Christopher Anvil's "The Operator" (novelette, free): A colony short on women contrives to get them

A small community on a rough frontier world. There are some women, but far fewer than men. Then someone spots some off-world picnickers not far from their camp - many girls. One thing leads to another, until the girls eventually join the local community...

Later parts are somewhat humorous.
