FRUIT SERVED
AT COUNTY JAIL

Here's one for the statistic
hounds.
To date this year the county Jail
has served S0,694 meals to prisoners.
If that many tortillas were placed
end to end, where would they each,
and why!
For tortillas are one of the favor
ite items of menu in the county bas-
tile.
And every time a meal is served
Jailer Eddie Nett has to make Il
check mark in his books. Those in
terested might take up the family
pencil and figure out how many
tlonrishes of the hand Jailer Nett
has made during the past year.
The system of meal checking in
the Jail has been simplified to the
final degree, yet S0,694 meals call
fer good deal of checking, and the
books must be perfect.
Meals in the Jail are prepared by
prisoner cooks, in the Jail kitchen,
which means that the raw materials
must also be checked.
March was the banner month for
Grocers supplying the needs of coun-
lty prisoners. During that month
1896 meals were prepared and
served to prisoners. February runs
second with l0,224 meals.
Other months, and their total of
breakfasts, lunches and dinners
served, follows: January, 9,212;
April, G,997; May, 1906; June,
