Crop outlook Good All over Colorado

Denyer.-The outlook for all crops
In general In Colorado is above nver-
age, and II the present favorable con.
ditlons continue, good yields may be
expected, according to reports Of the
United States Division of Crop and
Live Stock Estimates. Moisture con-
dltlons are favorable, and although
many crops were late in starting.
rapid growth is now being made. A
few complaints Of labor shortage are
received.
Winter wheat Is filling well, and
harvesting is commencing in some
sections. Although the crop has
steadily improved, due to the thin
stands, the yields will generally be
light. A few spring grains are now
making good growth and there Is a
promising outlook for good yield.
The corn area shows an increase,
and continued warm weather and fa-
vorable moisture conditions are re-
sulting In rapid development. The
condition of grain sorghums Is gener-
ally good.
Apples are generally above average,
although some reports Of hall damage
and heavy June drop are received.
Pears and peaches are also above av-
erage. The cherry crop Is generally
good with few poor reports noted.
All truck crops are in favorable
condition, with some hail damage re-
ported. Cantaloupes are developing
fast; lettuce Is generally good; onions
are above the average and cabbage Is
reported fair to good. Beans are gen.
orally good with few poor stards
reported.
Ranges and pastures are generally
the best In years. All classes of live
stock are In good condition with very
little disease reported. The first al.
falfa crop was thin in some sections,
and rain caused much damage during
the harvest. The second crop is max
Ing rapid growth and other hay
crops are promising.
Potatoes are reported as being
above the average with little COM
plant of excessive bug damage The
outlook for sugar beets Is considered
good.

D EvERTING to Senator Brookhart,
N the Iowan believes he learned a
lot while abroad. He says he talked
to "the living leaders Of the common
people In nearly all the countries Of
Europe" and his conclusion Is shat
economic cooperation upon the simple
principles Of the weavers Of Rochdale,
Is the only constructive idea that has
survived the war. It is the only plan
that will end the criminal trusts and
combinations In America and give to
the producers and consumers the Just
rewards Of their labors. 1t will take
immediate action Of congress along the
line Of the Norris bill to enable the
farmers to get the cost Of production
out Of their present crop. The Presi.
dent should call an extra session i'm
mediately.
Another Of his assertions Is that the
Russian soviet government is second
In stability only to that Of the United
States, and that Russia will soon be
making inroads on the grain markets
of America. He ignores the fact that
Russian stability Is based wholly on
armed force exerted by small group
of men who admit they are leaders Of
minority Of the people.
