the outstanding points. Mr.. Lloyd

while in nine other counties the poor
farms return a cash rental and are

failed to report. All of the six coun-
ties reported no inmates in 1914.
Because of the delay of the state in
the building of new quarters at the
Winfield hospital for feeble minded,
a number of insane and feeble minded
