STATE BOARD OF CONTROL TO
REQUEST THAT CHANGE BE
MADE IN THE LAW.
TO RECEIVE PAY FOR LABOR
Want Inmates of Penal Institutions
to Be Allowed to Assist In the
Erection Of Epileptic Colony and
Other Buildings Of Similar Nature.

Des Moines.-Convict labor will be
employed largely in the erection OF
the state epileptic colony at Wood
ward II the state board Of control is
successful in securing a change by
the next legislature in the present
law governing public contracts.
At present the statute requires the
state to advertise for bids and let
contracts to the lowest bidder, for
all buildings costing more than $500.
The measure permitting the use Of
prisoners on public roads and public
Improvement work is thought to be
too narrow to take in the erection Of
buildings, owing to the restriction In
the original board of control law.
With the state opposed to contract
convict labor system, the state board
is up against the problem of finding
something else to keep the prisoners

ing all of the time, as the institutions
grow and the service OF the state Is
extended. II the men can be en-
ployed in erecting these structures 1t
will help solve the problem, Il is said.
"We will ask the legislature to
change the law so that it will be
plain that we can use the convicts on
the erection of new buildings" said
w. j. Dixon, member OF the board.
eve also want the measure to pro-
vide that we can pay them fair wages,
the money to be sent home for their
families, or to be held for the men
until their release.
"The state Is now making its own
brick and tile and with the statute
amended we can not only make our
own building material, but we can use
the prisoners in the actual construc-
tion of the buildings. The first struc-
ture erected with prison labor was the
cell house at Fort Madison. Special
permission of the legislature was Sc
cured to permit the project"
The state now has before 1t the
proposition Of erecting an epileptic
colony, establishing a custodial farm
and women's reformatory. In add.
ton almost all of the state institu-
lions are asking for one or more
buildings during the next biennial
period. The state board believes that
1t will be an important step to secure
permission to erect its own struc-
lures.

eoard Inspecting Institutions.

The state board OF control is now
making what is known as the South
ern tour" OF the semi-annual inspec-
ton. They will visit the school for
the deaf at Council Bluffs, the state
hospital at Clarinda, the school for
feeble minded at Glenwood and end
with visit to the Fort Madison pen.
itentiary.
Owing to the Ill feeling shown by
the people OF Fort Madison toward the
state prison, 1t is probable that the
state board will not seriously con-
slider the purchase of 1000 acres of
land in that vicinity for prison
farm, recommended by Warden Sand.
ers. II more is purchased, it will
probably be located at some other
place in the state, it is believed.
The opposition OF the authorities OF
Fort Madison to the state institution
has discouraged the state board OF
doing anything more for it. This at.
titude Of the people will probably be
seriously considered by the legislature
next January when the propositions
for penal reform come before it.
The superintendent of the Council
Bluffs, Clarinda and Glenwood insti-
tutions have asked for but few i'm
provements during the next two year
period. At Glenwood a new s125,000
building was completed this year.
After finishing the southern trip,
the board will go to the insane hos
pital at Mount Pleasant, the inebriate
asylum at Knoxville, the soldiers
home at Marshalltown and the re-
formatory for boys at Eldora. There
are few small buildings needed at
Eldora. One in particular is a man
ual training school for the boys.

Corn Stalk Disease.

A serious cornstalk disease that has
reduced the crop on some farms in
Iowa this season is under investiga-
ton by the botanical section of the
Iowa Agricultural experiment station
DR.. L. H. Pammel, who is in charge
Of the investigation, says that in some
fields the damage amounts to Is per
cent or more, due to fallen or barren
stalks or undeveloped ears.
This disease" says DR.. Pammel,
may be recognized quite readily by
fallen stalks, which look as though
they had been blown over. However,
there is this difference. The diseased
stalks break at the nodes A fun
gus parasite is responsible for the
trouble. Where It attacks the stalk,
there is brownish, and sometimes
pinkish, discoloration Of the fibers and
little mould may also be found on
the outside at the base of the leaf
sheath. The roots are decayed and
have pinkish color. Such diseased
stalks are often barren or their ears
are rudimentary. Sometimes the
stalks may remain standing where
the disease is not severe.
To help the investigation, farmers
who find evidence of this disease are
urged to send specimens OF affected
corn plants to DR.. L. H. Pammel al
Ames.

Census Of School Teachers.

Twenty-seven thousand school
teachers of the state are telling their
ages, length Of service and are CIV
ing other information concerning
themselves in census OF teachers
which is being taken by A. NJ. Deyoe,
superintendent Of public instruction.
1t is said there has not been a re-
fusal on the part of any teacher to
give her age. All of the questions
are being answered cheerfully and
willingly.
The idea of the census is that the
legislature next January will be in
formed regarding the teachers of the
state when the teachers pension bill
comes up for consideration. Up to
the present time no one has attempted
to determine what is the average age
Of the Iowa teacher, nor what is the
average length Of service. When
the census is completed there will be
data On hand which will be valuable
to the profession, the officials say.
