COLORADO TAXES
Tendency Still Upward in Almost
Every County in the State.

The amount of direct taxes paid per
capita in Colorado is increasing stead
lily and rather rapidly, according to
figures compiled by the State Immi-
grafton Department from the records
of the State Tax Commission. These
figures show that the total of state,
county, municipal and school taxes as
sessed in the state in 1920 amounted
to $41.95 per capita, compared with
1854 per capita in 1919. Figures
for 1921 are not yet available, but
such advance information as is avail
able indicate that there was n further
increase in levies and in per capita
payments.
The increase shown in 1920 over the
previous year were due chiefly to in
creases in the school levies and in the
general county levies. The state levy
for 1920 was the same as for 1919
BAT mills. The total average levy for
1920, including state, county, munich
pal and school levies, was 27.74 mills,
dceoiuinB " tiie csileuidtioIiS VI tnt
Tax Commission, compared with 22.21
mills in 1919, or an average increase
of about 2.5 mills.
The per capita expenditures for both
years are based upon the population
announced by the census bureau for
January 1, 1920 This makes the ap-
parent increase in per capita taxes
slightly higher than the real increase
for the reason that the population in
1919 was undoubtedly slightly below
that of 1920, so that the real per cap
ita tax expenditures for 1919 were
slightly higher than those here given
All agricultural counties show con-
siderable increases in per capita taxes
and some of them show very high in
creases. Only ten counties in the
state show decreases, all of these ex-
cept one-Grand-are mining counties
Most of the important mining counties
show slight decreases in per capita
tax levies or else show very light in
creases. As general thing per cap
ita taxes have in the past been high
er in the mining counties than in the
agricultural counties, due in many
cases to very high municipal levies and
to high levies IN a few cases to pay
off county bonds. Average per capita
tax assessments fci 1920 range from
s25.17 in Baca county to more than
$50 in Summit county. Average levies
vary from 14.0S mills in Jackson coun-
ty to 3s mills in Teller county. Only
three counties show decreases in school
levies for the year ard these decreases
are very small.

The policy of the Board is in line
with Republican policies generally,
that of divorcing the government from
engaging in business that should be
conducted by private interests. 1t is
the wish of President Harding, Chair
man Lasker, and the Republican Con-
gress that the Government divorce it
self from the business of operating
ships at the earliest date consistent
with the profitable disposal of the
huge properties now under its control.

Santa Fe to Biuld New Depot at Wiley

Material is being unloaded at Wiley
this week for the construction of a new
Santa Fe depot. The old depot at this
place which was destroyed by fire on
last August was replaced by a pas
senger coach which has been used since
as depot. The new building will be
erected on the south side of the track
opposite the site of the old depot and
will be neat substantial structure. A
brick platform will be laid to the
tracks but it is not determined wheth-
er the new structure will include ac-
commodations for freight, etc. or be
used as n passenger depot, but it is
probable combination building will
be erected.
This comes as welcome news to those
of this community pstronizing the rail
road as the present accommodations
have proven very inconvenient al,
though little better than none at all

Treat Seed Grain to Prevent Smut
LOssea


Smut is one of the most destruct-
i've plant diseases of the cereal crops.
In 1919 the farmers of Colorado lost
l,l57 900 bushels of cereals from
this disease alone. Over fifty per
cent of this loss was due to those
smuts which can easily be prevented
by careful seed treatment.
The stinking smut of wheat, the
covered smut of barley, the oat
smuts, the millet smuts, the kernel
smuts of corghums. stem smut of rye
and covered smut of emmer can all
be prevented by proper treatment.
The treating of sced corn for smut is
useless, as it is very different type
of infection. Crop rotation is the
troll of corn smut. 1t has been
shown that smut spores may pass
through digestive tracts of animals
uninjured. Barnyard manure, there
fore, is frequently source of infec-
tion. The spores germinate freely
in manure heaps. Hence, it is self
evident that only well rotted manure
should be placed OF corn fields.
Since the disease depends upon
the presence of spores on the seed
at the time of termination, the prop
er method of control is to treat the
seed grain before planting. Formal
dehyde is the mcst universal disin-
fectant used for this purpose. Cop
per sulphate or Lluestone was one of
the earliest disinfectants used and is
still in use to some extent However,
several years of experimentation
have shown that formaldehyde has
many advantages over copper sui
phate. Formaldehyde seldom in
jures the seed, and can be used
equally well for an the cereals. II is
applied mare easily and there are no
crystals to dissolve. Copper sulphatc
is often injurious to the grain, and
for this reason the grain is first dip
ped in lime water. Grain treated
with formaldehyde can be safely fed
to stock after drying. 1t is somewhat
cheaper to treat grain with formal
dehyde than copper sulphate. The
use Of formaldehyde is recommend
ed; but if one has become accustom-
ed to the use of copper sulphate, and
satisfied with the results obtained, a
change Of methods is unnecessary. De-
tails about seed treatment for smut
prevention are given in Extension
Bulletin No. 1S5-"Seed Treatment
for Prevention of Cereal Smuts," by
A. X. Petersen. Write to Exten-
sion Department, Colorado Agricul-
tural College, for free copy OF bulle-
