COLORADO AGRICULTURE
States Greatest Industry Has Its
Greatest Year by Many Millions

Preliminary estimates on all crops
grown in Colorado, made by the Blu
reau of Immigration, with the cooper
alton of various commercial bodies,
indicate that the states agricultural
output, exclusive of livestock, poultry
and similar products, will be worth
SI2,114,91O more than the output for
1915.
The increase is due largely to the
advance in the prices of nearly all
farm products, rather than to bigger
production. There are notable in
creases in several crops, but there
Ss5 also falling off in the yield in
a number of crops, due to the unusu-
ally dry weather that prevailed in
many sections of the state.
The total value of all crops is esti-
mated at SS0,196,71O, as compared
with 6S,0S1 800 for 1915. The yields
and prices have been checked careful
ly with the estimates made by the
United States department of agricul-
ture and are regarded as very con-
sentative.
The largest increase in any single
crop is in sugar beets. The acreage
cultivated to that crop this year was
225, ZOO acres, as compared with 160,-
900 acres for 1915 and $4,000 acres
for 1914. 1t is by far the largest
acreage of sugar beets ever harvested
in the state, the previous high record
being for 1913, when the acreage was
10000 acres. The output this year is
approximately 100000 tons, which, it
is estimated, will bring the farmers
$16,605,0 900. The farmers received
$10,337 600 for the 1915 crop; S9,691,-
7S4 for the 1914 crop and S1O,390 900
for the 1918 crop.
Though the potato crop is consider
ably below the average this year, its
value is close to the high record for
the state as a result of the unusually
high prices. The estimated yield this
year is 5,S72,0O bushels, as compared
with 7,155,00 bushels in 1915 and T.
10000 bushels in 1914. The present
crop, however, is valued at $S,514 400,
as compared with S4,722, 300 in 1915,
and $6,576,OO0 in 1914.
The same conditions obtain with
reference to the wheat crop. The pro-
duction this year is estimated at TO-
$4,000 bushels, against 13,3100O0
bushels in 1915 and IL $4,000 bushels
in 1914. But the current crop is val
ued at $1S,754, 100, against S10,914, 200
for 1915 and S9,162,720 for 1914.
There was some falling off in the
value of the hay crop, which is the
states biggest crop, so far as its
money value is concerned. The esti-
mated yield this year is 2,0470O0
tons, as compared with 2,649,0OO tons
for 1915 and 1925, 900 tons for 1914.
The 1916 crop is valued at s1S,423, 900,
compared with $50 1897 300 for 1915
and SIS, 555, 200 for 1914.
There was a falling off in the pro-
duction of fruits, but the prices were
high, with the result that the income
from fruits this year was nearly up
to the average for the state. The
production Of apples is estimated a.
2.O67 900 bushels. as compared with
2,O79 900 in 1915 and 100000 in
1914. The 1916 crop is estimated to
be worth S2,4SO.OOO, as compared with
s2.O79, 900 for 1915 and s3,6O0,OOO for
1914

A BURST OF SUNSHINE

Very often in life our pathway
seems dark, and yet right around the
corner, we may come into burst OF
sunshine. Walking in the shadows.
our eyes grow SO accustomed to the
dark that the light almost dazzles as
we turn the corner from shade into
sunshine. Life, too, lies along the
same kind OF path-now 1t is bright
with happiness, now dark with sor.
row, and 1t is such little step out
of the shadow and around the corner
into the sunshine that we all can
forget about the shade IL we walk fast
and keep our eyes on the light that
is ahead.
Sorrow and trial come to one and
all Of us at some time or another.
They are necessary part in the
formation OF character. The strong
character comes through sorrow and
trial with his eyes fixed on peace and
happiness ahead, SO that when he
turns the corner and leaves his
shadows behind his eyes are not das.
zled by the unexpected brightness but
are quite at home in the new light.

DIRTY MON Y,

There is good deal OF complaint
about the condition of paper money
It Is remarked that the bills are un.
usually dirty and possible menace
to health. Certainly there are some
Of us who feel that fresh clean notes
are less common than they used to
be though just as much currency
may have passed through our hands.
To clearly people, soiled bank
note bearing the accretions Of thou
sand hands, has its unpleasant sug-
gestions, notwithstanding its perfect
ly good purchasing power. One feels
doubly rich with little roll of new
notes, even II they are of the small
est denomination.
People who like clean money have
one recourse always open. That is to
cultivate the use OF gold. To this the
objection is felt that the shiny coins
are easily lost Also they are occas.
icnally mistaken for bright Lincoln
cents, or in the dark for nickles.
Yet the people Of Europe use gold
very freely and like It. They learn
from youth to carry 1t in separate
purses, and probably do not lose as
much OF It as our careless people.
The yellow coins have most music.
al jingle One feels like lord with
small number OF them in his peck.

