' Fort Dodge yesterday sent in a little grocery order to "the Omaha quartermaster's depot. "Bring them around to our back door September IS," Fort Dodge told the grocerman, Colonel Grant. Here are just a few-items of this order that Captain Cantlon must select, and order in ja few -days: . 275,000 pounds of suear.

Not onlvfood but manv other articles of necessity are bought Dy tne armycommissary and sold to the soldiers at cost. Uncle Sam is a good bargain hunter and the motto". "The b5st for, the least mone ," holds good at the quartermaster's depot. For twenty vears Caotain Cantlon has been buying supplies for the army. He is an expert in all lines. In the course of a day's work he p sses upon borax and brushes, chocolate and cigarsTT handkerchiefs and hominy. Each day he arises early, for thou sands of soldiers are-clamoring for" raisins and razors, syrup and, shoe strings, while countless multitudes loojc to him -o select their slaving mugs and mushrooms, their lobster ind listerine.

Captain Cantlon isn't going to rashly make that little purchase of one and a half million tons of flour that Fort Dodge wants. Not yet I Pork an' Beans. After tasting the chocolate candy, in which delightful task The Bee photographer snapped him, the cap tain turned to some substantial-looking cans of baked beans. "Let's see po'k and beans, seven thousand cans," he mused, in his vel vety southern voice. The captain happens to be a New Yorker and has lived in every part of the union but the south. How he acquired that ac cent is a mystery to all. "Here's a nice, big can comes cheap," suggested his assistant, E. E. Willard. The captain opened it deft ly, gave one glance and pushed it Laside. - ', , " " . .No tomato sauce, he commented briefly. After twenty years of cater-, ing to khaki-covered stomachs he knows the boys dp like tomato sauce on their beans. . ' i Another can was opened. This was full of fine, fat beans, swimming in rich red tomato saucei Acasual ob server would have marked it "passed" at once. But not Captain Cantlon, versed as he is in the wiles of bean canners. Picking up a big spoon he stirred the contents thoroughly and pushed this can, too, aside. "No rj'ok." was the explanation, When Uncle Sam is paying for pork and beans, Captain Cantlon is going to see that he and the boys get pork and -beans, not just beans. 1 Finally a perfect can -was found, with beans, sauce and pork to suit the exacting taster. An Iowa firm was the lucky cannery that at oncegot an order for 7,000 cans of baked beans.
