Des lMoines, Nov. 2S.-H the labor
contracts in force at the Iowa state
prison are Cancelled the inevitable re-
suit will be to increase the death rate
among the wards of the state confined
there.
The state board of control found
upon visit to that institution the past
week that there are about $50 men used
on the contracts making tools and
furniture. All the rest of the men,
about 500 in ALL are employed at pres
ent on the cell house or on the farm.
1t has been difficult to keep all Of them
employed. If the contracts should be
Cancelled at least $50 men would he
sent to their cells to remain in idle
ness.
The experience Of all prisons is that
where the prisoners are supported IN
sheer idleness the death rate increases.
At Joliet some years ago they had lot
Of men at work and the uplifters sue
ceeded in stopping the work. 1t was
found that the number of cases of tu-
berculosis in the institution doubled
and trebled very soon.
Would Extend System.
Members of the state board of con-
troll would like to have some legisla-
ton that will enable them to put the
men to work at Fort Madison and keep
all Of them busy. "The trouble Is IN
most of these cases. said DR.. Ban
mister. that where prison makes
its own goods for sale no market can
be found. The purchasers OF the rakes,
forks chairs, etc., made at Fort Mad
ison do not know they are made there.
A good system was started in Illinois
with provision that the furniture for
the schoolhouses of the state should
be made at the prison and be sold at
cost, but even then the school boards
got around the law and wouldn't buy.
If it is provided that the state go TO
making use of the labor for factories
Of its own there must be a market
provided"
The old contracts at Fort Madison
have two years yet to run. They are
regarded as the most advantageous
ever made by the state with any con-
tracing firms. So long as the making
Of the cell house is under way there
will be abundant work for most OF the
prisoners. but this will end in year
or two more.
Attorney General Cosson and the
commission he appointed to investigate
the Fort Madison prison have been at
Anamosa, Joliet: and elsewhere while
out on the trip. They are expected

Carroll, Noy. 2s.--The big drainage
project in the Storm Creek drainage
district In the eastern part Of Carroll
county Is now in fair way to be car
ried out after long struggle on the
part OF those who have urged the mat
ter. The plan has reached point
where publication has been made of
the benefit assessments and 1t Is hoped
to have final action taken In time TO
commence work In the spring. 1t is
one of the largest drainage projects
originating in Iowa in years and 1t is
estimated will cost $4,000 exclusive
Of the tile that will be needed. which
will mean an additional $4,000 or 340.-
900.
Magnitude Of Undertaking.
The main ditch will be twenty five
miles long. with, about ten miles of
laterals. The impressive feature OF the
ditch. however, is it's depth and width.
In some sections the ditch will he
seventy feet wide at the top and thir-
ty-five feet wide at the bottom. while
the average depth will be eight feet
in the laterals and eighteen and one
half feet in the main ditch. The en-

be 100000 cubic yards OF earth to re-
move.

kicking and in fact has been the most
urgent and insistent supporter Of the
project from the start. He has had
experience in such matters in other
places. He paid an average OF $35 an
acre for his land in Carroll county

years been known as the Storm Creek
marsh. The assessment on this LAND
