THE BEAN SITUATION

In 1916. the last crop year pre-
ceding our entrance into the war,
the total Bean acrege in the five
principal Bean Growing States Of
Michigan, California, New York
Mexico Colorado, in the order named
was approximately One Million Acres
from which the general average pro-
duction per acre was Ten bushels,
and during the war period, under
stimulus of the U. S. Food Admins
tration. occasioned by war necessi-
ties, the acreage touched the highest
point in 1917. reaching the total of
100000 acres. with a general
average production of Seven and ono
again returning to normal or pre-
war acreage, following the Armistice
of One Million aces in 1919, again
with a general average of Ten bush
els to the acre, of which $4,000
acres represented Colorado with a
general average of Six and one half
bushels, and 12S.O0O acres represen-
ting New Mexico with a general
average poduction OF Seven and one
half bushels.
From California, holding first
place in bean production last year,
the opinion of a smaller acreage
given over to beans is borne out by
information from the United States
Bureau Crop Estimates, the Califor-
mia State Department of Agricul-
ture, and reports from the district
managers of the California Bean
Groers Association that their esti-
mate is that the 1920 bean acreage
in their state will not be over 40
per cent. of noraml, and in no case
does any authority estimate the
coming California acreage to eX-
ceed so per cent. of last year. A
so per cent reduction this year
would mean the elimination
of about 100000 acres in that state
alone
Reports coming from Michigan and
Idaho. also New York, this week
likewise predict material reductions
in the bean acreage this year
With the certain prospect of heavy
reductions in the bean acreage IN
other States this year to a point de-
cisiely under normal it will be in
terestlng to learn what our home
growers will think best to do in
view of such prospects for the fu-
ture bean crop.

BLIZZARD EFFECTS.

The big snow storm of last week
effected everybody and everything,
from the individual farmer to the
big corporation.
The farmers, as usual at this
season of the year. are low on feed
for their stock. The snow being
so deep and heavy, meant much
feeding for the farmer, and the de-
mand for hay and grain was above
normal. and to make it worse, hay
hard to get.
stock growers lost heavily
Families were in desperate cir
cumstances for fuel. Coal could
not be delivered in the cities for
several days.
Train service was absolutely an
nuled. from week to ten days.
Tracks were covered with many feet
OF snow. and the cuts were piled
fun with drifted snow. Some
trains were completely buried
Roads are in very bad condi-
tion. and to make a trip of many
miles is almost impossible,
All methods of combating the
drifts were applied. and as result
within a few more days, with the
aid of old Sol, travel will become
better. On some of the mountain
roads and railways. where the snow
Is much worse, soldiers have been
called out to help clear the ways
as stock and people were in a per-
ishable condition.
The snow being very wet, trains
are now running on slow orders,
and the schedule time is overlook ed
for the present.
Telephone lines and service did
not receive as much damage as did
the other service occupations.
The farmers who took advantage
of the good weather during March
and plowed all they could are far
ahead. as The loosened soil is alb
sorbing a larger amount of the
moisture.
With the exception of loss of
stock and the troubles of blockade
and cold incurred. the storm in gen
eral means much to everybody con-
cerned. There's a little bit of
good in every bad little yaw."

PRESENT CONGRESS HAS SORRY
RECORD.

Washington D. C.-0nly about
thirty working days remain of this
1ession of Congress if the plan of
the Republican leaders for a recess
or adjournment early in June is
followed.
Three or four appropriation bills
must yet be considered by both
the House and Senate; the House
Ways and Means Committee is en-
deavoring to formulate program
for adjustment of the pay of re-
turned soldiers; the House Com
mite on immigration is consider
ing the adisability of adding to the
restrictions of the existing fmmi-
grafton law, and the Senate has be-
fore it the proposal to create a
budgetsystem. This is about all
the work it appears Congress Will
attempt to dispose of
Granting that budget legislation
Will be approved and that bill for
adjusted compensation for soldiers
will get through the record for thir-
teen months of this Congress Will
be.
Passed annual appropriation meas
ures. which must be enacted yearly
for the Government to function and
which should not require more than
two months of the time of any Con-
gress.
Passed railroad bill, which actu-
ally held the attention of Congress
as a whole about ten days.
Budget legislation, which should
not require more than two weeks.
Soldier adjusted compensation leg
islation, which should require not
more than one week.
Much Time Waited.
In all, the work done by this Con-
gress should not have required more
than five months of real and sincere
effort. But thirteen months of Con-
gress, divided in two sessions. will
have been required to pass this leg
islation.
OF course, the Congressional Rec
ord will be filled with discussions OF
private bills. etc, but it will be
quantity record" and is really a
record of problems avoided and of
almost complete success in the plan
to do nothing. This was in the
plan of the Republican leaders when
this session was convened because
Of the desire, for partisan reasons,
to postpone consideration of all i'm
portant matters until after the No
vember election.
From good Republican authority
Goes the admission that the Con-
gress has done nothing. In a speech
on the floor of the House recently
Representative Fuller. of Massachu-
setts. expressed the fervent wish that
his party might be cured from the
attack of sleeping sickness" which
he declared it has suffered from ever
since it came into control OF 9th
branches of Congress. He declared
that it had done nothing construc-
tive, but had devoted the larger
part of its time to criticism of the
President.
