WARDEN GOES IN
DAIRY BUSINESS
Flynn Farm Near Des Moines. Bought
by State Board, to be Used
by Sanders.

DIES MONIES, Iowa. Nov. 1.-THE
Flynn farm, located near Des MONIES.
has been turned over to Warden J. G.
Sanders, Of the Fort Madison peni-
tentiary by the state board Of con-
troll. 1t will be operated as a prison
farm. Dairying will be developed on
the property.
The board Of control purchased the
Flynn farm as a site for a custodial
farm. The thirty-sixth general as
sembly declined to make an appro.
priation for buildings for the institu-
ton. Therefore half of the farm
was rented for the 1915 season. and
Warden Sanders was given permission
to farm the remainder.
This fall the board determined not
to again rent out any portion Of the
land. The property will be operated
under the head of a prison industry,
and will give work for as high as fifty
honor men from the penitentiary
Warden Sanders hopes to develop q
big dairy farm on the property He
has a herd now at the farm and will
increase it. Being near Des Moines
there Is a fine market for all the
milk that can be produced, the mem
bers Of the board Of control say.
Whether the turning over Of the
farm as a prison industry will mean
that the property will remain under
control of the prison and gradually be
increased in size, Will develop later
it is said. Other sites for a custodial
farm can be secured. All that has
been done so far however, ia to give
Warden Sanders entire control OF the
farm until further notice. Tho war
hot .,
one of the best methods Of redeeming
men. He has asked for big farm on
which to work prisoners.

classes have some clothing with which
they can get along, the destitute are

Must Have New Clothing.

we therefore must ask frankly Tor
new clothing and more particularly
for unmade material. Not that the
destitute In Belgium and northern
France are not intensely grateful for
second hand clothing. but as matter
Of necessity. we are forced to ask only
for unworn stuffs.
at must be borne in mind that those
for whom We appeal are living under
almost total industrial paralysis: thai
many millions OF them are idle, and
that the cry we have from them daily
is, give US something to do, give us
netting to work on, 80 that we NAV
contribute to our own support There
fore If we can provide them with ma
Iterials they will make up their own
clothing Furthermore the poor OF
belgium and northern France can de-
wise an extraordinary amount Of
clothing out Of a given piece Of cloth
and can work in such materials to
patch up their own clothing. For this
reason we are anxious to secure piece
goods as far as possible, or alterna-
lively. unworn made-up clothing.

in all the leading Belgian cities. The
