The committee on Poor House farm
made the following report, which was
received and filed.
To the Honorable Board Of Supervisors l.:
COMMUNICATIONS committee on
on Poor House Farm, who has the con-
troll and management Of said farm dur
ing the present year, and Of whom it is
expected they will so manage said farm
that the greatest amount of revenue to
the county will be derived thereirom,
with that object in view visited the said
farm upon the ODD ultimo, and would
respectfully report they found the farm
is very poor and most Of the tIlIable
soil, in their opinion, very thin or poor
at the present time, caused by contin-

proper rest or manuring SO necessary to
keep up the fertility OF soil; and the
fencing very poor Except the new

Of Ohio county, if continued as. such, for
years to come, and as such we will
have to deal with it as it came from
the hands OF our predecessors. A very
large portion of this farm is steep hill
sides, partly covered with heavy woods,
and the balance covered over with
underground of different kinds, with
here aud there cleared spot, which
produces some pasture, but this part OF
the farm does not produce the amount
of pasture it should and would ifproper-
ly cleared off and kept clean. There
was last spring some forty to fifty acres
of said farm sown IN oats, and upon
which clover seed was sown, parts OF
which make pretty good appearance,
and other parts don't look as though
it would amount to much. Upon parts
