Grand Jury with reference to water

chicken feed and the low price of
chickens, would make chicken rails

their beds We're clean, their beds were
clean, their food good and they had
little to do except sit by comfortable
fires and talk politics, a condition
which your committee regarded as an
altogether happy and ideal existence.
They all expressed themselves as
being fully satisfied with their food
and general treatment. Since the
last Grand Jury had visited the place
a substantial cellar has been bnilt for
vegetables, of which a good supply
was on hand,

and i'll the dry season not half so

Your committee would recommend
the building of a bath house, to
enable the inmates to wash them
selves frequently, a luxury which
could be furnished with slight cost,
and add materially to their health
and comfort.
The last Grand Jury Of the county,
after a careful Investigation of the fl
n~ancIal condition Of the poor farm
reported thatthe average cost of main
tanning the institution was S26.57
per capita, since then the cost has
been slightly increased, In 1897 the
expense was S32S5,9o, for the year
1893 it was S3437.7 10. in going over
the books in which the county indi-
gent expense account was kept your
committee was unable to find any eX-
pense account for the month OF Aug
ust for the past year. The warrants
drawn for the farm and recorded in
the County Clerks office, showed
that the expense was S245.7o. 1t
Will be seen that the expense of1nain-
tanning the farm, however, for 1898
has only been $1,000 greater than
last year. The previous Grand Jury
stated that it regarded the expense Of
S26,37 per capita in KEGS of what it
should be and further stated that res
ponsible parties were ready to care
for the county INDECENT at the rate OF
SI2 per capita per month, and recon-
