Baby farming has evidently become a thriving theatrical industry. It bean long ago, of course, but variations still seem to be in order, As much may be said for the babies in this case, since they happen to be auto- matic contrivances.

The law requires all nominating petitions for regular parties to be signed up and filed not later than Sept. 7.
