LARGE ACREAGE YlELDs.
Government OniciaIs Credit Colorado with
eB Bushels of Wheat Fer Acre.

| Government OniciMIs Credit Colorado with
eB Bushels of Wheat Fer Acre.
The estimate of 5OOO.000 bushels of
wheat in Colorado, which Is confirmed
by the most reliable authorizes In the
state, In its turn confirms other esti-
mates OF great value State Engineer
Field In advance OF the crop report
estimated from the reports made Dy
the water commissioners of his once
that one-tenth of the entire cultivated
area was sown to wheat. The limited
states department of agriculture accords
to Colorado an average yield In wncat
of twenty-five bushels to the acre. Inc
Republican estimates the area under
cultivation at approximately 2,WU,OU
acres. One-tenth of 2,0OO.0OO is 2oO,-
900 which multiplied by %. that figure
standing for the average bushels per
acre. gives a product of 100000. This
appears to be small per cent. OF acre
age for crop so profitable. in view of
the vast area available and Offering the
opportunities of tillage. and 1t suggests
that ii would be an easy matter TO
double both this acreage and product
in 1898. But II also suggests that the
remainder of the land was divided
among crops that were essential ana
some of them having equal utility. as,
for instance. that of alfalfa. which ad-
ded its millions to live stock values.
The liberal average stated jnstifies In
a large measure and perhaps wholly
so the extremely high average claimed
by the farmers of Weld county. San
Luis valley and western Colorado.
Weld insists on 81 bushels. while Lar
inner claims 30 bushels OF wheat to the
acre as Its average; San Luis valley
claims 30 bushels without any excep-
tions, while in Montrose and Delta
counties 30 bushels Is named as the
minimum. while a higher figure is
claimed for an average. Montezuna
county has raised entire fields Of wheat
at 40 to so bushels and will not be CON
tent with a less average than 30 bush
els wheat to the acre. Such high
crops have also been raised in all the
other sections named and some crops
in the San Louis valley have exceeded
those figures There can be little doubt
that with special efforts in that di-
rection ColoradOs average will soon
reach 30 bushels or more. Accumulat-
ing moisture and vegetable fertiliza-
tion from alfalfa are said to be the
prime causes for this increase.-Denver

LITTLE MONEY in PEACHES.
Western Slope Fruit Men disappointed
with Last Years Results.

Western slope Fruit Men Disappointed
with Last Years Results.
"Many OF those who made early
shipments of peaches last spring did
not make cent on them" said G. l..
Sawyer of Fruita. ''SOme actually
lost, while n few came out ahead. When
1t came to shipping the later peaches
there was not much Improvement.
Those who did make any money on
their fruit did not get enough to pay
them for the trouble of picking. The
majority of the peaches shipped from
our part of the state went to Omaha
and Kansas City. Some went as far
east as Cincinnati and as far north
as St Paul and Minneapolis. A num-
ber OF those down our way sent whole
car loads of peaches to those cities. 1
know of several instances where the
commission men to whom they were
sent would telegraph back as soon as
the car reached its destination. stat
ing that the peaches were In bad
shape. OF course the shipper had no
alternative but to wire back to accept
the car and get what he could for the
contents. After the commission men
had deducted their commission. there
was very little, If anything, left for
the shipper. In several instances they
were out actual cash.
Now. we do not know positively
whether the peaches reported to be In
bad condition We're as bad as repre-
sented. They might have been per-
fectly sound for all we know, and the
commission men, realizing that we
We're too far away to ascertain just
what the true condition was. might
have trumped up that story. to make
more money. But in the future we do
not intend to take any chances. When
1t comes time to ship peaches we pro-
pose to send n man to the large cities
where we will ship. These men will
look after the fruit and keep an eye
on the commission men. II our rep
resentatives report the peaches in bad
condition. then we will know 1t is
true. Should the commission men tell
us that. our man in that city will in
vestigate the matter BY so doing we
hope to realize more In the future
than we have In the past.'-Denver

the best red clover or other hay, It ap-
pears now to be the foundation OF ev-
ery other agricultural success in Colo
RADIO. This high valuation Of Its uses
is sustained by single fact In the agri-
cultural history of Colorado. In 1880
Colorado's average for wheat, officially
reported. was twenty-five bushels per
acre. In many parts of the state the
average is far above that figure. For
Weld county 1t is now stated mt twen-
ty-seven bushels, and the authorities
there believe that II should be rated
mt thirty bushels. In 1880 the average
there was not above That Of the state.
The same increases prevail In San Luis
valley. where an average Of thirty
bushels is claimed For these increases
exclusive credit is given to alfalfa.
Thus the soil, as well as everything
else In Colorado, is growing richer ev-

ABOUT SUGAR BEETS.
An Arkansas Valley Man Says They VIII
Not Fay.


Not Pay.
A Fowler correspondent of the Den

sugar beets:
In your editorial of January I'd you
state IL binding contract were drawn
up enabling farmers to dispose of their
beets at a stated price that probably
more than one Colorado community
would guarantee to raise them.
II seems strange to me that the news
papers and the members of the Cham
ber Of Commerce will waste their val
liable space and time trying to pro-
mote an industry that from the very
nature of things is impossible. in Colo
RADIO, and especially in the Arkansas
valley. l have always contended that
beets will never be grown in this
state because we cannot get the labor.
Enthusiasts will tell you that they will
get foreigners in-peOple who under
stand the business. This may do for
the first year. but they will never
grow the second crop because they will
look over into the next field and see
that their neighbor is growing ''the
lazy mans rop'-alfalfa-and they
will also discover that while he only
cuts and waters his crop and gets
eventually from $50 to 500 per acre
out of il. they have to give their beets
almost as much care as they would n
garden, and then only realize from $50
to $50 per acre. and that will end II
with them: they will grow alfalfa and
feed 1t to sheep and cattle next year.
