WEATHER IN KANSAS
Wet Fields Keep Corn Back and
Hinder Cultivation.

Wet, cloudy weather and frequent
rains delayed field operations in near
ly all parts of Kansas this week
farmers were able to work only or 2
days. as rule. The temperature,
however, was slightly above normal.
The wheat crop looks good sgener-
ally, altho some lodging occurred in
a number of localities. mostly in the
lowlands in the central and eastern
portions of the state, due to heavy
rains and wind, but it is believed most
of it will come up again under the, in
fluence of sunshine; there is only lit
tie damage from rust or smut. A few
wheat fields have already been cut in
the extreme southeastern counties, and
further progress in harvesting has
been delayed by rain and wet ground,
however, the crop is ready and with
will be general over the southeastern
portion this week Over the middle
and northeastern portions wheat is
blooming and turning and harvesting
will begin about, July l; farther west
and north Sthe wheat is filling and
heading and harvest is at least three
weeks off.
Corn is backward and generally
poor, no cultivation done owing to
wet soil, considerable corn was dam
aged by rain and worms, but there are
some corn fields in the western and
the state that are fair to good and
have good color. The corn is badly
in need of hot dry weather.
Worms are reported to be numerous
in all parts of the state and have
caused considerable damage to alfalfa
and corn.
A large portion of the first cutting
OF alfalfa was damaged by rain and
worms are taking to the second crop.
Barley and oats are heading and do
ing well.
Potatoes are fine, and gardens and
pastures generally good.
Fruit is fine and cherry picking is in
progress.

PLAN FOR A REUNION
Topeka Men in 1soth Field Artillery
To Meet Friday.

The Topeka men who served in the
130th field artillery during the war
will hold a brief session at the Cham
Der of Commerce at o'clock Friday
evening.
This meeting will be a sort of "get
together" affair, to discuss plans for
reunion of the entire regiment next
fall This reunion has been discussed
before, and the Topeka artillerymen
are quite anxious to have the affair
in this city. Topeka is represented by
Battery A, headquarters and supply
companies, and the medical detach-
ment.
Other citie> which have signified
their intention of acting as hosts to
the boys who hurled six-inch high ex-
plosive shells at the-boche in the Ar
come include Pittsburg, Wichita and
Kansas City, Kan.
The Friday night meeting will be
only of half an hours duration and it
is hoped that all of the discharged
both men in Topeka and vicinity will
find the time to attend.

WON'T O.k.TREATY
Senators Say Unamended Pact
Cannot Go Thru.
Three Resolutions Being Pre-
pared for a Separate Peace.

Action of Foe Regarding Allied
Treaty Awaited.
Senate Has Power To End War,

ANNOUNCE WAR ENDED

Washington, June 1S.-Separate
! peace with Germany is provided for in
at least three resolutions being pre-
pared by senators for introduction "at
the proper time"
Refusal of Germany to sign the al
ned treaty, or her signing of it, or the
defeat of the Knox resolution in the
senate are among events which sena-
tors said are likely to be the signals
for introduction of the separate peace
resolutions
AS Soon as Huns Act.
Senator Fall. New Mexico, author of
one of the resolutions expects to in
troduce it as soon as German delegates
sign or refuse to sign the Paris treaty,
he said
The Fall resolution simply declares
the objects for which the United
| complished and announces the end of
the state of war between the United
States and Germany
Senators said there is no doubt of
the power OF congress thus to declare
at an end the war it declared in ex-
| istence.
This step. they add, would quiet
| those who declare that refusal of the
| senate to ratify the treaty unamended
would mean continuance of the state
of war.
Say Treaty Can't Go Thru.
Defeat of the Knox resolution would
leave, the senate no alternative but to
make a separate peace, senator's insist
ed today, because they predict the vote
on the. resolution will show the treaty
cannot go thru unamended
Senator Knox, who yesterday opened
discussion of his resolution, an
nounced he expected to move formally
today that it be taken up by the sen
ate,
Senator McCumber. North Dakota
leading Republican advocate of the
league, and Senator Sheppard, Texas
Democratic supporter, were sched-
| uled to deliver speeches in favor of the
covenant TODAY

WAR is FORGOTTEN
How Many Fences Player ''Busts"
Now Interests Baseball Fandom.,

Chicago, June 18.-Khakf or ship
yards blue merge into a common color
in a. baseball uniform. There's no dis
tinguishing between the man who went
over there and the one who stayed
here.
Joe Jackson probably took the Sc
verest panning of all the nations base
ball men who went to the shipyards.
In the heat of the war the White Sox
outfielder was given blistering
broadside. Others who took up the
paint and putty in preference to the
pack and bayonet drew scathing fare
wells! tt
The soldier athlete was lauded.
1t may have been natural. Also it
was natural that baseball took back
its wanderers warmly whether they
came. from forced marches or the
coast marshes. The soldier got a
"day" in his honor and huge bou-
quets. The shipyard worker drew ST.
lence-until he began to deliver.
In Chicago never reference was
made to war records. The Cubs were
proud of "Aiex'' and Bill Kiliefer. But
the Sox were just as proud of Joe
Jackson, who from the start has been
busting" up ball games. Joe is re-
garded as responsible for. many q win
this year.
Baseball has declared the war at an
end. Its heroes are the men who
pitch shutouts or put 'em over the
fence with the bases loaded. :

GAVE EN- CHICKENS
Sinners Division of Rotary Club
Lived Up to Grub Promises

The sinners division of the Rotary
club proved to the pious Methodists
at the picnic held Tuesday evening
that at least one section of the club
can and will live up to advance
notices of grub pile"
From the time the Methodists fail
ed to deliver the goods promised to
the Rotarians two weeks ago until
the time of the picnic Tuesday
evening, the sinners of the club main
tanned the secret as to the place of
picnic. Nor was the place revealed in
the usual way Tuesday evening. The
picnickers met at the state house
at 4:30 o'clock and were told to fol-
low the leader, the only one of the
Rotarians who had any knowledge of
the picnic site.
The picnic was held at the Boys in
dustrial school north of the city The
chicken dinner was served by the
boys in the school who also put on
the entertainment. Short tanks were
made by Fred -Voiland and H. w.
