GENERAL COLORADO NEWS

Compilations made in the office of
the state immigration department
from the records Of the state tax COM
mission show ti-at the patented land
in the state this year is 1921 per cent
of the total area, compared with 1898
per cent last yeir. OF this patented
land 26,620,911 acres, or 40.13 percent
of the area of the state, is assessed as
agricultural land, the remaining 2.0S
per cent being mineral land, railroad
rights of ways and town and city lots.
The area of irrigated land assessed is
2,495, 100 acres, or 9.37 per cent of the
assessed agricultural land. Dry farm
ing land assessed is l0,002,l acres,
or 37.5S per cent of the patented agri-
cultural land, whilN grazing land is
the largest class, amounting to a.
l23, ,529 acres, or 53.05 per cent of the
total. The rapid development of agri-
culture in the st tie in the past few
years is emphasized by the steady
growth in the acreage of dry farming
land assessed and a consequ mt de-
crease in the acreage of grazing land.
Reports of county assessors made to
the state immigration department in
dicate that approximately go per cent
of the land in cultivation in Colorado
this year is non-irrigated, compared
with about 80 per cent in 1909. The
rapid increase in t.-c acreage of nom
irrigated land cultivated compared
with very slight decrease in the
acreage of irrigated land, las result
ed in a sha-p decrease in tie average
yields per acre Of nearly all crops
grown in the state. The decrease is
especially ma-,.,d in winter wheat,
where less thin 12 per cent Of the
acreage is irrigated, compared with
51.1 per cent in 1909. There have also
been decreases in the average yields
Of csher small grains and slight de-
crease for alfalfa, due to the fact that
small acreages Of non-irrigated alfal-
IA nre being cultivated in some Sec
tions Of the state.

Reports received by the ss1te i'm
migration department from the small
or cities and towrs in the state show
that large number of professional
men from other states have located n
Colorado this year as a result Of the
departments 1919 survey of business
ard professional openings. A consid-
cradle number of business openings al
so have been flied but not nearly so
many as professional openings. The
demand for physicians has been strong
ard insistcnt since America entered
the war, ard considerable number Of
physicians Lave located in the smaller
Colorado communities in tx past elk
months, though a great mary towns
still are without physicians.

Bonds For Roads.

How sentiment has crystallized in this part of Geor
gia in favor of the building permanent highways is
strikngy shown the of Wednesdays bond cleo
ton in Sumter county.
1t was the first time in the history of the county
that the qualified voters approved proposal to
county without bonded Indebtedness for the simple
that all former attempts float bonds had been
defeated, The voters of the county simply not
in favor of the bond route public improvements.
But when a proposal made to issue 100000
worth bonds for construction of permanent high
ways in the county with the understanding that the
would be matched dollar for dollar with federal
road funds the people took different view of bond
possibilities They approved the issue overwhelmingly
the total vote being 1,1O9 for to 76 against Every
district in the county registered approval of the issue
The result of the Sumter election is significant, for
it indicates would indicate that there is
stronger goodroads sentiment in this section of the state
than has developed in favor any class public
improvements When county that never before would
vote to authorize any kind of a bond issue rolls
overwhelming majority in favor of half-mlion-
dollar outlay for system of permanent highways it is
logical conclusion that appeal of roads that last
i is simply irresistible
1t is probable that every proposed issue of good
roads bonds by Southwest Georgia counties will be ap-
proved the issue passed upon in Sumter Wednes

SWEET Potato is SECOND VEGETABLE.

The Importance of sweet potatoes Southern crop
emphasized the sweet potato conference held In
Birmingham Ala recently which attended by repre-
sentaves of the United States Department of Agriculture
and horticufuriss and pathologiss from 13 Southern
States Had such conference been called 10 even
years ago. says one of the Psychologists who attended the
meeting doubtful whether quorum could have been
mustered But when it is considered that the value of
the sweet potato has increased than so cent in
the 10 years that ranks second in value among
the vegetables the United States that the value of the
1917 crop reached the huge $9000e000 and that
of 1918 is estimated at almost s17OoOOOO it is diff
cu to understand why much interest is being taken
in this crop owly potato. long accustomed to
coming to market along the farmers surplus eggs
and chickens other products, is moving in soo
carloads to the markets of the North East and West
Only few years ago sweet potatoes spent their
winters in crude and primitive dirt banks in the open
field and under such storage conditions many of them
decayed but now they stored in specially designed
and constructed storage houses which is possible to
regulate the temperature and ventilation in such way
that this formerly unstable and perishable product can
be marketed with practically loss at any season of
the year Every phase of planting cultivating harvest

THIS AND THAT.
Says ''Bully" Like His Father.

Political interest in the entry of Lieut.. Col
Theodore Roosevelt into politics is in the West but
keener than New York City. The New York World
says:
Local Republican politicians have awakened to two
important political facts One is that the Roosevelt
name is party asset The other is that the younger
Roosevelt has much of the magnetism that made his
father popular. They will keep these facts in the
public eye.
so far height and build are concerned the young
er Roosevelt does not closely resemble his father Quen-
tin Roosevelt, who died in France bore much closer
resemblance to the father. Young Theodore however
has many of the mannerisms tricks speech
and apparently good deal of the habit of thought of
the late colonel gI.l.
When the younger man brought himself forcefully
to the attention Of the Republican leaders by making
speech at the Republican county committee meeting he
strobe to the front of the platform announced It's
bully be here He like his father at that in
slant that a score of commented on the fact HI
is very fond of the word bully which his father uset
often
"The shape of young Roosevelts head is like tina

PEACH CROP IN GOOD CONDITION.

