VALLEY VIEW STOCK RANCH

Twenty-one years ago a young man
and his bride ehnigrated from Greene
County, Iowa. to Sedgwick County
Colorado, where both Of them hired
out to work by the month. After
three years of frugal living and saw
ing this young couple decided to own
place Of their own and so bought a
quarter Of raw land three and one
half miles west of Sedgwick. This
was the nucleus of the Rufus Toyne
ranch. Today the Valley View Stock
Ranch as it is called comprises 900
acres, is highly improved and we'll
stocked with thoroughbred Percheron
horses, purebred Shorthorn cattle, and
registered Duroc Jersey hogs.
Hdskey Lad No. 646873 heads the
Shorthorn herd. This bull was sired
by Village Sultan, son of the famous
White Hall Sultan and will weigh
more than a ton when in good show
shape. The junior head of the herd is
Valley Villager No. 965111. Valley
Villager carries eleven Cruickshani
crossAs coming directly from the we'll
known Villager who was never defeat
ed in the show ring.
Mr.. Toyne has young sires for sale
and will be glad to show the ranch
and his registered stock at any time.

1t is sign of the comprehensiveness
and liberality of the Republican party,
that it includes men Of these varied
types and points of view. 1t is no
narrow and exclusive organization,
bounh up to ancient ideas, but it in
cludes the mass of intelligent busi-
ness men and thinkers who are in sym.
pathy with every hopeful movement
for human progress. 1t elevates to
conspicuous positions men of all
types, conservative business men, stud
ents of history and politics like Beve-
ridge, promoters of conservation like
Pinchot. in short any kind of man
who manifests patriotism and ability
to give wise leadership. A party that
thus gives expression and opportun-
ity to all points Of view is in no dan
ger Of splitting asunder. These men
who have achieved these conspicuous
successes will be 4 helpful force in
Republican councils, and will do much
to see that the party shall be kept
loyal to all movements for human pro-
gress.

REPUBLICAN BREADTH

The recent primaries in Pennsyl-
vania and Indiana have been widely
hailed by the Democrat sympathizers
as indicating pronounced revolt
against the present leadership of the
Republican party. But there is anoth-
er way to look at it.
The two men who were particularly
the center of interest in these contests
Mr.. Pinchot and Mr.. Beveridge, are
both men of great ability and personal
popularity and power as campaigners.
Even those who preferred other can
didates gladly admit the qualifications
of these men and they will have the
regular party support.
The situation is different from that
Of 1912, when the party was just get
ting ready to split. Today the men
who lead these alleged revolts are
warm in their allegiance to the Hard
ing administration. Whether or not
they feel that the progressive bolt of
1912 proved a mistake, they see no
ground whatever for such division
today.

THE COUNTRY HOME AND MOD.
ERN LIFE

One of the big problems of rural
life has been to get the intimate touch
with the world of modern progress,
without drawing the young people
away from their home surroundings.
To get the best results for any form
of life, it needs to be closely in touch
with modern progress and with bright
and able people. This touch can be
gained through education. Students
go to fine schools and colleges, and
meet picked class of young people,
and their minds are stimulated by con-
tact with brilliant teachers and
speakers. But as a result, many
young people get. interested in busi-
ness and professional opportunities in
the cities, and think they are bury
ing themselves if they go back to the
farms or to some country town.
On the other hand, if you do not
give young people these opportunities
for mental enlargement, they have
missed something, the lack of which
must handicap them. This is the rea-
son why rural progress has Jagged
behind city progress in some respects.
There are two remedies for this con-
dition. The first is to urge country
people to read newspapers, magazines,
and books, and to maintain lecture
courses in their village centers. In
such ways they get just as close con-
tact with the world of progress as city
people can have.
The second remedy, is to urge
country young people to take agricul-
tural school and college training,
where they will get the mental en-
largement that shall increase their
constructive and thinking ability, and
at the same time will learn how to
make a success of rural problems.
When those two conditions are gener-
ally fulfilled, country life will make
more rapid progress than city life,
since multitudes of city people are
not interested in educational advan-
tages or in improving their minds.

NEW COLORADO YEAR BOOKS
WILL BE ISSUED OUT SOON

The 1922 edition of the Colorado
Year Book, soon to be issued by the
State immigration Department, will
contain many new features and will
the most complete statistical record
of the states industrial and political
activities yet published. 1t will con-
tain approximately ITO pages, which is
20 pages more than the 1921 edition
contained, and will present many new
statistical tables never before made
available to those interested in the de-
velopment of the state. 1t will also
contain several small outline maps
showing the distribution of farm ami
mails in the various counties in the
state, the distribution of acreage of
the leading crops and other agricul-
tural data.

other subject. As a result Of the ex-
cellent work Of county assessors in
collecting agricultural statistics for
the immigration Department the De-
partment is now able to present for
each county in the state practically as
full line of statistics of agricultural
development and production as is
available for any of the older agri-
cultural states. This record was be-
gun in 1919, and comparisons are now
available for four consecutive years.
These comparison show accurately the
agricultural development of the sever
al counties, and illustrate very force
fully the rapid growth of the farming
industry in many of the counties Of
the eastern part of the state, parti-
cularly those counties lying south of
the South Platte valley. Many coun-
ties in this area have more than doub-
led their cultivated area in the period
covered by the reports and some of
them have increased it as much as 300
percent. A considerable increase in
the number of farms operated is
shown for these counties. which indi-
Gates healthy increase in population
for the agricultural districts.

The records Of the immigration De-
partment indicate that the movement
of farmers into Colorado from other
states in the past eighteen months has
been somewhat lighter than during
the previous eighteen months, but it
has been heavier than most Colorado
people realize, in spite Of the unfavor-
able financial conditions which have
had tendency to halt immigration.
Reports of county assessors this year
show slight increases in the number of
farms being operated in nearly all
eastern Colorado counties and in many
counties on the western slope.
The Year Book will be ready for dis
tribution within ten days. 1t will be

NXTHEN the Irishman got into a
Wv row with his wife and she
threw plate at his head the melee
is said to have started and in the
midst of it the husband jerkingly re-
marked: "If-Pd known married
life-was like this-Td-have got
married long ago" All of which
c1rries out the general conception Of
the Celtic conviction that We must
have peace even if we have to fight
lor it.
Tolstoi preached non-resistance
which meant letting everybody walk
on your neck. This brings peace 10
the bullies and death to the meek.
Jesus turned the other check, but he
took the money changers by the
scruff of the neck and threw them
out OF the temple. So it all de-
pends when to fight and what to
fight for, which means keep an eye
out for the spurious flag wavers.
