Penitentiary SeH-Supportino.

The report to be made to the legis. lature by the state penitentiary board VIII show that during the past year and a half, the penitentiary has not only been self-supporting, but that during that time the board has been able to pay off an indebtedness of $So,o00. With good luck, members of the board hope to have S65,000 or sf5,oo0 in the state treasury to the credit or the penitentiary fund by the time the legislature meets.
 An estimate of expenditures made by Superintendent Pitcock show that the sum of s207,s2S has been expend- ed by the board during the past year and half for salaries. substinence. ciothlng and other expenses of the penltentiary. Of this amount Sl70.- oo0 has been paid by contractors who use convict labor. The remainder of the money has been raised from sale of crops on the farm. Besides the money expended by the board on the accounts included in the $207 900 debts amounting to s30 1000. were
 
 paid, which were contracted prior to April. 1905. The item of $55,016 for salaries includes s12,350 for salaries which were paid out of a specific ap. propriation prior to April a year ago. Under the old appropriation which was vetoed by Governor Davis, mon. ey was appropriated to pay salaries Of the five local officials of the peni- tentiary, but when this part of the appropriation was vetoed, the board arranged to pay the salaries out of the penitentiary fund for current ex- pense.
 During the past year Superintend. ent Pitcock has cleared GOO acres of land on the state farm, has put up a sawmill on the farm and now has on hand 10000 feet of oak lumber and 1.20o feet of cypress. Lum- Der has been furnished to erect sev. eral new outbuildings on the farm.
