The score OF this gang varies only
one point from last years score, our
recommendations made then having
been disrcgarded. We commend the
foreman for the use OF straw beds pro-
perly elevated above the ground and
for his Htforts to keep his men clean
We strongly recommend that he move
the mule tent farther from the slccp-
ing quarters, especially during the
summer, and that he pile the manure
daily, hauling it away from camp reg
ularly every week Further he should
have the kitchen thoroughly cleaned
up, and should discard the filthy oil
cloth table cover. The commissioners
should provide cthc" new tent OF,
Il screened car for a kitchen. as the
present tent is in very bad repair. We
further recommend that the foreman
raise the stores off tho ground on sills
or logs.

The county should furnish each now

CO Provide a competent colorcd
servant to assist the matron in cook
ing, washing, etc, and in caring for the
naupcrs and their rooms.
CD AS soon as possible abolish the
present fee system Of employing the
superintendent Of the almshouSc. We
have discussed this point with the
county commissioners. In return for
feeding and caring for the paupers at
the almShousc the superintendent and
his wife receive a home, the use of the
farm and outbnldings, full, and $3.50
per month for each inmate and $500
for those in bed. About onc-half the
farm. namely, 100 acres, is under cul-
tivation. We were told that this farm
is worth $l0,000.00 to $12,00O.00. At 6
percent the interest on this would be
about $4,000. We were told that with
the average population of about eight
the cash paid the superintendent was
about $4,000 per month, which would
be nearly $4,000 a year for attending
and feeding tho inmates at the county
home. The county physician receives
$4,000 year for services at The coun-
~ home. In addition the county furn-
ishcs medicines, the bedding and 9TH
cr equipment. All told, therefore, ii
seems likely that the county home rep
rescnts an annual expense to the coun-
~ Of about $li00.00. in return for
which (a) these few paupcrs arc cared
for, and (b) for a portion Of each year
the chaingang is housed in the stock
adc, which is heated by wood from the
farm. The county gets no other re-
turn, we are advised. This makes the
per capita cost about $1,000 a year.
The per capita cost at the State Hos
pital for the Insane last year was less
than $4,000 While we believe the
fee system to be wrong in principle,
we sympathizc with the county COM
miSsoncrs in the difficulty they have
had in getting superintendent to
manage this property and run the home
for salary they arc able to pay;
however, all this but emphasizes the
need for aboliShing our county aims

LEG BROKEN IN FOUR PLACES

Stratford, Iowa, Aug. 26.-E. H
Hawbaker, who lives south of this
town, was badly injured late Saturday
afternoon when a tractor ran over
him, breaking his left leg in several
places.
Mr.. Hawbaker was hauling sand at
the time of the accident. He had two
wagon loads hitched to the tractor and
was going up a grade. In attempting
to fix a coupling, he fell and the trac-
tor passed over both legs. There are
four breaks in the left leg below the
knee, one bone being broken in three
places and the other in one. The right
limb was not broken, but was badly
crushed.
