INCREASE In ACREAGE
FOR ROUGH FEEr CROPS
Due to Shortage of Feed IN Early
Spring-Less Attention to
Other Crops.

The acute shortage of stock feed
that overlook many farmers in all
parts of Colorado this spring during
the severe snow storms apparently
is having the effect of causing an in
crease in the acreage devoted to
rough feed crops in all stock raising
districts of the state this year
Reports being received by the i'm
migration department from county
assessors show an increase in the
acreage devoted to such crops as
millet, sorghums, sudan grass, sweet
clover and similar feed crops, espec-
tally in the non-irrigated districts,
while in many counties there is ap-
rarently decrease in the acreage de-
voted to grains, potatoes, beans and
similar crops.
The acreage of corn will be in
creased in most counties, and there
has been a very material increase in
the number OF silos since the report
for 1919 was compiled, SO that the
amount of feed available next winter
aud spring should be considerably
greater than that for the past season.

STILL "JlNiNfED UP"
Chieftain Still Unable to Secure a
Linotype Operator


The Chieftain is still unable to Sc.
cure linotype operator and is,
therefore unable to get out on time
until it does get help. This help sit
uation is serious problem, and that
together with soaring costs of paper
is causing many Of the smaller pa
pers throughout the country to sus-
pend publication.
The Chieftain does not expect to
suspend If there is any possible way
around it. Until skilled help can be
secured, however, the regularity of
the issue of the paper must of neces-
sity be uncertain.
In the meantime the management
is trying every known method to Sc
cure assistance and trust the patrons
of the paper will continue to appre-
ciate the conditions as they are and
bear with the irregularities mention
ed.
If you have friend or relative
who is linotype operator who might
be available, please tell US about it.

acted the william, and really surprised
all but two of the members, who
had conspired to put on this stunt
At the river the young folks, of