The condition about April of the commercial peach
crop for the entire nation "a per cent of normal
compared to the final percentage last year of 524, &C
cording to the Bureau of Crop Estimates of the United
States Department of Agriculture. No quantity est-
given but the bureau assuming that adverse
conditions do not affect the crop later, said that the
April condition report indicates that the 1919 peach
crop may possibly exceed the light crop of
bushels in 1918 by much 40 per cent, and may
equal not exceed the 2S9O1 OOObushel crop of 1917
Conditions generally throughout the peach regions are
excellent says the bureau but emphasis is placed on the
temporary nature of early peach reports.

his father did He listens as earnestly and attentive
y the elder colonel did when interested. He has
hearty laugh and is reported to be rather more com
paniona0e with strangers than was his father He i'm
presses too having both feet on the ground all
the time"
An interviewer for the World asked Colonel Roose-
welt if he about to enter public life and got this
reply:
Yes, it is true I do intend to go out of business
and devote myself to public life.'
Does that that you are going into politics %?
With wide smile, Colonel Roosevelt replied:
"of course. That's exactly what mean by devot-
ing myself to public life"
He has platform too
Il believe strongly in the principles advocated by
my father believe strongly in the principle of uni
versa military service and believe strongly in unduted
nationalism Just what office may aspire to has not
been determined by myself. You know that we are as
Stunning that when public life it is because
the public wants him to do So"
Asked whether not the presidency of the board of
aldermen appealed to him, Colonel Roosevelt said mot
particularly, at this time" and added What the
of making any statement on this point? Nothing has
been offered to me-
The World writer concludes
THE Republicans have little they offer this year
to the young colonel other than the place in the city
government referred to- 1t is possible that he will
ceive opportunity go the assembly the
state senate possibly to the United States House
Representatives. 1t is rather likely that he and
those who wish to see him get ahead in nolitics will
wait until the opportunity arises to put him in promi-
nent place where he will be able to make his personality
felt and rapidly build up reputation

4 VERSE 4 DAY.
AFTERWARDS.
By Grantland Rice.

HE Years go by and man forgets
Old barbados in the bitter fray;
The ancient wrongs and the dull regrets
He knew so we'll in a vanished day;
The stopping hikes and the sudden fears
That haunted him in the mud and rain,
Are gided soon in the passing years,
Wiped clean again of the crimson stain
Never again''-is the doughboy's cry,
And deep in his soul he means it all;
But after the months have drifted by,
He leans again to the bugle call;
Soon forgetting the army slum,
The blasting shell in the swampy glen,
His dreams go back to the rolling drum
And life on the open road again.
The reveille of rainy dawn
An endless road with gun and pack
"A bawling out where the line is drawn,
With never a chance to answer back;
Broken dreams where the fokkers drift
Even the stockade, dull and gray
Drudgeries of a X P. shift
They all look good when you're far away

FOREIGN BORN PRAi,l'
Given Credit For Helping Govern
ment During World War.
Response Would Make Simon Pure
Americans Take Notice, II
Known, Say OFFICIALS.

Praise for the spirit and the ac-
tual performance of Americas foreign
born during the world war was given
apolis recently by Hans REG, head Of
the foreign language section of the
National War Loan Organization. Mr..
Reig spoke before Minnesota county
chairmen of the Mar Savings Stamp
division at a meeting which was ad-
dressed also by Theodore Void, gov
ernor OF the Minneapolis Federal Re-
serve bank. Arthur r. Rogers, chair
man OF the Ninth District Wan Loan
organization, John H. Meyering, b. s.
Bull and other workers of the govern.
ment securities committee.
I'm the purchase of Thrift Stamps
and War Savings Stamps the l3, 000,-
600 foreign born Americans and the
Is, 000,0 900 more whose parents were
foreign born have come forward with
a response which would make the ST.
mon pure Americans sit up and take
notice If 1t were generally known"
Mr.. REG said.
"A great benefit from the war Is the
realization 1t has brought US Of the
value of our foreign born brother citi-
zens. 1t has made us realize that they
are a welcome element In our popu.
lation and that their contribution to
our prosperity Is OF the foremost
importance. Their answer to the
draft summons, under which hundreds
Of thousands waived exemption, their
purchase of Liberty Bonds and their
conservation, much of which has led
to the purchase of War Savings
Stamps have all been whole hearted
performances.
I'VE are going about the organiza.
ton of War Savings societies with one
great purpose in view. We are going
to inculcate the virtue OF thrift in a
nation that is VIGOROUSLY profiigate.
And with this we are to couple a
course of Americanization, a further
effort to advance our foreign born
along the road of citizenship"
Mr.. REG told how the Ninth dis
trict's plan of using existing clubs
and societies as the nucleus of the
War Savings societies to- be formed
has the approval of the treasury de-
partment workers at Washington.
Organization and education, he said,
are the two great means by which
Americans can be changed from
spendthrifts to careful spenders and
~conservers of their resources. Mr..
REG emphasized the value of choosing
the right type of leadership and con-
graduated the Ninth district on the
men who are directing its War Loan
effort.
