W In our ramblngs we called at the
Iowa County Poor Farm. Mr.. T. Thomas
showed US around the premises, both in
side and outside, and otherwise kindly en-
tertained us. While there we met our old
friend, DR.. Van Dusen, formerly of MifHin,
but now located at Linden. The Doctor
visits the Poor House regularly once a
week, and faithfully discharges his duty.
Under his treatment and the good man
agement of Mr.. Thomas the general health
of the inmates is remai kablY good, espe-
cially when we consider the advanced age
the majority have attained--the average
age of the males being Ga years, and that
of the females So years. The present
number of inmates is ls; of these are
insane.
The accommodations for the insane are
somewhat limited, all the rooms being oc-
copied, which would make it bad wei
other patients sent here. This is not as it
should be. Our officers will no doubt see
that more room and conveniencos are pro-
vided. We were invited into the dining
room. Everything looked comfortable and
clean; the tables were provided with well
cooked, substantial food; the beds and
bedding looked wholesome and clean, and
the barns and outbuildings are good, large
and in first-rate order. The farm, though
good one, is not large enough, containing
only l2O acres of land. Mr.. Thomas does
all his business in systematic manner
everything is in its proper place, and eve.
rything done at the proper time. We no.
ticed among other things that there were
number of newspapers lying about. Our
own county papers are well represented.
/ Mr.. T. is sensible man /; for he be-
lieves there is nothing more conducive to
the general health of both body and mind
than plenty of reading. Our sympathy
was drawn out toward the inmates. We
felt sorry for them-though they are com
Portable, yet they are in the poor-house
Our sympathies were particularly with

D@- The people Of Lancaster have just
completed large, commodious, and mag
nificent school house. The Herald says
:" 1t is understood the entire expense for
buildings, furniture, heat generation, &C.,
may not fall much below $4,000; but,
considering the close economy in this, COM
pared with the usual outlay for public
buildings, the property may safely be esti-
mated at $4,000. The schools are to be
conducted according TO approved order of
graduation.
There is of course to be no further use
for the Lancaster Institute, and it is to be
closed as school, The latter, however,
must have the credit of having educated
the Lancaster people for vastly more lib
eral support Of education than could be
extorted from them formerly by reason,
invective or ridicule. Lancaster may
henceforth rank among the first towns in
the State for educational support"
! What a contrast between Lancaster and
Dodgeville. Here, our school houses are
a disgrace, and we have it from good au-
thority that men who should be in better
business, threaten that they will, and are
using every effort 10 break down and en-
tirely do away with the free school system
in the place.
