AT THE POOR FARM.
Inn prove1ments Have Been Made and Now
100 People Can Be Cared For.

improvements Have Been Made and Now
100 People Can Be Cared For
Accommodations have been made at
the county poor farm for keeping 100
destitute people all winter. This = the
largest capacity of any similar lnstltu
ton in the state, 80 far as known Dur
ing the summer extensive improvements
have been made on the property, chief
of which is the erection of a 'superIntend-
ent's house." as it il designated. This il
a story and a half frame structure with
nine rooms down stairs and long cor
rIdor under the roof we'll ventilated, and
made especially for a line Of cots.
The old original farm house has been
renovated. and the two cottages. one Of
which is used for a hospital, are the re-
mainder of the public poor house.
The sspoor farm" includes 120 acres of
land about six miles north Of the river
Kansas avenue extended passes through
a corner Of the farm The place Is open
to the public and visitors are al ways vel
come, although there are very few Of
them John Taylor Is the superlntend-
emit of the farm and his superlors ycdch
for his statement that the unfortunate
people who live with him are
given good food and plenty Of
it. The groceries ars the best
and COWS kept on the farm furnish an
abundance Of milk None Of the in
mates leave the table hungry. The in
valids get better care in the little hos
pital than the average laborer can pro-
vide.
Poor Commissioner Hale expects it
will be necessary to take care of more
destitute people than any previous win
ter during the next six months. lie
bases his calculation largely on the fact
that during the quarter just ended he
took eighteen recruits to the farm, more
than any previous quarter since he mas
been in office, which is over six years.
There are 4 great many people" he
says. aold people, especially, who can
take care of themselves fairly we'll dur
ing hot weather, but the first frost drives
them to the poor farm. There are a
number of cases we have been keeping
winter after winter, who can keep up
tOlerably we'll in the summer. The only
case L had last week one of this
kind. Old James Barrett is nearly 10
years old and has no occupation exceLz
odd Jobs at common labor. He has no
friends and we have had him a numbe
OF times before. / expect we viii have
to keep him all winter"
The office Of poor commissioner will
be conducted differently this season from
heretofore. u b to this time people able
to prove themselves worthy Of charity,
were given -four. potatoes and other pro
visions as we'll as fuel. by the poor com
missioner Now the applicants must 60
without this small assistance and GO to
the poor farm. or take care OF themselves,
leaving no middle course There is no
doubt but under the old system the conn
ty was in many cases i'm posed upon, and
the change was made largely to remedy
this feature.

The bullet proof cuirass has had a
very brief career. but the invention by
Captain Boynton Of a bullet proof shield
for infantry seems destined to a better
fate. This continuance can be attached
to a rifle, while giving that weapon full
play and protecting the soldiers vital
parts The shields can be locked together
SO as to form rampant, a device which
recalls the tactics of the ancient Greeks,
who massed their shields in similar
way Tt is calculated that, skillfully
used, the new shield would enable in
fantry to withstand the fire of the ma
chine gun and even to make the work
ing of that deadly implement impossible
1t would supersede rife pits and give
to troops in the square formation a Pc
culiar advantage. The inventors of guns
will now be put on their mettle, for
their ascendancy is seriously threatened
