Report of the visiting committee to

Farm was received, same being as
follows:
Honorable Board of mmissioners,
Cass County,
Gentlemen:
Your committee for visiting the
County Farm beg to report that on
December 18TH. we made a visit; our
visit having previously been unknown
to the Superintendent or his wife. .
We made a careful examination of
premises. We found the quarters for
the inmates to be well kept in every
respect; rooms being very clean, floors
well scrubbed, everything presenting
a clearly appearance.
The waterworks in the north cot
tage gives frequent trouble by reason
of freezing beneath the floor, it being
necessary to keep a fire running very
close to the bathtub. We do not know
whether this condition can be RENE
died so as to make the pipes safe
without fire, but If it could be, 1t
would be desirable.
We have nothing but praise for the
condition we found things in.
Respectfully,
o. E. McCracken,
John Crest,
