a report in reference to the brands OF
standard articles for the istitutions.
consisting Of John Cownie, superintend-
ent Max E.. Witte OF Clarinda and SUI
perintendent B. j. Miles OF Eldora, was
continued and directed to report at
the December conference. The pro-
gram committee submitted its report
for the program in December and 1t
was adopted.
One OF the three papers read yester-
day was entitled Suggestions in Re-
gard to Purchasing Supplies" by John
Cownie. of the board Of control Mr.
Cownie said 1t was not surprising that
the boards surplus had decreased in
the past year when the Increase In VAL
ues was taken into consideration, and
the increase in salary and the wage
schedule Of July I, 1900. He said 1T was
at first thought one-third of the sup
port fund would be ample for salaries
and wages, but 1t has been found 40
per cent is necessary, leaving 60 per
cent for all other expenses. In making
suggestions concerning the purchase Of
supplies Mr. Cownie said:
In all purchases the Initiative must be
taken by the chief executive officers of
the respective state institutions and
when the funds at command permit, 4 1t IL
rarely that any changes in estimates
for supplies are made by the board Of
control. In approving the estimates
the poard assumes that the supertn-
tendent or otner. cnlef executive officer
