the Kaw valley received by the death OF
the moles and gophers. It is said that
there Is not a mole or gopher in the
valley where the land was under water
for three days The strange part of it
is that the gophers did not come back
after the flood.
Tracts of land that were honeycombed
with gopher and mole holes are now as
solid as a piece of land that had been cul-
tivated every year. In fact, there Is not
gopher or mole in the district which
was flooded. This is the opinion Of the
men who live in the flooded district. It
may seem like hunting mighty hard for
benefits from a disaster, but the relief the
farmers have experienced from the abb
sence of the moles and gophers has been
OF enough Importance to cause general
comment In the past fields have been
almost ruined by the pests. and many
horses have been crippled by stepping in
the holes in the fields.
The people in the western part of the
state have been asking for years for some
way to get rid of the prairie dog. Tho
farmers in the eastern part of the state
have also asked for some method of clean
ing out the gophers. It appears that the
only effective method is to have a food
which will keep the pests under water for
three or four days. The remedy is Sc
we're, but it is effective.

GREAT FLOOD
Cleared Kansas Of Rats, Mice, Prairie
Dogs and Rabbits.

Topeka Capital.
The greatest disaster which ever visited
Topeka was the flood of last summer. Oc-
casionally some one discovers that the
flood resulted in some good. One thing
which is a fact, however and which is a
blessing to the people of the valley, is that
the mice, rats, moles, gophers and rab-
bits have not bothered the district which
was flooded.
Prior to the flood the stores, factories,
dwellings, granaries and all buildings in
the valley were overrun with rats and
mice. Now it is SO seldom that the peo-
pie who live in the district which was
flooded see a mouse or a rat that the fact
is commented upon.
When the water got into the buildings
along the valley the rats and mice tried
to get away Some of them succeeded,
but most of them were drowned. Many
Of the rodents got into the upper stories
Of the houses, but they could get nothing
to eat and in their efforts to find food

ground was covered with soft mud for
months. The rodents attempted to gel
out Of the places of safety they had found
during the flood and went to seek some
thing to eat They died in the soft mud
The driving out of the rats and mice
was a blessing, but that was nothing com
pared to the benefit the farmers all alons

Michael Rudnick's Claim of Adj

Russell Sage has lost his suit for

landed interests Russell Sage sue

land included in the grants, but
claimed title by adverse possession,
and fought the claims set UP by Mr..