But the use OF paper notes has be-
come an ingrained habit of our peo-
pie, That being so, the government
should keep them clean. II seems ra'
Their absurd to spend millions in
health department work, while per.
hitting dirty and germ carrying bills
to circulate freely as they do. Banks
and stores that make a practice OF
giving out as much clean money as
possible make themselves popular
among people who dislike dirt.

THE COUNTY FAIRS

The list OF county fairs and agri'
cultural and cattle shows held each
fall is becoming very impressive.
Indeed there Is a question IL there
are not too many. Probably some lit
tie groups of towns are holding them
that would do better to devote their
time to making some more central
show big success.
Still, the growth Of these fairs is a
sign Of activity and enterprise in the
country districts. 1t Is not as easy
a matter to run them successfully as
formerly. Then the facilities for am.
nsement we're more limited Now
there are movie shows in even small
villages, with automobiles and sum
mer resorts and ball games to eat up
the money OF the people. The coun
ty fair has TO compete with all these
attractions.
When the fairs were started farm
ers would usually give their services
out Of public spirit. There were a
few charges for labor. Feed for the
stock was often contributed free or
at a nominal cost. People want pay
now for their services and tradespeo
pie charge regular prices.
The fairs are made fun of for the
prominence of their amusement fea
lures. They are supposed to be ed
vocational. Yet the race track draws
the crowd, while the small knot OF
seekers gathers about the farm ex
pert's tent. Yet they do serve theil
fine purpose. II Is surprising tC
see what showing can be made o.
the resources of county. It give!
one a new respect for his own home
locality, sense OF its possibilities
The laggards and the indolent mus,
be spurred on to renewed effort by
seeing the fine stock and the hand
some food stuffs being raised by theil
neighbors. Visitors are impressed by
the attractions and opportunities Of
the locality. 1t is a matter of public
spirit and business sense to make
these fairs just as representative as
possible. Any county that fails tc
have one is sadly lacking in public
spirit.

way than by carrying our shadows
even into the sunlight! BY learning

THE LACK OF MALE
STENOGRAPHERS

The government seems to have diff
hculty in securing male stenograph.
ers, A recent circular states that
nearly 200 appointments are soon to
be made. To get them, examinations
will have to be .held all over the
country, September ~ and 26. but
while applicants for other civil ser.
vice appointments are sleeping on
the doorsteps OF their Congressman
no rush Of candidates for this posi-
lion is expected. What has become
of the male stenographer,
Newspaper reporters are asked al
most every day II they are familiar
with shorthand. This is because the
public conceives OF a reporter as
spending much OF his time in taking
down long reports OF speeches. In
actual practice the reporter soon
finds that he can get down in long
hand four times as much as his pa.
per will print. Few men in this
business ever find It worth their
while to acquire stenography.
In mercantile and manufacturing
The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1916-09-09

lines few fellows consider 1t of any
large use. To an ambitious man,
knowledge OF shorthand might even
prove a detriment. II would tend to
keep him at merely clerical work,
when he ought to be out getting his
hands dirty while he was learning
processes and materials.
Probably the government, like pri.
vate enterprises, will have to depend
more and more on women for steno-
graphy. The limitations that custom
still throws about womens work
makes this field peculiarly popular.
There are many capable girls who
would like to plunge into the heart
OF a business In overails and jumpers
like their brothers. But society would
be shocked. They are not yet ready
to defy society.
SO the girls will undoubtedly mon.
opollze this field or nearly SO. They
will crowd It too full, thus keeping
down the rates Of payment. This
drives out Of the business the men
who ever expect to support family.
No wonder that Uncle Sam must ran.

pert shorthand men.

Quite a contrast It Is from the days

Thus he was repeating the consol-

tried to soften life long grief.
The old saying that IL you saw a
Red Headed Girl, you would soon see
white horse, was precursor OF
the new point of veiw. 1t suggested

Now and for many years our bellies

The Red Headed Man is not yet con

He used to be regarded as a merely
quarrelsome, bbumptious, always tur-

him for quality that grows more
rare. Fighting blood tends to die out.
We all yield too easily to exactions
and abuses. The power of the Red

nounces wrongs and evils, is needed
in Our society. Wherefore hats of
