THE BEAN
SITUATION

In 1916, the last crop yeal
preceding our entrance into
war, the total bean acreage ir
the five principal bean grow.
ing states of Michigan, Cali.
fornia, New York, New Mexi-
co and Colorado, in the order
named, was approximately one
million acres, from which the
general average production
per acre was ten bushels, and
during the war period, under
stimulus of the U. S. Food Ad.
ministration, occasioned by
war necessities, the acreage
touched the highest point in
1917, reaching the total of l..
10000 acres, with a general
average of nine bushels, again
returning to normal or pre-
war acreage, following the
Armistice, of one million acres
in 1919, again with a general
average of ten bushels to the
acre, of which $4,000 acres
represented Colorado with a
general average of six and
one-half bushels, and 128,000
acres representing New Mexi-
CO with a general average pro-
duction of seven and one-half
bushels.
From California, holding
first in bean production last
year, the opinion of a smaller
acreage given over to beans is
borne out by information from
the United States Bureau Crop
Estimates, the California De-
partment of Agriculture, and
reports from the district man.
ayers of the California Bean
Growers Association that their
estimate is that the 1920 bean
acreage in their state will not
be over 40 percent of normal,
and i'm no case does any au-
thority estimate the coming
California acreage to exceed
SO per cent of last year. A
so percent reduction this year
in California would mean the
elimination of about 100000
acres in that state alone.
Reports coming from Mich
igan and Idaho, also New
York, this week likewise pre-
dict material reductions in the
bean acreage this year.
With the certain prospect
of heavy reductions in the
bean acreage in other states
this year to a point decisively
under normal it will be inter-
esting to learn what our home
growers will think best to do
in view of such prospects for
the future bean crop.-Rocky

er, with damages laid at $16O'
After hearing the evidence
and arguments the court

passed the matter up to the
district court of Bernalillo
county.

PARAGRAPHS
OF THOUGHT
By Bernard S. Rodey.

|
When the bosses of the Old
Guard Republicans near the
end of last year, started in to
ignore Hiram w. Johnson as
an aspirant for the presidency,
he announced that he did not
care, that he would take the
matter before the people and
he is now doing that with con-
siderable success as can be
seen. AS to this state of New
Mexico, it seems that Hiram
did not know we were still
without a direct primary law,
and that he would have to
go to the bosses for dele
gates. Of course he did not
know that, for he had no rea-
son to believe we were so
backward. He did not know
that you cannot "go to the
people," on any proposition in
New Mexico, save as the Ger
titled" candidate of a party,
and that you can get your
name on a ticket in no other
way than by getting the boss
es to choose you as the par
ty candidate, and certifying
your name to the Secretary of
State, or the county clerk, as
the case may be, as a party
nominee. Of course, even if
you are not nominated, your
friends can vote for you at
the election if they like, but
they must do it by scratching
one of the printed names of
the certified" candidates off
the ballot and writing your
name on instead: but friend,
how many votes do you think
you would poll at any cleo
tion if all your friends had to
vote for you in that way?
Yet that is how it has to be
done in New Mexico!!!! And
there are about a hundred and
twenty-five editors in, and
whose work circulstes in New
Mexico, who are fully aware
of this condition, and never
write a line about it!!!! I
would hate to contend that
any of those editors are so i'll
informed as not to be aware
of this condition. So also
would ] hate to say that any
of them actually approve our
lack of a direct primary law.
The numerous articles now
appearing in the magazines,
showing how a direct pri-
mary law, and other modern
progressive laws, eliminate the
bosses, and enable the people
to govern, will surely impress
even New Mexico editors.
Among these articles may be
mentioned, the one in the Lit
erary Digest Of the first week
of April, and the one in the
Outlook this week april 21)
both about Hiram w: john
son.
