declared that instead of 201a cents
per capita per day being the cost, the
food furnished cost not more than Z
cents a day. The sheriff had attempt
ed to show the cost to have been over
90 cents. and had stated that he would
apply for an increased allowance be-
cause of higher prices of food.
Average Elsewhere.
In summing up the case on the part
of the Citizens association, ii declares
that 11.S5 cents is the average per
capita cost of feeding prisoners at 1G
other institutions, and this sum gives
a direct index of the amount which
might reasonably be expended at the
county jail The association further
declares that the food in these other
1G institutions is better than that
served at the county Jail.
