Report on Charitable Institutions.

Report on Charitable Institutions.
The Joint Legislative Charitable
Institutions Committee submitted
It's report to the General Assembly
OF the State last week. q A supple
mental report on the Tennessee In
dustrial School will be made later.
The committee says the Western
Insane Hospital is the largest and
best equipped of the State institu,
tons; that It'll we'll differed; that
the books, are correct, but that the
coal costs too much because of de-
fectlve heating arrangements.
More room is needed at the Cen
trail Hospital, but not more land, as
recommended by the trustees. Fire
escapes are recommended for the
colored department. Z @
The East Tennessee Hospital is
well managed, s;and the inmates
properly cared for,xs 1t is recon-
mended that 5000 be appropriated
for improvements and repairs. The
committee is of the opinion that
more money is spent than is neccs-
sary, and recommends the discharge
of one Of the physicians and a re-
duction Of the number Of attend
ants in the wards.
The Deaf and Dumb School, the
committee says, is managed by live
board of trustees, and Prof. Moses
is praised. The committee recon-
mems SLID for new boilers and
$4,000 for charging the chapel.
The School for the Blind is COM
mended, and an appropriation of
$4,000 for replacing the burned
building is recommended.
The Old Soldiers Home is in bad
shape. The buildings are in need
of paint and repairs. An appro-
priation for this purpose is recon-
mended; also that the per capita be
increased from $lO5 to $115.
Conclusions of the committee are
that $50 should be appropriated an
nually for each institution for pa
pers and periodicals; that the head
officials of some of the institutions
are past the age of usefulness; that
with one ortwo exceptions, the trus-
tees of the institutions are neglect
full Of their duties. ss

BAD ROADS, HIGH PRICES.
The Two Nearly Always Go Together
why the Farmer Loses in
Marketing His Crops.

Men who have closely studied the
markets have observed that during
certain seasons of the year when the
roads have been particularly bad over
. large area the prices OF certain com.
modities have been affected, and have
risen In value In response to de.
creased supply. In such case the
farmer able to put his produce upon
the market. when his neighbors could
not do likewise. has rcaped the bene.
fits. 1t naturally follows then that
the better the conditions OF the high.
ways In q certain locality the better
able are the farmers in connection
with such roads to realize ON their
products.
Better roads will mean. in addition
to the other conveniences, a balanc
ing element for the market. says the
Prairie Farmer. II all of the people
are to benefit from the sale OF their
products, they must be able to have
access to the market equally at all
times. Otherwise the man most
favorably located on a good road will
reap the harvest. The telephone and
the daily paper aid the farmer IN
keeping trace Of the market, but this
Information will avail him little un.
less he 10 able to deliver his produce.

DARK STABLES.

I have Just been over to one Of my
neighbors who has completed an addi.
tion to his barn. In the addition are
the stables for the cows and the
horses. 1t Is not wise for one to criti-
else his neighbOr or. at least. to the
neighbOr's face. so | did not make any
comment on the arrangements of the
stable. But, says writer In the
Farmers Review. will express the
opinion that the stables built are all
wrong. do not see how 1t will be
possible to keep them clea,. The
great objection to them is the fact
that they are on the north side oS the
barn and have no windows at all ex.
cept the small windows that are made
for the purpose Of throwing out the
manure, and which are kept covered
with slides. Through these small aper.
lures little light percolates. The
stables will always be dark and that
means that they will be always dirty
and have In them bad smells. The
man keeps six cows. and there Is but
one aperture behind the cows. Late
In the winter the manure pile outside
will be higher than the little window
which would not. Of course. be left
open In the winter anyway.
have always found that q dark
stable will continue to be q dirty
stable, no matter for what animals 1t
Is used. A man does not generally
light q lantern to find the dirt in his
stable. and that means that the stable
is never perfectly cleaned out. The
use of water In the stable that Is
dark results In dampness and mold.
