STATE INSTITUTIONS
s.ooe Attend CsssraAs Colleges Last

T. Provi1e AiA-

More than nine thousand students
attended the regular sessions of Colo
rado's institutions Of higher learning
last year, according to statistics made
public today by the State Educational
Publicity Bureau. Thi is an increase
Of nearly a per cent. over the year
1861 when 6,255 were enrolled.
The period of comparison extends
over four years SO MS to show normal
increases rather than those affected
by the war.
The Colorado School Of Mines ranks
first in growth with an increase Of
approximately 100 per cent. and the
University of Colorado is next with =
gain of more than SO per cent The
Colorado Agricultural College shows
n growth Of SO per cent. The Colo
RADIO State Normal School and the
Colorado State Teachers College show
increases of 14.65 per cent. and 9 per
cent. respectively. The small growth
of these last two institutions is at
triubted to the unattractive salaries
offered in the teaching profession.
reports from q number Of other states.
Despite the decreasing value of the
dollar, now worth about 40 cents as
compared with 1916, these institu-
tions have been endeavoring to oper-
ate on an income which has advanced
in number of dollars onlv in ratio to
the enrolment. This means, the re-
port points out, that the income re-
ceived from the state last year was
worth no more than the income re-
ceived in 1916 when only half as
many students were enrolled.
Many students were turned away
at the opening of the University last
year on account of the lack of facil-
tiles to provide instruction for them.
In other schools the floor space and
number of instructors have not been
increased to take care of the growing
enrollments. Classrooms have been
over-crowded, equipment lacking and
the instruction Of students otherwise
hampered. To provide these in
creasing demands for more teachers,
classrooms and laboratory supplies
costs money.
In order to save the colleges from
financial disaster, educational au-
thorities and other interested citizens
of the state have initiated an amend
ment to the constitution enabling the
Legislature to provide sufficient funds
for the maintenance Of higher edu-
cational institutions. This amend
ment will appear on tthe ballot at the
general election November 2.

EPLAINING NEEDS OF
THE STATE EDUCA-
TIONAL BODIES

On Friday evening, September II,
o meeting was held at the court house
to consider the Educational Amend
ment that is to be submitted to Colo
RADIO voters at the November election.
DR.. c. c. Eckhardt, of the Univer-
sity of Colorado, spoke briefly con.
cerning the Amendment and how it
would affect the interests of the State
Normal Of this city, and the four
other state institutions Of higher
learning at Greeley, Boulder, Fort
Collins and Golden. He showed how
the income of these institutions had
not been increased to meet the rise in
prices, and as result the work Of
these institutions was seriously
threatened. All kinds Of supplies
and materials used by these schools
have advanced 100 to 800 per cent.
Because other institutions are able TO
pay higher salaries the state schools
have been losing many of their best
men. The University has lost one Of
the best known engineers Of the
country, Dean Ketchum, and many
other prominent educators have been
called to other positions through
much more attractive salaries. Dur
ing the last four years the Agricul-
tural College has lost 125 men, many
Of them going to other state agricul-
tural colleges, and taking positions
as chemists in sugar factories as ad-
vis0rs in banks, and in other COM
mercial work. The loss Of these men
to the agricultural interests Of the
state cannot be estimated. They
were experts on agricultural condi-
tions in Colorado and their places
must be filled by men unfamiliar with
the problems that are Of special in.
terest to the state.
The College has been working On
various problems-the elimination Of
pests, plant and animal breeding,
high altitude stock, irrigation prob.
lens, feeding problems, and many
others. The College answers from
80, 900 to 10000 letters annually CON.
cerning inquiries from agricultural
interests. But from lack Of fundl

FARM TENANTRY ALLOWS
YOUNG MEN TO PURCHASE
LAND MORE RAPIDLY
Some People Complain Because Of
Unfriendly Attitude Of Many Ten
ants-Dean Davenport Would Have
Communities Pass Judgment Before
Tenants Move In

With the awakening of public in
terest in the subject of farm tenantry
it is proper to ask the question, "Why
is tenant? ?" The Colorado Crop Re-
porting service reports 1913 tenants
in 1920 or 24.6 per cent of the total
number of farms-this compares with
$3.50 tenant farms in 1910 or 1872 per
cent of all the farms in 1910 and 5.5S1
in 1900 or 22.6 Of all the farms in
1900. The actual number Of tenants
in 1920 is double what it was in 1900,
but the per cent of total farms is
only two per cent greater. This ap-
parent discrepancy is due to the great
increase in the number of farms in
the state in the 20 years due to home
steading and the breaking up Of large
ranches. It would seem then that
Colorado finds it necessary to have
from one-fifth to one-fourth Of all
its farms worked by tenants.
Why this number Of tenants? Be.
cause briefly It is the most rapid road
to farm ownership, according TO 3. 7.
