CAPTAIN GOT NEW TROUSERS
incident That Has More Than Touch
of Comedy Occurred on the
Isonzo Front.

How near tragedy and comedy are in
the happenings along the. battle line
is shown by this incident of the fight
ing on the Isonzo river front.
A Capronf fighting aeroplane that
had gone from the Italian side was hit
by the antiaircraft guns and fell with
in the Austrian lines. The pilot was
killed, the observer was somewhat
scratched, but otherwise unhurt- His
trousers, however. were ripped. from
A to T.
Captain Amegliano, the captured fly
er, was inconsolable, and to an AUS
trim officer who sympathized with him
he said:
MY poor comrade will be buried
and 1 cannot even pay him my last re-
spects-not in this gear"
IF that is ALL" remarked the Aus
trian, well soon mend that" And.
after obtaining permission, he went
up in his Fokker machine and threw
a letter into the Italian line, acquaint-
ing them with the fact, and request
ing "a pair of new trousers for Cap
tain Amegliano."
Sure enough, an hour so later
there was an Italian machine high
in the air, and a package dropped that
contained laurel wreath for the dead
and a pair of trousers for the living.

A BOOK ON KANSAS ALFALFA
A Comprehensive Study Of This Popu-
lar Forage Crop Issued by Agri-
cultural Board.

Topeka-@The Kansas alfalfa book
has been issued by the state board OF
agriculture. 1t is the most compre-
hensive study of the forage crop ever
made in Kansas. The book of five
hundred pages and 373 illustrations
was compiled from QUESTIONABLE an
swered by about one thousand farm
ers in every county of the state Kan
sas is the largest producer of alfalfa
in the country. The QUESTIONABLE con-
tanned lis propositions about the
plant.
Alfalfa first came to Kansas from
Persia in 1868. Charles J. Crosse OF
Marion being given the credit of
growing the first alfalfa in the state
in 1869, when he sowed one hundred
pounds of seed. The oldest field of
alfalfa now known to be in the state
is that of John A. o. Lovania, in
Marion county, where seed obtained
in Europe in 1873 was sown, and the
plants are still producing.
There is hardly a possible question
about alfalfa not already answered in
the book. There are many special ar
ticles by authorities on alfalfa. The
present edition of twenty-five thou
sand copies is to be given to Kansans.
From the leng-continued and extern
sive experience with alfalfa in Kansas
a vast fund of knowledge with respect
to its successful management has ac-
cumulated. To make accessible, in
a compact and readily understandable
form, the essence of such knowledge
is the purpose of this report. The
book is distinctly Kansas book, pri-
marily for Kansans, and is the result
of experience and experiments by
Kansas men, under Kansas conditions,
in the field, the feed lot and the lab
oratory. 1t has been the endeavor to
combine, as a whole, the views and
ideas of both the scientific specialist
and the practical farmer. The grow
ers themselves, in replying to the
QUESTIONABLE that was sent them,
have been painstakingly analysed, di-
gested and summarized, represent es-
sential1y the point of view of the
farmer himself; while the excellent
articles by experts represent more es-
pecfally the scientific point of view.
The volume is presented with the sim
cere hope that it may be of value to
all, but particularly to the Kansas
farmer.

Returns from the Second district
are merely an example OF the manner
in which the national ticket was
swamped in the state. Congressional
districts that looked practically safe
for the Republicans are tonight en-
trenched in the Democratic column.
Five of the six Democratic congress
sional districts of the state were
retained, on the face of late returns
from all of the eight districts. In the
Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh and
Eighth districts are Democrats have
apparently reelected their congress
men. The Republicans returned An
thony in the First and Campbell in

Second Then the Democratic line

A Record Farmer Vote.
1t was a record farmer vote, cou-
pied with the vote in labor centers.
that sent Hughes down for the count
in Kansas. Dollar corn and SITS
wheat was seemingly too strong an
indication of prosperity for the men
and women in the rural districts. War
time prices for all farm products
seemed to sway the farmers and old
party lines were forgotten. With
their wives they drove to the polls
and voted for Wilson.
Especially in the small towns and
farming districts, it is probable that
Hughes lost heavily among the wo-
men. In the larger towns.,where suf-
frage organizations are strong,
Hughes was stronger and seemingly
more than held his own where wo-
men Tuesday cast their first vote for
president Estimates from over the
state indicate that the women cast
35 to 40 per cent of the vote Three
fourths of the state vote has been re-
ported On the basis of these returns
it seems probable that Wilson's lead
over Hughes in Kansas will be be-
tween $4,000 and 10000

Topeka, Nov 9.-While Kansas has
