COLORADO NEWS NOTES.

Through the collection by county as
SCISSORS OF acreage reports for all i'm
portant Colorado crops the state i'm
migration department has been able
to show during the current year that
the acreage of land In cultivation In
Colorado Is far In excess OF what those
best informed regarding agricultural
development have believed II TO be.
These reports show that the area In
cultivation In the state this year, In
Guiding native hay but not including
orchards. is approximately 100000,
or fully 100000 acres more than has
been shown by the estimates for any
preceding year The increase In cul-
tivated area In the state In the past
few years has been so rapid that those
whose task II has been to keep records
on agricultural development have
been unable TO show the full extent Of
the growth The census bureau showed
but 2,6li,0OO acres III cultivation ten
years ago. The United States Bureau
Of Crop Estimates showed but G0O,OOO
acres of wheat harvested In the state
In 1916, whereas the records prepared
by county assessors show that more
than 100000 acres was harvested this
year. The records Of the same bureau
The state herald., 1920-01-09

showed but 1900 acres OF rye har-
vested In the state In 1916, while coun-
ty assessors records show approxi-
matcly $4,000 acres harvested In 1919.
Since this MAS the first year records
OF this character ever prepared
by county assessors 1t is fair TO as
sumo that they are not SO complete rs
they will be In the future. Data OF
this character Is especially important
In state where agricultural develop
ment is very rapiN. as 1t has been In

TENANT TO OWNER
WITHIN Three YEARS

The Danville Advocate tells a
splendid story of Mercer county
mans advance from a tobacco
tenant to a farm owner in three
years. His creed, that has brought
him. success, should be adopted by
many others. The story is as fol-
lows:
Mr.. A. Peach, tobacco tenant on
the farm of Col. G. Evans, Just
outside the city limits on the Per
ryville pike. has made and saved
enough money in three years to
buy blue grass farm and pay cv-
cry cent spot cash for it. Mr..
Peach and his family came to
Boyle county from Burgin some
years ago. Last Saturday he pur-
chased from o. w. Cecil his farm
of "a acres, located on the Mitch
ellsburg and Perryville pike, and
will get possession on January l..
How did you do it, was asked
Mr.. Peach, and his reply was: "I
haven't spent a cent for gasoline.
While others were burning gas.
negletcing their crops and spend
ing their money, I remained right
on the job"
This also may be one of the rea-
sons that A. Peach got about sc
cents pound general average for
his tobacco last year. Mr.. Peaci:
also adpoted the cash plan which
he said he saw in the Advocate
had been adpoted by Capt. Collie
Day, one of Danvil1e's financial
wizards, who has grown comfor-
tab1y wealthy as the result OF
crediting no one and asking credit
of no one.

PROMINENT WOMEN
DESERT NEBRASKA COP

Omaha, Neb., Oct. 2OLRepubli-
cans in Nebraska are lying awake
nights worrying whether the new
woman vote is going to throw the
state to Cox.
That worry has a solid founda-
ton, too. FOG a sensation has just
been sprung in Nebraska politics
by the sudden public revolt OF
three of the states leading repub-
lican women.
All three have severed their
connections with their party and
have refused to support the re-
publican presidential ticket be-
cause of Harding's stand against
the League of Nations. All will
support Cox.
They are Mrs. Z. T. Lindsey
who has resigned from the state
republican committee Mrs. H. c.
Summey, resigned as republican
ward committee woman, and Mrs
James Richardson, who has quit
her work at republican headquar-
ters. All are from Omaha.
81 put principles before party,
said Mrs. Summey, 81 worked for
the League of Nations when the
late DR.. Anna Howard Shaw and
w. H. Taft were touring the
country in its behalf and l see no
reason to change my mind"
81 cannot conscientiously vote
for Harding" said Mrs. Lindsey
because l think the League OF
Nations is the most important is
sue that has ever come before the
people. It's establishment is the
only way to end wars"
That thousands of women will
follow these three suffrage lead
ers is conceded. 1t will throw a
big vote to Cox in Nebraska and
likely will have decidedly favor
able effect on the League of Ma
tions issue generally.
Were it not for this strong
democratic drift among women
and the obvious inclinations to-
ward Cox of the Nonpartisan Lea
que, Nebraska could be put down
as assured for Harding.
But these factors, together with
the fact that labor in the state ap-
pears to be largely for Cox. have
made democrats decidedly opti-
mistic of carrying Nebraska.
