 Oranges Entered For Prizes.
 The four granges that have so far entered the contest for the best grange display are Preston City, Bozrah, Leb- anon and Norwich. The purse of S10O will be sharply contested this year. The 1913 grange tent was quite a tent. The 1914 should be bigger and better every way.

Senator Rrandesee Found Satisfaction,

Senator Brandegee, whose term ex- pires next March, seems to have been satisfactory to his state. He possesses an experience which Governor Bald win would have to acquire at a time of lie when mer do not readily adjust themselves to unfamiliar duties. IT elected he would be 76 when taking his seat. Many senators have given valu . able service at or even beyond that age, but rarely has their apprentice ship been begun in the twilight zone of life. Whether elected or defeated. we believe Governor Baldwin would hay found his declining years happier had he remained ont of the game.-Boston
