., has
three of the champion cherry trees of
the state, or of most any state, for that
matter. From these three trees he has
this year sold fruit to the value of $40.
He says that 100 trees like this can
be grown on each acre of Oklahoma
soil, but if this was done there would
probnbly soon be a drop in the price of
cherries. Anyway, those folks who
said Oklahoma was no fruit country
wese never worse fooled in their lives.
JiOME TRADE BOOMER'
Value of a Progressive Union In
Boosting a Town.
REACHES OUT FOR BUSINESS
Hew a New Orleans Organization De.
velope Its Locoa Trade-Homemade
Articles Exploited by Advertising.
Exhibition by Manufacturers Held.
Do you wish to enlarge your home
town? Do you want to increase its
local trade? Are you anxious to see
a spirit of activity in the stores, espe
cially by your fellow citizens trading
at their home stores? Then you must
advertise. Patronize your local news
papers. Call the business men and
merchants together and form an asso
ciation to further yger interests.
New Orleans has struck the key
note in this line. What she did last
year and is still doing through the
work of a progressive union can in
some measure be done by any town.
At least its principle is a good one,
that of developing local trade and ac
tively reaching out to attract people
to her hospitable doors.
The aims of the New Orleans Pro
gressive union may be briefly summed
up in the statement that it stands for
expansion of trade territory, new in
dustries, high class immigration, bet
ter train and mail service, municipal
sanitation and health, exploitation of
the city's advantages, increased Pana
ma trade, steamship lines to South
America, lower freight rates, higher
education, home patronage of home in
dustries, more railroads, more capital
and more labor. Along these, lines the
organization has done much during the
year and expects to do even more in
the near future. The present adminis
tration is justly proud of the part that
the union has played in the develop
ment of the lakes to the gulf deep wa
terway project.
Under its present management the
Progressive union has after months of
labor finally succeeded in having the
various railroads leading into. New Or
leans grant ten day free stopovers
there on all continuous tickets issued
from various points in the east, west
and north. For years the business in
terests of New Orleans had tried to
brtig about the adoption of the free
stopovers, but failure marked every
effort until this year. In the final
fight every influence controlled by the
Progressive union was brought into
play, and after months of correspond
ence on the subject all railroad and
steamship lines operating in and out of
New Orleans acknowledged the claims
of the Crescent City and granted the
stopovers. It has been estimated that
the stopover privilege means some
thing like $1,300,000 to New Orleans
every year.
Through the work of the Progressive
union seven new mail trains have been
secured for New Orleans, and that city
has been made the headquarters of a
new railway mall division. This means
iucreased mail facilities for all mer
chants and business men and quicker
dispatch in the handling of all kinds
of advertising matter, literature and
other mall.
Under the auspices of the New Or
leans Progressive union the manufac
turers of that city held an exhibition
where nearly everything manufactured
in that city was shown in an exhibi
tion lasting an entire month.
The Progressive union, which was
at the head of this enterprise, is the
largest civic organization in the south
ern states and has during the last few
years been very active in, promoting
that city's welfare by advertising Its
resources and helping its merchants in
every way to fight its industrial and
commercial battles.
Characteristic of the press, which is
constantly taking steps to advance the
interests of the community it serves,
the New Orleans Daily States gives
manufacturers of that city an oppor
tunity to make their goods known at
very small expense. Three times a
week its columns are offered free to
exploit homemade articles, presenting
their good points and other reasons
why they should have the preference
of local buyers. In return for this the
publishers ask the manufacturers to
take a ten or twenty line ad. three
times a week.
The merchants of New Orleans also
used every effort to co-operate with
the Progressive union, each merchant,
after his own fashion, getting up
some special attraction or inducement
to help attract the crowds simultane
ously to and coincident with the big
manufacturing exhibition.
