THOUSANDS OF POUNDS OF
 TOMATOES, POTATOES, ONIONS
Immense Orders for Supplies for
 Troops in War Game.

Stratford, Conn, Aug. 13.-The feed in of the great body of men, engaged in the war maneuvers. has also been big problem. Many of the Cennecti- cut cities will benefit by the expen- allure of government money when their local merchants complete their contracts for furnishing supplies In addition to the regular rations which the federal government provides as steady diet for its regular organiza- tion there are a number of additional supplies which in quantity runs to big figures.
 Assistant Quartermaster General J. B.

MR. PERKINS AS A HACKER.

The man with money bags has long been under the political blanket and no one ever dreamed he was there to promote the interests of the common people.
 George W. Perkins stands out in the open as the financier of the bull moose party, and his conduct cannot be harmonized with the pretentions of the Colonel or his platform
 The New York World has looked up Mr. Perkins relations to Wall street and it's interests and it finds that he is a director in the Northern Secur- ities company, which was prosecuted by the Roosevelt administration. He is a director in the National City bank, which was prosecuted by the Roosevelt administration and the Taft administration. He is director in the United States Steel corporation, which is being prosecuted by the Taft ad- ministration. He is a director in the International Harvester company, which is also being prosecuted by the Taft administration.
 The friends of Roosevelt are alleged to have spent $7O,OO0 to carry New York city for their favorite, and The World may be right when it says: MT. Perkin is a bully progressive, and his money does not smell"

A BETTER FIRE RECORD.

According to the record of the New York Journal of Commerce. the fire record for America and Canada in July was ten million better than it has been for two years, the aggregate being S15,219,1 100 against twenty-five and a quarter millions last year and twenty-six millions and four fifths in 1910.
 There was only one fire that ex- ceeded a million in July and that was at Vancouver where the business dis trict saw S1,75OOOO worth of property turned to ashes.
 The three fires in Connecticut cost sll9.000 as follows: Bloomfield, to- bacco warehouse, SS7OOO; Woodstock, dwelling. $170O0, Hartford, storage warehouse, s1500O.
 The other large fires of the month were A hotel, theater and stores at North Adams, Mass. was a $500, ,O00 fire. Kansas City. Kan, and Tonopah, New, each had s325OOO fire, bust ness blocks being the fuel in both cases. Kansas City had also a S250, 900 packing plant fire. The one that de- stroyed the steel tube works in De- troit was a s3OO.OOO fire. A $1OO,OOO schoolhouse at Cleveland; and a s15O,- . 900 tapestry factory in Philadelphia.
 The returns for the month must have given the underwriters a new hope for the future.

THE BULLETINS SHORT. STORY.
THE SUPERIOR SEX

scrubbin' the postoffice and hardware store floors and woodwork this week. It does beat all how busy she is. She ain't hardly been home hull day since the spring house cleanin' be- gun"
 place all the time," Miss Belinda re- marked, sweetly.
 Cassius wiped his hand across his perspiring forehead and left a trail of garden soil on his perplexed brow. Well anyway, she ain't mixin' up with mems business" he answered, doggedly.
 "Oh. have we a woman postmaster this year and isn't MT. Beasley run ming theshardWare store now? Is there a woman doing that? I must be quite behind the times if there are so many changes here."
 "Everythlng's just the same as it always was. Even if you be kind of laughin at me, Miss Belinda, you know mighty well that scrubbin' floors ain't mems business"
 No, I know it's not considered mans work. It's a little too strenuous for most of the men in this neighbor hood. It would be a rather pitiful sight to see men, whose hands aren't used to holding much except a jack knife or a fishing pole on their knees all day, pushing scrubbing brush across the floor, wouldn't it?"
 Cassius' only reply to this question was grunt as he rose to bring a pail of water for the plants.
 On his return he stood with a rath- CT majestic boise over Miss Belinda's kneeling figure and said: "The polls ain't decent for women. I've said it before and I say 1t again, women folks ain't got no business In such dirty place"
 Where is the voting place for this town?" asked Miss Belinda
 Well, since the old town hall burn ed down we've been votin' in the Oak land district school"
 "Oh, that's where your daughter teaches. Dear me, you must hate tC have Amanda in such a dirty place so much of the time Cassius did not deign to reply. Ht gave Miss Belinda scornful look anC continued his work in his customary | leisurely style But at noon, having announced that he could not come back after dinner because he haC promised his wife to try to catch { 1 fish for supper, he said: Well, Mist Belinda, I guess there ain't no wa! you can deny that God made ma1 | before He made woman and gave hin l the first place in the hull of crea tion."
 Miss Belinda laughed. Then, as sh, watched Casslus slouoh away she sait to herself: And our destiny is lief to the lords of creation!"

HOW THE PRIMARIES WORK.

