WASHINGTON NOTES
McAdo0dled Roads.

1t looks as though TIME will demon
strate that the worst of McAdoo's
economic blunders was in increasing
the expenses of the railroads without
increasing their revenues at the same
time, when everybody and every busi-
ness was able to pay high freight
rates, thus leaving the railroads prac-
tically bankrupt and with heavy ex-
pense charges at the time depression
came and placed business in a condi-
toin that made payment of high rates
difficult. No one would have COM
planned of an increase in rates if it
had been coincident with the increase
in expenses. Then all kinds of bust
ness were active and prosperous. 1t
was period of initiation. People
were getting high prices for what they
had to sell, whether commodities or
labor, and they would naturally ex-
pect to pay correspondingly high trans
portation charges. But Mr.. McAdoo
left the raising of rates to be accom-
plished when there was halting of
business and when payment of high
charges would be burden upon ship
pers. Ordinary business sense would
have prompted man to try to in
crease revenue at the same time that
expenses were increased.

at least three years. If, however, we
Judge from the number of farmers
| that grow the various crops, then both
corn and alfalfa rank above wheat.
The census report for 1919 showed al
falfa ranking first in this respect,
with wheat second and corn third. But
/! the reports of county assessors to the
State immigration Department indi-
cate that more farmers are growing
corn this year than wheat, and per-
haps more than are growing alfalfa.
The census report showed 24,870
farms reporting alfalfa, 23,96l report
ing wheat and 22,s73 reporting corn.
The first 10000 farms reported this
year showed7,038 growing corn, $3.50
growing wheat and 5,109 growing al
falfa. Later reports, not yet complete
ly tabulated, have shown larger per
centage of alfalfa, so that alfalfa still
apparently ranks second in distribu-
tion, while corn apparently ranks first
There is no doubt, however, that
greater acreage is devoted to wheat in
the state this year than to any other
crop.
In 1920 assessors reporting to the
Immigration Department showed that
alfalfa was grown in every county in
the state except three and all counties
except two reported wheat Corn is
not so widely distributed geographic
ally as wheat and alfalfa. there being
nine counties that reported no corn.
This crop is growing rapidly in pop
ularity in the state, however, and is
being grown on nearly all the new
farms now being put in the producing
class in the southeastern part of the
state, while in many districts of high
er altitude where it was formerly
thought corn would not mature it is
now being grown successfully for sill
age and in some instances is even be-
ing cultivated for grain. Partial re-
ports of county assessors show that
there will be considerably more than
100000 acres devoted to this crop
in the state this year, while the area
devoted to alfalfa apparently will not
be in excess of 100000 acres.

OUR MOST POPULAR CROP

What is Colorado's most important
agricultural crop?
Not many years ago farmers in
other states would have laughed at
such question at the implication it
contained that anything important
could be produced on farms in Colo
RADIO. Twenty years ago all the crops
grown in the state annually were
worth less than the mineral output
of Teller county, and 30 years ago all
crops grown in the state were worth
less annually than the output of n
single mine in Lake county.
Now the value of the annual output
of each of three important crops grown
in the state is greater than the com
bined output of gold and silver for the
entire state. These crops are wheat,
corn and alfalfa, while in 1920 the
value of the sugar beet crop was great
er than that of either corn or alfalfa.
II the importance of crops grown
in the state is measured by acreage
and by value of output, then wheat
holds first rank, and has held it for

The announcement of the Railroad

the stimulation of work by the roads.
The Chicago & Alton has reemployed
5000 maintenance of way men and

900 more will be taken on about the
1st of June. 1t is freely predicted
that by the 1st of July all of the 25O,-

will have been given positions. That

the new wage schedules when they

AID TO NAVIGATION

All uortbeuers will be pleased with the announce incut that general movement has been started in the American congress for the increased establishment of lighthouses and other aids to navigation in Alaskan waters Yukon is SO situated that an travel between this critoy and the outside world is through Alaskan waters therefore, making the matters of safety to life and property in that region of as much concern to Yukon .rs as to Aaskaus themselves
 The Princess Sophia distaster, which marked the .addcst day in Yukon and Alaskan history occurred hrcc years ago tomorrow The anniversary recalls vv dlv thc general demand that followed immediately upon he tragedy that something should be done to make nav eatiou in those waters less hazardous Aaskans and lu soucrs had lesson in that great loss which should ever make them jealous to the best possible protection against similar disasters.
 Northcucrs can help not a little in the movement to secure the more generous appropriations for more light houses buoys and other aids to northern navigation The legislative representatives cannot work effectively wth ,ut support from those they represent
 The interior water courses of the North also need much improvement The several heavy losses in steam CTS in both Yukon and Alaskan waters during the sea ,,u just closed has afforded several examples of necessity of improvements of channels by removal of rocks and snags and deepening of channels bars. Loss of time and the enforced carrying of light cargoes as well as loss of equipment must be counted among the present hand caps and the burden is shared by an who travel OF have traffic to handle on these water courses-Dawson News
