COLORADO CROP NEWS.

According to information received
by the Colorado Cooperative Crop
Reporting Service through the Colo
RADIO branch of the u. S. Bureau of
Markets, there are in the state yet
to be shipped only about 500 cars OF
potatoes from the 1919 crop, COM
pared with about 5000 cars at this
time last year. Shippers in the
northern Colorado district were re-
ceiying $5 per cwt. for potatoes
l,about the middle of March, which is
{said TO be the record price at that
season during the history of the po-
tato industry there. Records of the
'iureau of Crop Estimates and the
l3ureau of Markets show that up to
March goth there had been S,574
carloads of potatoes shipped from
points in Colorado, compared with
1,222 carloads shipped to the same
date last year and a total shipment
from the 1918 crop of 1851 car
loads The figures now available in
dicate that the total shipments from
the 1919 crop will be a little more
than 5000 cars. To the same date
there were shipped in the United
States from the 1919 late potato
crop 106.7S0 cars, compared with
| 104, $50 to the same date last year.
| Total shipments from the 1918 late
crop were 1891 cars, and total
shipments. including the early crop,
| we're 176. $40 cars. Reports indi-
cate that the condition of the south
ern potato crop Is below normal and
that early potatoes will be late this
year in reaching markets, though
preliminary reports indicate an in
crease OF about IL per cent in acre
age.
Total shipments of boxed apples
from Colorado points up to March 20
this year, from the 1919 crop,
amounted to 1890 cars. according
% reports received by the Colorado
Cooperative Crop Reporting Service
from the Colorado branch of the Bu-
reau of Markets. On the same date
last year 3,402 cars had been shipped
and total shipments from the 1918
crop were 3,473 cars. Weekly cold
storage reports of the Bureau OF
Markets show approximately 5,232,-
| 800 boxes of apples in cold storage
on March /, which is 1852 per cent
more than on March /, 1919, and 80
per cent more than on March /, 1918.
From the same reports the holdings
of barreled apples on March / were
estimated to be 1881 ,660 barrels, or
I43.7 per cent more than on March ],
1919. and 12.3 per cent less than on
March /, 1918. From these figures
it may be seen that the reserve ap-
pies, boxed and barreled, Is consider
ably greater at this time than for
either of the last two years.

BAD SPORT YEAR
Defeat of Tennis Champion

NEW YORK. Jan. 22.-It's been
a bally bad athletic year for the
English.
Last on the list OF s.detracked
hopes is the decisive defeat the
British tennis team suffered in the
challenge games with the Austria
lians for the Davis cup.
Messrs Patterson. Brookes and
company won four out of five
matches and it is said that the Aus
tralians sent the youthful Anderson
against Kingscote in the second
match for the expressed purpose
OF giving the English a good chance

Joe Beckett, the lsulky gypsy
heavyweight started the heart
aches. He was groomed as the hope
Of the nation to jar the heavy
weight crown off the head OF Jack
Dempsey and bring it back to Eng
land after its long vacation from the
island The balloon on which they
tied their hopes was punctured and
futtered TO the ground when
Georges Carpenter ruined Beckett
and all English chances i'm the first
round
Then there is the case of Jimmy
Wilde, the nyweight champion and
a boy Of such popularity that the
English would like to run him for
king He invaded America and in
few short weeks dropped from
streamer headlines on the sport
pages to buried propaganda.
Jack Sharkey. rated as knowing
very little about fist affairs. out
pointed Wilde in his first light here.
Then Babe Asher weathered the
little British cyclone in ST Louis
and Jimmy has almost dropped out
OF sight.
Press Walls Loudly.
OF course. the English press
walled loudly of raw deal and
cheap methods of avenging Joe
Lynch and Pal Moore The sport
writer's even went 50 far TO press
their point of inferiority of Amer
leans i'm the ring that they declared
Ted Lewis and Pal Moore TO be
losers in recent bouts in London al
though both of the boys won by

With such d run OF luck. it's no
wonder the Britishers are not jubi-
lating over the Olympic games and
the invasion of Yankee athletes this
coming summer.

The proposed dual meet between
