WARDEN BELIEVES 3
TIMES ESTIMATE is
CONSERVATIVE

A pheasant population approx
imately 300 per cent larger than
last year was reported in a ques-
tionnaire sent by the game and
fish department to w. H. Quist,
warden here.
Mr. Quist considers his figures
decidedly conservative. Last year
he recommended a closed season,
while this year he believes nine
day season would not seriously
reduce the game. The three day
season last year occurred during
bad weather and hunters got few
shots for their efforts.

 The progress of rail transport will be presented at the fair in a huge building constructed roughly in the shape of an elongated "S", some 1,- 400 feet in length, and covering l50,000 square feet of floor space. At the side of the structure there

 The new voters who have been learning how to cast their ballots on the modern tabulator during the last week have been unable to tell which candidate was which, in terms of position, because the ballots had not been completed. With the ilorll- ination made at New Britain last night, the tickets of all parties now are complete and sets of ballots will be sent from Hartford today, il is expected.
 There are seven tickets on the machines this year, Democratic, Re- publican, Socialist, Socialist Labor Communist, Union, and Labor.
 Many of the new voters have re- quired more than the three minutes they will be allowed to cast their vote on Nov. 8 during the period Of demonstration. Numbers of the new voters have asked concerning the positions of certain candidates, eyi- dencing some inclination to vote other than straight party ticket those on duty at the machine res marked today.
