POPULATION OF COLORADO.


Final reports OF the census bu-
reau on the population of Colorado.
now being compiled by the State
immigration Department for use in
the Colorado Year Book, show the
total population of the state at the
beginning of 1920 to have been
three counties in the state showed
increases in population from 1910
to 1920, and seventeen counties
showed decreases. Two of the
counties showing decreases. Cone
jos and Costilla, were decreased in
size during the period. Alamosa
county being formed from parts of
these counties. The combined pop
ulation of the three counties. how
ever, showed an increase. being 49,,
5s6 in 1920, compared with 49,,
1888 for Conejos and Costilla in
1910.
Ire largest. percentage of in
crease was shown by Baca County
I-246.s. The largest percentage
of decrease, 81, was shown by Gil
pin county OF the counties show
ing decreases in population. II are
primarily mining counties, and min
ing is followed to a considerable ex-
tent in two others. Only four
counties which may be regarded as
strictly farming territory showed
decreases in population, and two
of these. Conejos and Costilla. owed
their decreases to loss of territory
The largest percentage of decrease
in population were as follows:
Clear Creek. 1922; Coneios, 254;
Gilpin. 81; Hinsdale, 1871; Lake,
97.5; Mineral. 81; ouray. 25.4;
Park, 2O7; Pitkin, 4O.7; San Jaun,
Has; Summit, 1879 >; Teller, 55.S;
The largest percentages of increase
were as follows: Adams. 623;
Baea. 1866; Bent, ga; Dolores,
9S6; Logan, 80; Morgan, IS a;
Phillips, 73; Washington, S67;
Yuma, 6S5. The percentage of
increase for the entire state was
17.6. -s-z-5
In a general way it may be said
that the largest percentages of in
crease We're shown in the eastern,
northwestern and southwestern
parts of the state, while slight in
creases or decreases were shown in
the central mountainous counties in
the central western section. Only
two counties in the plains section
east of Colorado showed increases
less than five percent-El Paso and
Cheyenne. The increase in rural
population in El Paso county was a
bove 25 percent, but there was a
slight decrease in the population Of
Colorado Springs In the central
western section Montrose was the
only county to show an increase of
more than Is percent. while in the
southwest Dolores led all counties
with an increase of $50 percent.
The increase in the county was
largely due to agricultural develop
ment in the western part of the
county, there being a slight decrease
n the population of the town in the
eastern mining district. -

THE HISTORY OF THE sILo.

On up-to-date American farms
silos are extensively used as places
for storing and preserving succu-
lent feeds for dairy and other cat
tie, horses, hogs, etc. The silo
is essentially a water-toght. air
tank which preserves the green
fodder stored in3 II by shutting out
air AMI water and holding in check
the action Of bacteria. Green
corn, clover, -millet. oats, alfalfa.
or other green forage. may be used
as ensilage providing a substitute
for green feed during the winter
Fermentation always takes place but
normally the heat generated checks
it before it goes too far. This fer
mentation makes the forage better
for feeding purposes, bringing a
bout chemical changes which render
it easier of digestion.
The original silo. according to a
writer in the American Journal of
Agronomy. was simply a pit used
for the storage of grain in the dry
Mediterranean countries before the
Christian era From this comes
the name applied to the modern
structure for preserving green for
age. The modern practice is ira
ced directly to Germany and Hun
gary and is supposed to be the ap.
plication of the principle of pre-
serving sauerkraut The fact that
the Germans used salt in making
their first ensiiage. lends weight to
this opinion
At first silos for the storage of
green forage were simple pits dug
in the ground, larger at the top
than at the bottom. Into these
green grass packed and tramped
down by a number of men. Salt
was mixed in at the rate of one
pound to each one hundred pounds
of grass. The first attempt to en-
slle corn was made by German
sugar manufacturer in 1861. After
this various similar attempts were
made by Germans and Frenchmen
With varying legrees of success. A
Frenchman' through his investiga-
tions earned the Legion of Honor
award and the popular name" father
of ensilage"
Introduction into America lcane
through articles in agricultural
Journals and the annual report of
the u. S. Department of agriculture.
In 1891 Prof F. H. King of the Wis
consin agricultural experiment sta
ton began the study of the whole
subject of silo construction and en-
SLING. No man has done more than
he to make the silo success. His
tables for determining the tonnage
in a silo are now classics.
Silos are now usually built in
the form of towers, made of wood
slaves. concrete, tile, etc In the
South they are being made to some

