Florida Press Opinion
Florida the Goal of Motorists.


The most important action ever taken by the
the members met in called session at Orlando to
consider action looking to the Improvement of high
way conditions in the northern part of the state.
At this meeting Of the highway board a contract
was awarded the j. Y. Wilson Construction Company
amounting to approximately million and a half
dollars for the building OF grouted brick road six
teen feed wide that will connect Jacksonville and
Lake City. Possibly few realize the Tremendous
importance Of this step. 1t means dozen lateral
roads from our neighboring state of Georgia 1t
means Furthermore, than after the completion Of
this highway it will an easy matter for the auto
tourist to reach any part of Florida. 1t means a
marvellous increase in traffic for every highway in
Florida because people from all parts of the coun-
try will pour in this route in increasing
numbers. And again it means the completion of
the extreme eastern end of the Old Spanish Trail
between Los Angeles California and St Augustine
Florida, highway that promises great advantage to
every section of the country through which it
psses. The Old Spanish Trail is not dream: the
project has the active backing Of good roads
ganizations all along the route California to
Florida and especially through Texas and Louisiana
it may readily be seen that to be able to adver-
tise to the world the completion of the eastern term
mus is of vital Importance to the enterprise.
When Chairman Smith and John E. Gill,crt cf the
state road department Were here few days ago III
conference with the St. Johns county commission
ers and the good roads committee of the Board of
Trade emphasis placed the plans of the
road department to first of all provide easy and
comfortable sccess to Florida In awarding this
fine contract for a long section of State Road No
1, Floridas front door is being thrown open and
with this action there goes out an invitation for all
the world to come and visit This work is also
the forerunner of the early completion of this road
right through to Pensacola. Nothing prevent
this being accomplished because already the work
is in progress great bridge spanning the Apa-
lachicola river at River junction. In less than four
years it ought to be possible to travel to Pensacola
on high with and comfort.
While this cross-state road is being built the short
route to Waycross Ga, is not being neglected
Chairman Smith has stated that surely by mid
ner the state road department Will have paving
operations under way the splendid grade
north of Jacksonville to the border line at st.
Marys river. Thus there are being provided two
routes into Florida that will bring thousands Of
people who have far been afraid to venture with
their cars into what by reputation has been land
OF bad roads and unpleasant motoring. Now all
this will be changed: those who have striven and
worked hard for the advent of that glorious day
when Florida can eonscentiously advertise the ex-
stence of good roads into and out of the state
about TO their dreams turned into reality.-St.

TAKES A WHOLE YEAR
TO MAKE STATE FAIR
HOST OF PEOPLE SPEND THEIf
ENTIRE TIME GETTING
READY.

it takes a whole year to make II
state fair.
In fact, it takes a number of whole
years to make state fair.
Before the gates closed on the 1919
state fair, the officers of the Colorado
State Fair ommission-Messrs To.
bin, Bogart and Walter, and Manager
]. L. Beaman, were planning and work
ing for the fair which will open OF
September 10, 1920.
Every day since that time they have
been working and planning to make
this years fair so much better than
last years big success that there viii
be no comparison.
Every day from this on until the ex.
hibits are in place on the morning OF
September 10, they will continue to
work little harder each day.
Then they will devote their time tc
making every exhibitor and every Wis.
itor glad that he or she came to tho
fair.
Not only the officials named work
all the time for the fairs success, but
their many employees are doing the
same, and not they alone, but livestock
breeders. and manufacturers, artists
agriculturalists, hOrticulturists and en-
tertainers are working all the time fol
the 1920 Colorado State Fair.
For years and years and years the
work of building up q creditable Colo
RADIO State Fair has been in progress
and now that it is distinctly and alb.
solutely a state institution, all the
people are working for its unbounded
success.
The Holly chieftain., 1920-08-12
IT Is YOUR STATE FAIR; IT
BELONGS TO ALL COLORADO

Thee Colorado State Fair. is in nc
sense an experiment.
1t is a solid, substantial, permanent,
state institution.
The grounds, the buildings and all
belong to all the people of the state.
Exery taxpayer, every citizen is q
part owner in the state fair; each per
son who says or does something fol
the good of the fair, does 1t for him
self-his own individual interest.
Las years was the first fair that was
really under complete state control
and ownership, and the increased in.
terest in it was manifest to wonder
full degree. The people in every Sec
tion of the commonwealth demon
strated their appreciation Of it as q
state institution, and so pleased were
all with the great show that many
persons from the remotest parts Of
Colorado began right then to work for
the betterment Of the 1920 fair.

MORE ALFALFA
Crop for the Year 1920 Will Be
Worth $3s, ,00O,O 900.


Colorado's alfalfa crop this year
will be the. largest on record and
at current prices will be worth
above $3S,OOO,OO0, compared with
about $31,OO0,O00 last year. Near
ly complete reports from county
assessors show 635,677 acres of al
falfa in the state, compared with a
total of 620,l86 acres reported last
year. Complete reports this year
will show above $4,000 acres, an
amount reported last year
The first and second cuttings OF
alfalfa this year have been excep.
tionally heavy in most sections OF
the state, according to all reports
received by the state immigration
department, and indications are
that the average yield of the crop
for the state as q whole will be
slightly above three tons per
acre, which is considerably above
the average for the state though
yields of six tons per acre are Of
ten obtained in some districts.
The states total hay crop this
year will be worth above $5O,OOO,-
600. or as much as all crops grown
in the state were worth in 1909.

SPOTLIGHT RACING
AND FUNNY ANTICS

Spotlight horse racing will be one
of the great novelty features at this
years Colorado State Fair.
Night racing on the great half-mile
track, with powerful searchlights fol-
lowing the racers all the while, will be
one Of the most exciting events imag
Unable.
Beside the racing and the fireworks
each night, there will be number OF
other track events, particularly in
front Of the grandstand and bleacfers
and on the infield. The fair commits.
sioners are determined that the night
show will be just as interesting az
many attractions, brilliant illumina.
tions and searchlights can make. it
And this means every night Of the

1 ,o5s, ,os6 ACRES OF CORN
IN COLORADO THIS YEAR
Largest Acreage In States History
indications Are That Crop
Will Be Worth $4,000, 900.

Will Be Worth 100000 900.
Complete reports received by
the state immigration department
from county assessors of IS coun-
ties and partial reports from five
counties, show total of LOSS, ,096
acres of corn in the state this
year, compared with q total OF
956,371 acres reported by assessors
from all counties 1ast year.
Complete reports from all coun-
ties this year will show approx
mately 100000 acres of corn in
cultivation in the state, or near
ly 10000 acres more than was re-
ported by county assessors for
1919, and more than three times
as much as was reported by the
census bureau for 1909.
Present indications are that
assessors reports for all crops this
year will show not to exceed 80
percent of the total acreage, so
that the actual acreage devoted
to corn in Colorado this year Is
apparently in excess OF 100000
acres.
Weather cnditions have been
generally favorable for the corn
crop this year and indications are
that the total production will be
far in excess Of that for last year.
