ng the Year:
cause ofDeath,

There have beer a few accidental
and unavoidable injuries, but all
promptly reco, cred, without any per
manent sequel. The most important
surgical case occurring during the
past year, was that of woman with
acute complete obstruction of the
bowels, which was found to be due
to a twisted loop of intestine, a CO..
dition only relieved by operation.
In this case, relief was immediate
with prompt recovery of patient.
In connection with this case,
wish to acknowledge the kind and
efficient assistance of Drs Schreinel
and Shee and Charles Trowbridge.
The instructions and advice of the
Medical officer have received from
Superintendent and Mrs. Wilkins
and their efficient staff, most faithful:
attention, and to this hearty cooper.
alton, there should be given the
proper share of credit, for the mainte
nanct of the good general condition
and sanitary surroundings of the pa

LIBRARIES.

Pupils in the country schools today
have much better opportunity for al
vancement tnan the pupils 70 or 81
years ago. This is due to some eX
tent to the large number of useful
books in the school library. Entire
number of library books in our schools
OF this county is 19,641, or an ayel
age of over 128 volumes for each
scnool. The amount withheld this
year for library books was $9327o,
and with this LII volumes have beeA
purchased. A majority of the dis
tricts nave provided suitable cases, SO
that books can be kept in good con
dition. In order that we may get the
IT is necessary that they be cata
logued. This matter has been studied
at the summer institutes for the last
two years and the teachers are cap
able of cataloguing the libraries when
ever district boards will provide the
necessary material. We believe that
school Libraries in charge of qualified
teachers who can advise and direct
the pupils in their reading, will pu
new life and spirit into school work,
and that the money expended, will
count as little, compared with the
good they will do.
EDUCATIONAL DEPARTMENT AT
THE COUNTY FAIR.
1t is gratifying to be able to report
that the interest in the educational
department at the county fair is
growing. We revised our premium
list last winter and tried to add fea
lures that would be helpful and bene
fetal to teachers and pupils attend
ing the fair. These revised lists We're
mailed to teachers in time for each
one to make use of it during hel
spring term of school. We were
amply repaid in the increased mum
Der of entries, there being more than
IN any previous year of my supervi.
sion. We wish to express our appre-
citation to the many teachers and
pupils of the county for their co
operation in making this department
mean something educationally.
TEACHERS MEETINGS.
Three teachers meetings were held
during the year; the first was a joint
meeting with Richland county at
Viola The other two were joint
meetings with Monroe county, held at
Cashton and Ontario respectively.
The forenoons were devoted to the
observation OF regular class work
In the afternoons we discussed the
methods used in the mornings ecita-
tons. The superintendent felt re
paid for the efforts made in arranging
for these meetings as the attendance
at each was large and the teachers
could see theory put into actual prac-
tice.
TEACHERS INSTITUTES.
The annual teachers summer in
stitute was held at Viroqua July 29
to August 10. We were assisted in
the work by Prof. D. c. Kinsma :, of
Whitewater normal; Prof. P. A. Kolb,
principal Of schools at Oconomowoc;
principal A. E. Smith of our training
school; Prof F. C. Bray, principal of
LaFarge high school, and Miss Dock
cry of the Richland county training
school. Enrolment was 1876. tn
teachers were earnest in their work
and seemed to put forth every effort
to obtain a knowledge of he best
methods in teaching This short sum
mer institute is the only opportunity
which many teachers in the country
schools have of obtaining professional
training. The institute was inspected
by State Supt. G. P. Cary, who adj

PORT.

PORT.
Vernon County, Wis, June 80, 1907.
This is to certify that we, the un-
dersigned trustees of the Asylum for
insane, Vernon County, Wisconsin,
have audited the annexed financial
exhibit, verified and compared the
cash analyst. of receipts and expendi-
lures, on account OF said asylum
with vouchers, check beck and other
documents pertaining thereto, and
find the same to be correct and to
correspond, except that IN the 14th
day of November, 1906, there was is
sued check No. 5644 for the sum of
s1.603.96 to apply as part payment on
the Fortney farm, which check was
not entered on this journal. We also
find that, on the 18th day of Novem
Der, 1905, check No. 5146 for 81, 1872
10, was entered and delivered to the
County Treasurer to apply on the
Fortney farm, and that does not APP
pear to have been entered in this
journal. These last stated fac.s have
been included in reports to the County
Board of Supervisors, heretofore
made. 1t is our design to issue an
additional check for the sum of
S1.S1394 and to cause the same to
be delivered to the County Treasurer,
which will finish paying for the Fort
ney farm. There will yet be bal
ance of $S9764 in cash belonging to
the Asylum.
