Factory Output.
1t will be Of interest to many to
know something of the output of the
factory.
The twine plant this year Is max
ing 100000 pounds of twine, which
Is sold directly to the farmers and
dealers. The State Board OF Public
affairs has started a new factory
building which will be practically a
duplicate of the present building and
it Is expected that several thousand
more pounds may be turned out per
year, and it is planned to install sew
eral other industries in this building.
The brick yard has at present a
capacity of 10000 bricks per day;
new machinery has been purchased
which will double the output, within
the next ninety days. The demand
for brick is so great that 1t is impos-
sble to fill orders and the books at
the present time show future orders
for nearly 100000 bricks.
Practically all the clothing worn
by the inmates is made in the gar
