"lf Colorado gets her share of this
fund to be spent for soldiers settle
ment we must make some appropri-
alton to take care of it. We are in
formed that for every dollar that Col
rado puts into soldiers settlement
work, the government will put four
with it.
81 know there is considerable feel
ing among the people of the state
that an effort to reclaim state land
for the benefit of the soldiers is ridi-
culed. However, there is always a
tendency after all great wars for
many men to wish to go onto the soil,
especially in the west, and make
homes for themselves The soldiers
settlement plan as outlined by the In
terror Department has in view pro-
jects for building large reservoir
dams to store water to irrigate on
what is now dry land, and to have the
persons who take up this land settle
in little communities where there will
be school houses. churches, picture
shows, etc, for their benefit and am
usement. 1t does away with the form
er plan of each family going out by
himself and living isolated from his
neighbors.
I'VE are now working on a bill to
appropriate suitable amount of mon
ey under the direction of the Cover
nor, to be used in practical way if
Congress passes the soldier settlement
bill as is expected and unless this is
done, the money will revert back to
the Treasury Department of the State.

KEEN HAY SHORTAGE REPORT
ED IN THE COMPAHGRE VALLEY
MontroSe Press:

MontroSe Press:
Hay shortage in this citv and valley
has never been more keen, according
TO telephone advices received at The
Press office. Men who bare ten
days ago were feeling glad to get s12
ton for their hay, have recently sold
il at $3.50 stack and have been snapt
up quickly by cattlemen who have
all the hay in the upper valley bought
up, practically making a great short
age for other smaller consumers. Mrs.
Washburn Spent two hours Friday
telephoning all over the valley trying
to locate ton of hay for her stock
at any price but had no success and
has fallen back on meal, cottonseed
cake and straw in the emergency.
Gunnison news-champion., 1919-03-28

Breeders Gazette: The predicted
shortage of stock in consequence of
the war period drainage is material
izing. Western markets have had
about half normal supply of cattle
this week, putting prices back to the
high point of the season, except in
the case of common steers with weight
that sold out of line when packers
were filling urgent army contracts
last month, stockers and feeders have
new records, hogs have advanced soc
to 81 per cwt., from the low spot last
week and the live mutton market has
been runaway affair. During the
week yearling steers have sold at $40,
calves at SIS, hogs at $500, and
lambs at $3.50. Cattle values still
fuctate SOC to S1.50 per cwt. weekly
for which no logical reason can be
assigned. but recovery from every
break is prompt. Character of cur
rent supply demonstrates that the
winter crop has been closely market
ed, killers depriving feeders of access
to anything wearing little beef. The
advance in hogs has been facilitated
by light supply, live mutton trade
being on a semi-famine basis.
