THE CHRISTMAS TREE CUSTOM
Zee Of the Young Eyergreens ls Re-
Oarded More as a Matter Of sentI.
ndent, Not Of Economics.

L<VEIfY year some mathemat-
IL, ical calculator figures out
that this country would be
NJ several billions richer If, as
a nation, we abolished the
good, old custom Of the Christmas
tree. Yes, In actual dollars and cents
valuation Of otr natural. resources the
United States probably would be more
wealthy for the continued growth OF
the evergreens. However, we believe
no better return ever came from trees
than the true JOY which all mankind
gets from Christmas trees at this the
greatest Of all holiday seasons.
Nearly 100000 young evergreens
go upon the Christmas-tree market
each year, 100000 in New York and
the New England states alone, and 1t
is an easy matter for an enthusiast
who is quick with the pencil to figure
up the waste in our natural resources
by the annual loss Of this embryo tim
Der. The economic consideration Is
not entirely indefensible, for in the
Northeastern states particularly big
proportion Of the trees come from pas
ture land or that which would be
cleared in the ordinary course Of Inn
provement. Later, these trees would
be cut anyway. OF course, Wholesale
destruction over watershed areas
should be discouraged as In any for
estry activity, but 1t must be remem-
bered that the Christmas-tree custom
Is one Of sentiment, not Of economics.

COLORADO FARM NEWS

ouch reports as had been received
BY the State immigration Department
from county assessors up to May l
seem to indicate that there will be no
appreciable decrease in acreage un-
der cultivation in Colorado this year,
though earlier reports from other
sources indicated that the cultivated
acreage would be materially decreas-
ed on account Of inability on the part
OF farmers to obtain needed financial
support. Reports have been received
from something more than $500 far
mers and the total Of these reports
show larger amount of land under
cultivation than the total shown by
the first $500 reports received last
year.
q Increases in cultivated acreage are
indicated for Kiowa. Baca and Las
Animas counties, while most of the
other counties from which partial re-
ports have been received show little
indications Of changes fsom last yeat.
Contrary to the expectations Of many
persons well informed on agricultur-
al subjects, there apparently will be
an increase Of spring wheat as COM
pared with last year. A few of the
less developed counties in eastern Col
orado show increases in acreage of
winter wheat, but apparently there is
.. decrease in the principal winter
wheat districts, though most of these
same districts are showing increases
in acreage Of spring wheat.
Preliminary reports from the CEN
sus for 1920 show that the average
size Of farms in Colorado is 4O8.l
acres, compared with 1881 acres in
1910. This increase has been going
on steadily for several years and is
due to several causes, chiefly, which
are as follows: Most of the home
steads that have been filed on in the
state in the past four years have been
from 800 to GAO acres. During the
past five or six years many farmers
in the non-irrigated distrirts have in
creased the size of their farms by
purchasing adjoining land. In the
Leading fruit growing districts there
has been tendency for least eight
years to consolidate small fruit farms
into larger farming units. Many of
the small farm units in certain sec
tons of the San Luis valley also have
been consolidated into larger farms
within the past three years. A num-
Der of large tracts reported as single
farms in 1910 have been broken up
into smaller farms since that time,
but the effect of this has not been
nearly sufficient to counteract the
tendencies toward larger farms as out
lined above.
