X if an I r -. . I ,.Q: 31- 77 r f Q Skit SSX lu-fs. i 'if-I Hundreds of millions of years ago the region that is now Ohio was marked out by nature to become a rich and populous state. Beneath the earth's surface tremendous natural forces formed seams of coal, pockets of petroleum, natural gas, and beds of clay and limestone: all of which were destined to make this region a great manufacturing center. A huge ice glacier which had extended over the North Eastern part of the state left deep fertile soil to make Ohio a prosperous farming region. To the north of this region is Lake Erie, with connecting links to the Atlantic seaboard. To the northwest are the iron deposits of Lake Superior: to the South is the Ohio River leading to the Mississippi and the Gulf of Mexico. Through these developments Ohio has become one of the leading indus- trial states in the nation. Even though it ranks 34th in size, it is fifth among the states in population. Ohio was the first state carved out of the Old Northwest Territory. Seven Presidents rose from the state of Ohio. They were Ulysses S. Grant, Ruther- ford B. Hayes, Iames A. Garfield, Benjamin Harrison, William McKinley, William Howard Taft, and Warren G. Harding. In 1803 Ohio was admitted to the Union on February 19, as the 17th-state. The first capital was Chillicothe, and the first governor Edward Tiffin. 1804 marked the first smelting furnace in Ohio, established near the site of Youngs- town. In 1810 the state capital moved to Zanesville: in 1812 it returned to Chillicothe, and that same year moved and made its permanent residence in Columbus. N r l . li S M 1 A . . 4' - .