One very prominent music house ar
ranged an exhibition of high art music
al instruments through the different
manufacturers they represent and kept
"open house," giving free recitals day
and night. This feature in itself at
tracted very wide and favorable com
ment. Others arranged special exhib
its, and some made preparations to
show their plants in operation to their
visiting customers.
On the whole, there seems to be a
general spirit of awakening as well as
co-operation aimmong the commercial in
terests of that whole city looking to.
sward corralling as large a volumnne of
business as the south's metropolis is
usually accustomed to. Other of the
country's cities, towns and merchants
might well afford to emulate thlis
spirit.
In touching upon the home mann
facturers' exhibition. M. B. Trezevant,
secretary-mannager of the Progressive
union, said In part recently:
"We are teaching the people of New
Orleans to buy at home, to always give
homemade goods the preference and
TO SEND OUT PAPERS
Nashville Will Use the Local Press
to Advertise the City.
BIG PUBLICITY MOVEMENT.
Many Boards of Trade Are Employing
Newspaper Men as *eoretaries-How
to Boom Your Town by Co-operation
With the Newspaper Man.
Town booming by publicity bureau
methods is becoming more and more
popular because it pays. No town is
too small or, for that matter, too
large to be benefited by organized pub
lcity. A town that keeps its light
under a bushel is not going to be seen
from afar. One way to make its light
shine brightly is to rub the burners
every day with fresh advertising oil.
The city of Nashville. Tenn., is one
of the latest In the increasing list of
lively illaces that Intend to get livelier
still and are taking the best method
to bring about that consummation.
The Nashville board of trade has ap
propriated $50,000 to advertise the city.
This is how the money will be spent:
First.-A compilation of a directory
of the names of every northern man.
facturer whose goods are sold to Nash
ville retailers, joblbers or consumers.
Second.-The opening of correspond.
ence with each of these firms, the num
ber of which is estimated at 700, with
a view to securing either the removal
of the main plant to Nashville or the
establishment of a branch factory,
southern warehouse or southern sales
office in Nashville.
Third.-The sending daily of from 500
to 600 copies of each of the daily pa
pers to every reading room, library,
hotel and other public reading place in
the northeastern states, with at view
to familiarizing the regular and chance
visitors to these places with the city
of Nashville and creating favorable
impressions regarding the city, Its ad
vantages and business possibilities.
Fourth.-The extensive advertising of
the city in daily newspapers in the
northeast and New England states, in
the magazines of general and special
circulatiou and in the weekly papers,
with a view to attracting the attention
of the capitalist and the Industrial man
to the advantages offered by Nashville
as the location for factory or othoer
business.
In olommentiig on the course of Nash
ville and on town advertising in gener
al the Editor and Publisher, a New
York weekly, says editorially: "Many
boards of trade and chambers of com
merce throughout the country are em
ploying experienced newspaper men
as secretaries, and In many cases the
wisdom of this course has been shown.
Publicity counts every time, and with
a trained newspaper man in the har
ness many a sleepy board of trade
might be roused from its lethargy."
The local paper itself is one of the
best publicity bureaus a town can have,
and when it is supplemented by an offi
clal bureau of publicity nlu which the
editor Is a working factor its value
is enhanced. Tile lotal paper, carrying
advertisements of the home tmerchants
and other business men, Is a constant
advocate of home trade as opposedt
to the spending of money outside
of the town. Reporting, as it does,
all town improvements from time to
time and pointing out opportunitlies for
Investment and development, the home
paper is a free Information bureau
which is not always appreeilated prop
erly in its own community. But any
town nway greatly increase its valuable
publicity by organizing a bureau to co
operate with the newspapers In boom
ing the place.
Leaves.
Autumn leaves are fluttering down,
Red and yellow and buff and brown.
Caught by gales, they veer and fall,
Whirled in heaps against the wall.
Sad is this proof of earth's decay
Life Is a leaf that whirls away.
Saddest of leaves that eye e'er saw
Are check book leaves with naught to
draw.
