and more especially to the heavy
winds during the month Of March.
The condition Of winter wheat on
May was estimated at 85 percent
Of normal compared with rs percent
on April / and 100 percent on May !
last year. This condition Of IS per-
cent indicates a production on the
acreage devoted to the crop Of 49,
10000 bushels, compared with a
forecast last month of 13,203,000
bushels, this estimate being based
upon the entire acreage planted. The
final production Of winter wheat last
year was 1l,916,800 bushels, the
condition fthe crop ut harvest time
being only IS percent of normal. The
condition of the growing winter
wheat crop in the state is very much
improved since April l and has con-
tinued to improve since May to
date.
The condition of winter rye on
May l was S5 percent of normal,
compared with rs percent on April l..
This condition of IS percent indi-
Gates a production on the 100000
acres devoted to the crop of l.2O4,-
900 bushels, compared with a for
cast last year on May l of 1,560,-
900 bushels, on 100000 acres.

CROP AND LIVESTOCK NEWS

Losses of livestock from exposure
in Colorado during the year ending
May / were excessively heavy, ac-
cording to reports received by the
Colorado operative Crop Report
ing Service from all sections of the
state, while losses from disease were
about normal. These reports show
that losses of cattle from exposure
We're As head per 1000, which is the
heaviest loss reported in the past
eight years, with the exception of
1919, when the loss was so head per
1000. Losses of lambs from both
disease and exposure were 35 head
per 1000, compared with an average
loss of 40 head for the past eight
years. Losses from disease were as
follows: Horses, 81 head, cattle, 20
head, sheep 81 head, swine 33 head.
Heavy losses Of cattle from exposure
were due chiefly to unexpected bad
weather during the month of April,
after many cattle had been turned
into pastures, together with the in
ability of owners to obtain hay and
get to the stock after the storm
came.
Reports Indicate that about nine
percent of the 1919 hay crop, or
PAS, 1000 tons, remained on the farms
on May l, compared with six per-
cent, or l4s,000 tons in 1920. There
is apparently sufficient supply of
hay for the state, but many sections
were short of feed when the storms
came and were unable to obtain de-
livery at the critical time.
Indications are that about II per-
cent of the acreage of winter wheat
planted in the state last fall has been
abandoned. or about l17.000 acres.
This leaves for harvest about $751;
900 acres. compared with 1,064 900
acres harvested last year. The
acreage planted last fall was only
81 percent of that planted the pre-
ceeding year, and the abandonment
of the crop planted in the fall of
1918 was only percent. The heavy
abandonment this year was due
partly TO the poor moisture condition
when the crop was put in last fall

CHICAGO

Chicago is the worlds fastest
rowing large city. G
Incorporated in 1873, the first
federal census-that of 1840-gave
the "Windy Town" total of 4,4T0
souls.
The village on lake Michigan,
which before that time had been
nothing more than few houses
erected around Fort Dearborn, began
to feel "uppish" in 1850, however
when it found its population had in
creased to 29,963, or 57O.2 per cent.
The pattern set in decennial in
creases by the "Windy City," and the
pace kept has not been equaled by
any other large city in the world.
Originally occupying an area of 6H
square miles, the few squatty wood
en- houses at the mouth of the two
pronged Chicago river, the wonder
city has grown until it now covers
1917 square miles and extends for
twenty three miles along the shore
of Lake Michigan.
Chicago's situation as the key to
the northwest, middle west and far
west is given as the cause of the
city's growth and greatness. No
other city in the world has more
railroads entering it and it is pointed
out that no railroad train goes
through" Chicago. Every road en-
tering it has one of its termini there.
Chicago's growth in population
since its incorporation-dnring
which time it has become one of the
seven cities whose population ex-
ceeds two millions, is AS follows :
lS40- 4,470 1880 sos, ,lS5

Indications that the contractors
group in the Associated Industries is
anxious to capitulate and grant all
the demands of the building trades
men, but that the possibility that the
news of their defeat by the workers
would spread over the state and
cause reflections among the ranks
OF the association in other cities
where lockouts are in progress, We're
seen today in a statement of one Of
the contractors to a Bulletin repre-
sentative.

gang long enough. He promised us
that if we would. be guided in our
negotiations with our employees by
him we would have the open shop
here in Butte. we are now unanl-
mously of the opinion that the open
shop in Butte is entirely out of the
question.
''As for the wage demands Of the
building trades, we must also con-
cede the demands. It is only ques-
ton of how we can get out of a deli
cate position without being too great

on our pride.
"Should the men decide to go back
on the job, in one hour their wage
demands would be granted. This,

refused, and I don't blame them.