ing lined with concrete and rooted

TODAYS AID TO BEAUTY

Hair is by FAR the most conspicuous
thing about US and is probably the most
easily damaged by bad or careless treat
ment. If we are very careful in hair
washing, we will have virtually no hair
troubles. An especially fine shampoo for
this weather, one that brings out all the
natural beauty Of the hair; that dissolves
and entirely removes all dandrun. excess
oil and dirt; can easily be used at tri1ing
expense by simply dissolving a teaspoon
full Of canthrox (which you can get at
any druggist's) in a cup of hot water
This makes full cup of shampoo liquid
enough SO It is easy to apply it to all
the hair instead Of Just to the top Of
the head. This chemically dissolves all
impurities and creates soothing, cooling
lather. Rinsing leaves the scalp spot
lassly clean, soft and plant. while the
hair takes on the glossy richness of ma

specifications called for.
The highway director insisted that
every transaction in connection with the
cOnstructio nof the garage was regular
and legal. He said the original bid was
$4,000. which did not include lighting
heating and fixtures. He said this
brought the price up to $4,000. He said
that after the garage was built 1t was
found that the roof did not meet with
the city fire inspection requirements and
1t had to be reconstructed, bringing the
price up to something more than S71,000
He said it also was found necessary to
equip a laboratory in the garage build
ing at a cost of more than $1,000.
THE plans and specifications were
drawn before the contracts were adver-
| tised' for and every contractor had a
copy" Mr.. Wright said IN answer to
charges of the examiners that the minutes
Of the commission showed Wright had
been ordered TO ''let the contract and
draw the specifications"
In speaking Of the 5000 expenditure
for testing, which the report criticises,
Mr.. Wright said Purdue University,
where the law says road materials must
be tested, refused to test certain kinds
Of materials and charged much more for
materials it did test than charged by
commercial Laboratories.
CHARGES EXAMINERS
USED WRONG BASIS.
In discussing the supplemental report
Of the commission comparing the In
diana highway department with that OF
other States, Mr.. Wright said the basis
on which the examiners figured the In
diana overhead is entirely erroneous and
that there is not a highway commission
in the country run more cheaPly than
the Indiana commission.
what is the average cost per mile OF
roads. including overhead and every
thing else? Mr.. Wright was asked by
a member of the House.
Il believe $4,000 would cover all Of
it," he replied
In reply to another question he said
he did not figure depreciation of equip
ment in with the cost Of road construc-
ton.
A number of members of the House
complained to Mr.. Wright that their
counties had paid large sums into the
highway fund in the form of taxes and
automobile licenses and that they had
not received an apparent return. Mr.
Wright replied that in this matter he
would pass the buck" to the members
Of the commission who lay out the roads
and designate the ones to be paved and
the ones to be maintained.

WAGE CUT TEST
LOST BY ROAD
Labor Board Decides A, B. &
A. Must First Prove Pay
y Unreasonable.

CHICAGO, Feb. 22-Railroad employers
of the nation today had lost their test
case before the United States Railroad
Labor Board for immediate reduction In
wages Of employees.
The board, In a decision rendered to
the Atlantic, Birmingham & Atlantic
Railroad, in effect said:
The fact that railroad cannot pay the
wages fixed by the labor board does
not empower 1t to notify its employees
that wages are to be cut; the road must
first prove that the wages are not lust
and reasonable"
The A, B. & A. case followsi
The road posted notices seven weeks
ago that wages were be cut.
Employees appealed to the labor board
which decided in favor of employees.
1t has been generally reported that
railroads all over the country intended
to post wage reduction notices In case
the A, B. A. won
