WOMEN'S BUILDING
WILL Be REPAIRED
New Farm Superintendent
Not in Favor of New
Structure.

Frank B. Petro, who will assume
the superintendency of the poor farm
March /, will not recommend that a
new women's ward be erected, he
said today after an examination of the
building. The small number of women
at the farm does not justify the eX-
pense of such a change, he said.
1t is probable that few changes will
be made at the farm the first year ex-
cept to follow out the recommended
tions of the State Board of Charles
and Correction. Mr.. Petro has studied
the reports carefully, and said he will
follow the advice of the investigating
committees.
This deals chiefly with the poor san
itary conditions Of the mems ward
where it is charged the beds are often
unmade and the building unclean. The
womens ward in which there are sew
en- inmates, has always been commend
ed for cleanliness although 1t is in
need Of repair The repairs will be
made, Petro said.
