Holt and Hil The Semi-Weekly Capital published at Topeka, is one of the best farm newspapers published anywhere. Realizing that a good market report is one of the most valuable features of a farm newspaper, the Capital prints twice a week a full report of all the markets of the world, including Topeka, and the report is absolutely reliable. It prints all the news of the civilized world fresh from the wires of the Associated Press, covering the field more thoroughly than any of the metropolitan weeklies.

But in the matter of Kansas news, it has no competitor, our large crops of special correspondents enabling us to cover the field thoroughly. Outside of your own home paper, you can get more local news from the Capital than from any other paper published. Editorially it labors unceasingly for the State's moral and material welfare. While strongly republican in politics, its editorials are fair and unprejudiced, and its news columns are open alike to the doings of all political parties.

Rabbits play in this way: Two of them I have not seen it played with more run quickly toward each other, and when on the point of contact each leaps into the air, but one higher than the other, clearing him completely. They come down with their tails toward each other, but, instantly, with an, as it were, "Excuse my tail!" both turn and run and leap again, and this they will do from two or three to half a dozen times, always leaping up at the exact moment when they would otherwise come into collision and one always taking the higher leap sometimes an astonishingly high one right over his companion. They never meet in the air, nor can I see how this can be avoided except by a plan or figure being mutually followed by them, as with ourselves in a game or dance. 1 believe that each clears the other alternately, but I have not yet convinced myself of this.