So far as preferential primaries are concerned they have been marked by lack of interest and corrupt prac- tices which shows they are no im- provement upon the caucus or conven- tional methods of doing business-the political boss and money bags feel at home in both, and exercise undue in fluence.
 In Missouri and Kansas last week, primary elections were held. and we learn from Missouri that "the pri- mary may be great progressive in- stitution, but the republicans of Mis- souri are not infatuated with it. Most of them were very busy with their farm work Tuesday and others found it delightful day for fishing,' or, in other words, the rank and file of the party did not turn out.
 The. Kansas City Journal says: Tn Kansas the spectacle is presented to- day of a minority candidate appar- ently nominated for senator on the republican ticket, through the opera ton of the primary law passed in the direct interest of progressive reform. It was Stubbs own law, passed by a progressive legislature. The republi- cans of Kansas have declared ty a majority of something like 10000 that they do not want Governor Stubbs for their senator and that they do want Senator Curtis for another term. Yet because Stubbs, on the face of the unofficial returns, has carried a greater number of legislative districts he will probably be the nominee and the nom- nation may, other things being equal, be regarded as equivalent to election.
 The situation is simply one more proof of the spurious nature of the reform involved in the progressive primary law which makes it possi- ble, in the ostensible name of the peo- pie, to defeat the emphatically ex- pressed preference of the people. When a majority of 10000 can be nullifled by a law supposedly in the interest of the people, there is something wrong either with the law or with the kind of reform on which it Is based. or bnth

HOW WE ARE ADVERTISED.

The Bristol Press says: Down in Norwich there is an amusement park that obviously needs investigation. When the proprietor refused admit tanoe to five petty officers of the U. $. navy because they were in uniform he did more than subject himself to con- tempt for his insult to the service he raised the suspicion that there are things about his place that he did not care to have the officers see"
 Since Lincoln park is a private en- terprise in an adjoining town, some i've miles away, controlled by Norwich capital, there is no reason for attach ing the name of Norwich to it.
 The Waterbury Republican is prompted to give us a dig for this incident after this fashion:
 "To the diseased, the pervert, the white slayer, the drug fiend. the pick pocket. the undesirable in all walks of life who mingle with the crowd, the gates are wide open, many of the questionables being admitted free, but to the clean, manly, we'll groomed, en- listed men wearing the uniform of the navy admittance is refused"
 The Bulletin likes the spirit of these remarks, and if the facts were true would not hesitate to endorse them or to protest against such manifest in- justice which closely approaches an outrage
 The Bulletin does not think it was he uniforms, but the impression the men in them made upon the man. agers when they went there with the crowd for pleasure and recreation. The managers have the good name of their enterprise to protect, and 1t was in their own interest rather than from any deep-seated, unpatriotic prejudice which prompted the managers to shut these young men out of the dance

Miss Belinda, at her summer home, was setting out bed of vegetables with the help of the man she employs by the day when she can entice him from his old fiat bottomed fishing boat.
 Tt was real smart of you to raise them there little plants in the city and bring them out here" he said. You'll have tomatoes and eggplant before any one else. I don't see how you ever come to think of them things. It beats all how some women can plan ahead moren men folks Now, that patch of onions and lettuce you put in last fall before you went away has turned out fine, ain't it?"
 Pm glad, Cassius, to hear you speak highly of .women's ability" said Miss Belinda. T think we women will have to get you to work for us this summer
 "Ain't l workin fur you now?" asked Cassius, mystified. Some O them fellers that go by to the creamery mornin's before you get down to the garden run me bout workin' so much for woman But I always say that I don't see why your money ain't as good as anybody's. And l will say this, Miss Belinda, it's a sight surer than some folks money"
 Thank you, Cassius. I'm happy to know that you're satisfied and that you believe in women. I hope you'll help women get the ballot this fall.
 Get the ballot? How are the women expectin' to get the ballot Cassius laughed.
 They're expecting to get it in this state through the referendum Miss Belinda paused but as Cassius did not appear much enlightened she contin- ued: You see, the question of wo- man suffrage is to be voted upon next November in Wisconsin"
 "I ain't heard nothin' about it, 5 Cassius thrust little seedling into the ground with masculine roughness that ended it's young life. What dc women folks know about politics. any way?"
 "Even you don't appear to be fully informed on all the present issues, declared Miss Belinda, laughing.
 Well. I ain't never been one to be- lieve in women gettin' out O then place"
 Just what is a woman's place, Tt really like to know
 well, I think a woman's place II at home. I don't never want to set my wife gallivantin' round to th' polls. Her place is at home"
 That reminds me" said Miss Be linda. pleasantly. T need some on' tomorrow to help my maid wash th' curtains Can your wife come al usual?'

IDEAS OF A PLAIN MAN
Genius Has Its Limitations; Stupidity
 Has None.
DIR. FRANK CRANE.

In spite of the fact that the metric system of measurements is establish ed, practical and simplicity itself, Eng lishmen go on using their outrageous pounds, shillings and pence money, Americans their cumbersome acres, yards and feet, apothecaries one kind of ounces and grains and jewellers an other, diamond dealers measure by landsmen have their miles and seamen their knots.
 Great cities have their communal waterworzs and central gas and cleo tric lighting and power systems, but hesitate to install central city heating plants, which, 1t has been shown, can be inexpensively operated from the waste of steam or power houses
 Moral leprosy has been tolerated in kings, and while the whole world was kow- towing to the old reprobate, Louis XIV of France, they were burning women for witchrhaft and exiling their most industrious and honest body of citizens for heresy, that is, for diff ference of opinion.
 Long after the upper-class idea has disappeared from America, we will continue the useless and obstructive senate.
 The introduction of machinery, which has everywhere raised the wages of la bor, was fought by the Iaborers with rioting and bloodshed.
 Though scientists have demonstrat- ed the waste and unreliability of gold or silver as the basis of money value and shown that a universal dollar is practical, we go on doing the worlds business upon the fuctuating stand ards of the value of metal. Though the days of life are few. and there is much to learn that is useful we still cram Greek and Latin into school children.
 Truly, Genius has it's limitations; stupidity has none"
