n N American soldier hurries along the street Of a sheI-torn
~ village, keeping close to the shelter of the crumbing walls,
L n and runs up the steps Of a battered chateau.
He climbs to a room where sandbags are piled high to the
ceiling. Behind a rough counter stands a man of middle age a
man with an emblem on his arm and a smile on his face.

of French bills. She neeGS it.
"Of course you can" says the secretary. He counts the money

Northwestern Part Of State
Suffered but Farmers in This
Section Make a Good
Profit this Year

Topeka Capital: The Kansas win
ter wheat forecast made for July 1,
dropped of 5,24S,OO0 bushels from the
June estimate, because Of the low
precipitation and the record breaking
temperatures of the month, accord
ing to the report Of Edward c. Pax
ton;' of Topeka, field agent Of the

ture, issue dyesterday. The condition
is placed at 70 per cent and the fore
cast is for 91,871 900 bushels as COM
pared with the June estimate Of 97,-
114,OOO bushels. This forecast, how
ever, still makes the crop more than
double last years crop Of 46,670,OOO
bushels.
Corn, without heavy rainfall, IL
forecast at fS1,S12,0O0 bushels, as
compared with last years final esti-
mate of 12S, $4,000 bushels.
Fine In Southeast Section.
The northwestern part Of the state
suffered the most serious loss in
wheat, partially because Of the de-
fciency Of the soil moisture and be-
cause the crop was farther from ma
turity. Little depreciation was sud-
fered in that section south Of the KaW
river and east Of line drawn from
Topeka through Wichita to the Okla

crop shows that Kansas planted o.
500, 900 acres Of corn this year, which
Is 2,565OO0 acres less than last year.
Promises are made Of "a per cent OF
normal crop Of oats on Of 1881 900

5O7 900 bushels lower than the June
prediction and 1S,711,OOO bushels be-
low lats years crop. Barley dropped
from 80 per cent to so per cent con-
ditiOn during June and the forecast
is for 9,1S0,OOO bushels.

Prospects for the third cutting OF
alfalfa are not promising. The second
cutting was light. The July / con-
dition is noted at 72 per cent. Heat
badly damaged clover and timothy and
they are rated at 7S and so per cent,
respectively. A total production o.,

A few years ago, H. G. Wells wrote
q romantic novel entitled "The War
of the World" It was q story of COM
bat between inhabitants Of Mars,
forced to seek a new habitatiOn be-
cause of climatic changes on that plan
ct, and inhabitants of the earth, who
resisted their invasion. The Mar
tians fought with the weapons Of pro-
gressive science; using. swift flying
machines which hid themselves be-
meath clouds Of smoke, and left in
their wake poisonous gases which de-
stroyed man, beast and vegetation.
Jules Verne once wrote book which
was rated as the climax Of imagina-
tive folly-and "Twenty Thousand
Leagues UndePthe Sea" might now
pass for a veracious record Of COM
mCnplace journey. If the Martians OF
Wells novel had not themselves been
poisoned by our atmosphere, they
would, with their strange gases, have
destroyed the last Of the earth's in
habitants. Germany has recklessly
thrown her challenge to the world,
and boasts of her DEVILS science. Mark
this prophecy: If the war goes on
for three years. the Allies will have it
within their power to sweep her cities
with noxious drafts which will leave
no remnant to tell the story Of their
frightful fate. And the last shot Of
that war will be as nOiseless as the
flight of bat. This disclOses no mil
itary secret, for the writer is without
such information, and, of course would
not disclose it if he had it. The basis
of the guess is only this: that the Am
erican has excelled the Hun wherever
they have come in competition. In
violation of the laws of war, the Hun
has resorted to methods and agencies
which would have shocked the most
savage Indian of Colonial times. Am
erica knows how to deal with the saw
age instinct, and it is now up to hel
inventive genius TO deal with the Hun
according to his deserts. Come on
gentlemen with your devices which
slay by platoons and regiments.
