Rains and Floods to
 Benefit Soils in Farms

Des Moines, Iowa, Nov. 8. Rl- The silver lining of the rain clouds that poured tons of water over each Iowa acre during September will be visible to farmers of the state when next years crops are harvested.
 A few weeks ago, flooded streams and inundated lowlands foretold huge crop losses. But cheering statements from experienced observ- ors indicate that this years scat tered losses will be offs-t by many indirect benefits through the re- plenishing of the water reservoir.
 For many years the water reserve has been depleted. Scarcity of top soil water has interfered with crop growth and the gradual lowering of the permanent ground water level has caused shortage of well water.
 This years rains came at a season when the crops were dormant. The water thus penetrated the lower levels, and also replenished the soil water supply. It is estimated that only about 25 per cent of the pre- cipitation was carried off by the streams and that the balance has so saturated the soil that the benefit will be marked during the next grow ing season, and may be noticeable for the next three or four years.

SMITH, WAGNER IN
 GREAT VICTORIES
New Workers Also 0YerWhelm-
 inely for Referendum

New York, Nov. 3 R)-Two pro- ducts of the sidewalks of New York, Tammany proteges, had great triumphs at the polls yesterday.
 Governor Al" Smith is the first man in the long history of the state to be elected to fourth term as governor. Robert F. Wagner wrest- ed the senator l toga from James W. Wadsworth, Jr.. republican stalwart who has worn it for twelve years. Both Smith and Wagner grew up on the teeming East Side and had to work for their living in their youth. Their opponents were of aristocratic, wealthy families.
 Eventually, Smith and Wagner went to the legislature together and worked for the same measures Smith became governor and a presi- dential candidate while Wagner, a native of Prussia, worked his way through college here, studied law and became a justice of the state supreme court.
 Both have been noted vote-get- ters in their home town and it was largely their personal popularity here that enabled them to overcome the normal upstate republican ma jorities. In the case of Wadsworth, an upstate republican, however, he ran afoul of the d.: element of his party upstate, and a wing led by Francis w. Cristman of Herkimer, obtained enough votes to undermine him.
 Smith, who has been a guberna- torial candidate five times, made a great run in defeating Congressman Ogden I. Mills of New York. His plurality was 243,O77. The vote, with AT districts missing, was:
 Smith. 1,4SS.299.
 Mills, 1,205,222.
 Complete returns from the 3,1S3 election districts in New York city showed the governors plurality here was 4S3,391. The vote:
 Smith, S3S,2S7.
 Mills, 354.S96.
 Wagners lead over Wadsworth was 104o95 with 637 districts miss ing.
 The figures:
 Wagner 1,22O,40S.
 Wadsworth, 1,115,413.
 Cristman, 201,175.
 The democrats made inroads on the state ticket and elected Edward Corning of Albany lieutenant govcr- nor over the incumbent, Seymour bowman. The remainder of the ticket and the legislature went re- publican as usual.
 Referendum Passed
 The state registered an over whelming vote in favor of the pro- hibition referendum. A plurality of more than S27,233 votes was rolled up. The democratic platform urged the voters 10 vote "yes' while the

 Milk Was Issue
 In a campaign where Smith, Wag- ner and Wadsworth were avowedly wet and Mills mildly so, revolved events curiously about the issue of milk. Mills charged that Smith was responsible for adulterated milk be- ing sold in New York city. He de- clared the governor, in failing to press an investigation, "crawled in- to beer keg to escape the rattle of the milk can."
 The charges collapsed, however, in the eyes of the democrats, when an expert who analysed milk specimens at the instance of the republican committee, later said that nothing injurious had been found and that the supply was superior to most cities.
 There were minor issues of Coolidge and economy, stressed by Mills, and the latter asserted that the governor was running for office to aid his candidacy for the presidential nomination. But the governor, few days before election, stated that if elected he did not intend to leave the state, except to play golf now and then, and would devote his whole energies to his job.
 Rancor marked the campaign in it's closing days when the governor heatedly accused MT. Mills of at- tacking his private life. He threat ened to speak up," if MT. Mills did not retract and the next day the republican candidate said that the governor had misunderstood him. That ended the incident.
 Hearst Entered Fight
 William Randolph Hearst, the publisher, entered into the picture when the governor charged that he was directing the Mills campaign, and that former Hearst editor was conducting the republican publicity. The governor and MT. Hearst have long been at swords points political ly. The governor spoke his mind on the stump about the publisher.
 Analysis of the vote shows strik- ingly a line of cleavage between the republican upstate counties and the five solidly democratic counties comprising the metropolis In effect it was one state voting against an- other. Of the 57 upstate counties, only four-Albany, Clinton, Oneida and Rensselaer, went democratic.
 Smith Wins in Upstate
 The governor, however, carried a number of upstate cities, including Albany, Buffalo, Troy, Utica. syra- cuse, Binghamton and Oswego.
 Smiths victory was hailed with delight by George w. Olvany, leader of Tammany hall, who said that makes it unanimous for president in 1928"
 The governor went to the wigwam at Tammany hall during the evening and the assembled braves greeted him with a roar that shook the dusty ceilings of the historic build ing. Later, when he went to his headquarters at the Hotel Biltmore, his body guard of four detectives was swept aside and a dozen women kissed him.
